So I'm working on the Krypton today, and was fussing over the touchpad that I still struggle with (fat finger syndrome). I went to kick it off with FN+F1 and messed up. Hit Fn+1 instead.

Every fan on the machine kicked in and went full bore until I hit it again. I haven't seen that documented anywhere. I wonder what else it does that I don't know?

Sounds like an easter egg.    A quick check does mention that on some Sager laptops, 8150 specifically, the FN +1 hotkey is an undocumented shortcut to kick the fans into high.  For some its on/off and others every press kicks a different fan on high and then off with final press.

Interesting. Big%20Smile

Yep, Sager's have done that for as long as I can remember. Big%20Smile

Sounds like something the design team setup as a backdoor for service reps, bench setups..... 

Good to know. Big%20Smile

Just answered my own question.... Clevo, too.  Strong
