Answer» hey my laptop starts every time it warms up the fan starts to move when its very hot but it then STOPS again some times the fan moves at high speed but it doesnt really cool is there a program wich controls the fan of the laptop.What is the make and model of your laptop? my laptop is an acer r59 Still comes with a fan. Did you clean it?im not trusted to open my laptopHow to clean out a laptop fan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yyEVSkz_0M Also, download SpeedFan and give it a try.cleaning the fan my laptop does not have a fan panel and i dont have compresed air Quote from: computer 12 on March 04, 2012, 07:31:11 AM im not trusted to open my laptop Then have someone do it. Laptop fans should be cleaned out every year or so if they're not maintained by the user with compressed air. Quote The reporter has made the following comment: Computer 12 accidentally hit the report link.I'm still laughing...The fan should speed up or SLOW down depending on how much heat is building up. If the laptop gets too hot, the fans will speed up to cool it down and then slow down accordingly. It will NEVER be completely cool, and a normal laptop working at normal temperatures will be sort of warm. If you have a laptop on for a long time, heat is normal. If you fan is constantly running at a high speed, or if the laptop shuts itself off and feels incredibly hot - then yes, the fan and overheating is an issue and you should look into cleaning it. Also be sure you are using the laptop on a hard, flat SURFACE, and not actually directly on your lap or directly against any other clothing or fabric. This insulates the laptop and causes it to heat up faster. They make special lap desks if you need to use it close up. Hope this helps.These guys are exactly right ! My laptop would act similar. I downloaded speedfan and stsrted watching the temps, and sure enough as it warmed it would BEGIN acting silly. I watched a video on youtube on how to disassemble my laptop and gave it a good cleaning.. The temps now run cooler and the PC is running fine... Speedfan has many options and a lot of uses. If your using a DELL laptop there is a setting to tell software that you have a Dell ! |
