What do you mean by "like hell"?

If you have a computer with variable fan speed, you have a pretty recent computer. Chances are that the "like hell" setting is the setting my 4 year old computer have by default and which never change.

Of course, there is also a chance your fans simply need oiling - a mixture of silicon grease and machine oil applied to the axle may fix them up just fine.
