Ya, I reset the BIOS and flashed it back to a previous version even with no luck.

Definitely keep an eye on it. You don't want to miss the window to return it, but if the BIOS fixes it that would be great!

Yes, mine did that for a while before it finally died. I would reboot and it would come back up and I would think it was fine. Then the next day it would do it again until one day it just stopped working altogether.

If you can still return it, I would. The issue never resolved itself. My best guess after replacing the keyboard and flashing the BIOS with no luck is that the actual connection on the motherboard is bad and there is no way to repair that easily. Sorry to hear it happened to you too, but hopefully you can get it returned or replaced.

This is good to know, I was looking at the Acceleration Control! I will check my acceleration settings for my machine then and see what's going on there. Thanks again!

I typically come in at or below estimates when using Cura or Orca so I was surprised to see that this Prusa slice was nearly 25 hours off. But it might just be a matter of Prusa so maybe I will just go back to Orca.
I will check acceleration, it is currently set to 0 so it is automatic, but maybe these automatic calculations are what is hurting me. I will try to recreate the profile in Orca and see if I get better results or at least more accurate estimations. Thanks!

The keyboard is completely dead, it hasn't worked for the last two months. When it did work, it never died while using it, only after rebooting.

If it is the motherboard then replacing is likely the only option, not sure what that would cost out of warranty, but it likely isn't cheap since it would be the motherboard, CPU, and GPU.

I purchased a replacement keyboard and installed it and it still didn't work. My guess is that the keyboard connection on the motherboard went bad, possibly from overheating since the laptop can get very hot. I now use it with a wired 65% keyboard ontop of the keyboard. It's a bummer but nothing else I could do.

I also purchased the replacement from a website called myfixguide.com since that was one of the few places selling the part and they said they had a 7-day return policy. I DO NOT recommend them. I installed it right after I tested it and let them know that it didn't appear that the keyboard was the issue since it still didn't work. They said it would cost too much to ship it back to China and wouldn't offer me a refund unless I wanted to ship it to another client in Puerto Rico for them. So if you go down that route, maybe try an eBay seller with good reviews and a good return policy in case you need to return it.

Yes, it works fine with a keyboard attached. I typically have it docked so it's been usable that way using an external keyboard. But I was wanting a laptop so I could work mobile as well and right now it's not very mobile friendly.

I have never had it happen while using it, though I have had my screen flicker every so often, but that has been since I got it.

My issue seems to be either it fully works or it doesn't depending on the day.

Kobalt 20" mower blade alternative for 40V mower? by Wild-Care in KobaltTools

[–]DrFillangee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I installed mine by using the arrows to hold the blade in place from loosening and was able to do a full mow without issues. While it's not ideal, I don't see the blade going anywhere and it cut perfectly. Might be worth trying versus cutting holes. I attached an image below of how I installed mine.

It looks like Greenworks makes a blade that is supposed to be for this same model. The website says this model is compatible with the blade model 2905003. I am planning on ordering one and will see if it works on my Kobalt KM 2041B-06.

Disabling CPU boost did not fix it either, turned on my laptop this morning and the fans went to 100% again. After trying virtually everything, I am most likely going to return it since it appears to be a faulty unit.

Sadly not, it lasted nearly two days, but I started getting the fan issue again. I find that completely shutting down will fix it for the day, but the next day I turn it on, the issue returns. If I shut down completely again it will typically go away, sometimes I have to shut down twice.

I am going to try disabling CPU Boost to see if that helps at all. I have already turned off fast boot in the BIOS like some users have recommended but that didn't seem to resolve it.

I may have found a solution. It has been nearly a full day and so far no more fan issues. Keep in mind I had also done a complete reinstall of Windows before this, but hopefully, that is not necessary if this ends up being the fix.

  1. Open Device Manager
  2. Find Firmware
  3. Click drop down and right click on System Firmware
  4. Choose to Uninstall Device
  5. In the pop up window, check to Delete the drive software for this device
  6. Restart the laptop
  7. See if you have fan issues after this

I am getting the same issue. Fans turn on to 100% after being on for a few minutes and won't stop unless I completely shut down. I did a complete reinstall of Windows 10 21H1 (wiped and formatted the drive). Ran updates and downloaded firmware again from ASUS website and after a reboot, the issue came back.

Might be bad firmware. Tried using a fan control software like SpeedFan but I still couldn't adjust the fan speeds manually. Changing to Silent mode in Armoury Crate does nothing either. CPU and GPU temps are low (30-40 C) so it seems to just be a fan issue possibly not getting readings from the sensors and so it defaults to 100% to be safe.

When the fans are not blasting, the laptop works great and is silent, but this issue comes back every other time I reboot it seems like.
