Use the<\/strong> arrow keys to navigate to “Fan<\/strong> Always on when A\/C Power,” then press “Enter” to enable it. Press the “F10” key to save the setting and exit the system BIOS.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n To remove the fan, disconnect the<\/strong> fan cable from its connector on the system board. Remove the two 3 mm P1 Phillips-head screws that secure the fan to the top cover and system board. Lift the fan off of the top cover and remove.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Look for an air vent on an outer edge of the laptop; there should be a nearby access panel on the bottom. Unscrew that panel and remove it. You should see the<\/strong> fan<\/strong> right underneath. Your mileage may vary, but the three laptops I have here all have panel-accessible fans.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Vacuum the vents with a handheld vac or dusting attachment on a household vacuum cleaner. Blow the dust out of the vents using compressed air (available at most computer and electronics stores). Be careful to angle the<\/strong> air flow away from the computer to ensure you do not blow the<\/strong> dust further into the<\/strong> computer case.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n It can be scary to hear your computer make a grinding noise when you turn it on or even just suddenly after running it for a while. The only components that can make this kind of noise inside a computer are mechanical moving parts, such as cooling fans or drives (hard disk drives or optical disc drives).<\/p>\n When a computer fan spins loudly for a long period of time, there might be an issue with a fan, or the computer might be overheating. Adjust the power settings, clean the fan vents, check for suspicious processes, and then update the BIOS to help reduce the internal temperature.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Most laptops use fans to cool components that would otherwise overheat. Typically a laptop will have one or two fans cooling the main processor and graphics chip. Many designs use a heatpipe system to draw heat away from these components, with a single fan cooling a heatsink which is attached to the heat-pipes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n DO NOT touch the hair dryer to the case or anything in the laptop. It will build up static electricity and wreck your notebook. This is the same when folks clean out the insides of a desktop with a vacuum cleaner.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Get a compressed air can and a small brush. Use the compressed air to blow the area where your laptop fan is located. Use the brush where compressed air won’t do much. Keep repeating until you feel all the dust (or most of it) has been cleaned.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Just disconnect battery & adapter & then Press & hold the power button for a 30 seconds & then tun it on only with the power cord . thats the right way to do a Hard reset .<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Most causes of the Laptop fan running constantly can be traced down to high CPU utilization caused by Windows updates or other applications. When CPU utilization runs high the CPU gets warm and the fan will run to control the thermal temperature of the CPU.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Dust is the most common cause of laptop noises. Dust damages your system in various ways including obstructing your laptops fan, which causes it to make loud noises. Your laptop’s processor is essentially its brain; hence, we advise that you clean the processor’s cooler from time to time.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Use the arrow keys to navigate to “Fan Always on when A\/C Power,” then press “Enter” to enable it.
