Lenovo P50 Blacksreen

[Enderman117]

Hi, I have a Lenovo P50 Type 20EQ. With Specs i7-6820HQ, 32GB DDR4 2133mhz, Quadro M1000M Graphics, W/ Intel HD Graphics 530. I also have the latest BIOS update installed. So If I run TPFANCTRL, with discrete GPU only, the laptop goes to a black screen ( I am running Windows 11 Pro) If I try Remotedesktop, as the laptop is still on with the blackscreen, a few seconds pass by, on remote desktop seem's its loading something, and says the display componets failed to start. With Hybrid graphics, I get a BSOD Saying something like VIDEO_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT_THERMAL. How do I fix this?

Hi, you can refer to issue #23 for this, but in short we don't have a complete fix yet, best solution we have right now is with pre-release v2.1.5B where the temperature seems to still be broken, so only use it in manual mode with fan speed set high so it doesn't damage the device.

Hello so the issue is that, I set the fan speed to the max speed 7, in manual mode. The tool keeps on switching to Smart (TPFANCONTROL.INI) So I cant use manual mode. Any fixes?

Hi, the program switches to smart mode if the temperature is too high as a protective measurement, you can increase the ManModeExit value in TPFanControl.ini to modify this behaviour.
