The sensoe will be on the mainboard somewhere, though I don't think you can actually disable it.
Why do you suspect it?

thanks for your reply

i suspect temperature problem as when i power up the processor cooling fan starts up immediatly and from that point on nothing happens and the only way to switch off is to remove power and the battery

Hey,
Got almost the same problem with my presario V6123US laptop. Problem I have is when I turn it on. The on button stays lit for like 2 seconds and thats it. Will not power up. I know it;s not the charger/plug or battery as I tried them with my laptop and they work fine.
I have tried without battery but no luck. I have also tried another way, i press on the power button for a while and it turns on, the fan spins and then the fan stops functioning and nothing happens; basically the lights are on but nothing is happening so I have to remove the battery and power to get them to go off...

Any ideas on this?

Regards,
