Gateway 700 Series Variable Speed Fan and

Double Layer Recordable DVD Drive

Variable Speed Fan

Your Gateway 700 series desktop computer has a built-in variable speed fan. This fan runs

at high speed when your computer is first turned on, and may run at high speed when

it is running several programs at one time or when you are playing a graphics intensive

game. The fan runs at normal speed at other times. You may notice an increase in the fan

noise when the fan is running at high speed and a decrease in the fan noise when it

switches to normal speed.
