Take a look at it, the developer offers a demo for it. I've already had higher fan speeds before by using a free tool, but this was not enough for this task because it would have required to overall set the speed of the fan way higher than necessary because it offered only one setting.

This way I keep my mini always way below 65☌ and it usually is still comparable silent. I've bought a really good tool to override the control of my temperatures and fan speed which offers a complex way to setup fan speeds for different temperatures. My mini runs perfectly since I've cleaned it from dusty and raised the fan speed (zero problems since then). Just never let it reach high temperatures again. If it happens just after restarting a hot machine then there is still a good chance to keep the mini alive. If this happened at a fresh restart of a completely cool machine than it is a really bad sign. So possibly sooner or later all Mac Minis with a HD 6300M might fail? They say "Production faults of the AMD graphics chip in the Mac Mini Mid 2011 have become known" (“ Bei Mac mini Modellen aus Mid 2011 wurde ein Fehler in der Produktion von ATI AMD Grafikchips bekannt.“) I hope it really was just overheating and my machine is fine now – but this is scary: I found a german company (smartmod) which offers a special repair service for the Mac Mini 2011 with Radeon HD 6300M video issues. Since cleaning from dust (8 hours ago) I had no more video issues so far although I had a permanent load on the GPU (Unity 3D) all of the time and even ran GPU benchmarks to provoke the issue. I've cleaned the Mini from dust with air (if you do that you should block the fan with one finger otherwise it may generate power which can damage the logicboard) and set higher base RPM for the fan with smcFanControl (3300 RPM). Some minutes later the it showed video issues again but I could do a regular shut down. After a short pause and a restart the GPU temperature was still way too high (80☌). Today the screen went pink with vertical stripes and my Mac Mini freezed. Wait for solution with fingers get crossed, haha.I had the same issues here (Mac Mini 2011 2.5GHz).
#Mac mini server 2011 cpu Patch#
Too many clues and multiple bugs appeared at the same time, made me confused, RDC of MS-Office, Lion, and Thun-di(oh, just added patch from Apple, TT). I feel strange, 'cause the feature worked fine yesterday, but not today, and the 'Thun-di''s gone randomly. But, when i did switch to 'desktop 1', RDC just switched to 'desktop 1' and remained in 'full screen mode'.
#Mac mini server 2011 cpu full#
when i added one more desktop from 'Mission Control', ran RDC in full screen mode from 'desktop 2', it should just remained on 'desktop 2' when i switched to my original 'desktop 1'. Plus, I found some interesting bug for the 'full screen feature' of RDC of MS-Office, which is sometimes got confusing which 'desktop' it should use. Well, I'll try to find the pattern anyway if the same thing happens again.Īnd, for your information, those happened while i was using 'Remote Desktop Connection' from MS-Office, which i set as expanded 'full screen', targeted Thun-di, (I've mentioned i'm using dual display, Dell 2311H and Thun-di above reply).

I'm sure you've done this already because it's dated 19, Sep.
#Mac mini server 2011 cpu update#
Well, i've just patched firmware update for Thunderbolt display from Apple customer support site.
