Force CPU fan to run full speed.
1st time Mac buyer here. I just picked up a iMac G5 17" 2Ghz at the Apple Store on Saturday.
Anyway, I've got what seems to be an excessively loud fan noise when the processor is pushed. So I go to the Apple Store and let a Genius look at it. He somehow got the processor to run full speed by booting into some command line thing. The CPU fan began to run full speed and got loud. It seemed really loud to me but he told me it was normal for this computer. I'm not so sure.
I'm thinking about going to CompUSA or Fry's and try running the fans full speed there to see if it sounds like mine or not. I don't know how to do the thing to make the fans run full speed. Can anyone help me out?
THANKS!
