![]() This leads me to think that the cable is indeed intact and properly connected. In addition, I know that the fan currently runs lower than if I start the computer with the cable completely unplugged (I have tested this). I have, however, ensured that the cable is properly installed. I have done research into this issue, and several people have stated that this is the result of not correctly plugging in the hard drive temperature cable. If I try and do anything such as use Safari or update the machine, the fan speed goes back up. The high fan speeds continue while starting up, and the speed lowers when the computer is idling on the desktop. When I first tested the computer without a drive, it was extremely quiet, but after I followed iFixit's guide to replace the hard drive and installed Lion, the fan is extremely loud. The machine is a 1.83 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo model with 2 GB Ram and came without a hard drive. ![]() I recently bought a Mid-2007 Mac mini from my university surplus store.
