820-3115 - Fan on high.

[gcain]

I ran ASD OS and got;

Check that the CPU heatsink is properly attached, using product spec theta dh + 75 percent guardband.
Error -- 255 [Unknown result code 0xff]

I have removed, cleaned and reseated the heat sink with some nice fresh thermal paste.

Run ASD EFI....

 

[gcain]

ASD EFI passes no worries.
Run it three times now.

 

[dukefawks]

Check all temp sensor readings in ASD hardware profile. No fan error in ASD either?

 

[gcain]

Only error in ASD is the CPU Heatsink one.

Will check the readings now.

 

[gcain]

I don't notice anything odd in Hardware Profile.

All 'reading' are at a reasonable value between high and low for everything.
The fan says Low: 2000, High: 6200, Set: 6200, so technically it is correct too.


Edit:
Except AXG VCore Voltage is 0v.

Some more info;

The machine is slow. Booting of an SSD takes longer than you would expect. This is a known good install and known good test chassis.

The activity monitor shows 100% CPU usage.

 

[dukefawks]

Any history on this machine? BIOS chip messed with?

 

[gcain]

Not sure on history, came from another shop.

Board looks really clean and tidy. Doesn't appear to have had anyone mess with it.

 

[dukefawks]

Tried without battery?

 

[gcain]

Yes, it has been bench tested with known-good everything I could think of.

 

[dukefawks]

I really don't know. Make a few pics of all sensor readings in EFI ASD, maybe I can spot something.
