Fan switch on permanently

There are no particular and avid processes. This problem, once which
manifesting itself,  exists indipendently also with other OS.
I can understand that is very difficult to find a resolution or its cause,
but is very strange. In any moment the fan is out of control and works
indipendently of the temperature. *Until to the Bios formatting. *

Can, for example, a kernel under testing affect the bios directly ?
