Solve : sound from notebook computer?

1.	Solve : sound from notebook computer?
Answer» I have been using my laptop computer for the 2 years and i have had no probems with it. But now and its been like this for 1 month the computer makes a noise. As i understand its caused by fans. The noise starts, keeps on for 15 sec then stops for 15 sec, then comes again for 15 sec, then stops again, and its like this over and over again, all the time. The noise is quite annoying, if it was permanant like on old laptops it wouldnt maybe even be as bad as its now What could i do to make this noise not appear? Maybe i could screw out the screws and take the bottom part of it apart, but can i do this with a laptop. Im such a not GOOD user that i dont know if may do that with a laptop If anybody can give any hints me what to do i would be very grateful If you wouldn't know what you are doing once you're INSIDE it's best to just leave that alone. It could be a FAN, or aheat sensor. WHat brand and is it still under warranty?Check out this excellent guide. Kudos to Chaz. Quote If you wouldn't know what you are doing once you're inside it's best to just leave that alone. It could be a fan, or aheat sensor. WHat brand and is it still under warranty?
