• (Redirected) The Alienware 51 x fan noise and how I fixed it

  My fan noise escaped from the GPU.  It was as if something was touching the blades of the fan made a rattling noise very rapid making stronger that the fan is accelerated to cool the GPU.  I took the GPU to one when I did I saw the problem immediately.  A thread that incorporate in the fan blades well.  I repositioned the wire, everything closed upwards, and it works fine now perfectly silent.  I can see where quality assurance has not found this problem since I felt that way during the expedition.  I have a slight Alienware/Dell for not doing a better job with cable management.  I don't want to say so far, I like this new computer, I got the X 51 high range and it works any faster than greased lightning.

• Pavilion 15 p248ne: loud fan noise and vibrate

  Hello, so he started to happen when I move the laptop one day (when it's on) fan me all of a sudden very hard and the laptop everything vibrated, it sounded like the fan was touch something running which makes vibration and noise, it sounds exactly like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkCLubSukzI I fixed it by restarting the laptop (sleeping too work looks like everything that makes the fan stop) but now It happens randomly, the normal fan noise has changed and there sometimes as fort again, as demonstrated in the video and then I have to restart to fix it. I tried to open up the laptop, but a few screws were too hard and stuck lol so I gave up. and I cleaned the vents of the dust.

  Hey @amro2,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  You mentioned that you hear a thud and the HP Pavilion Notebook - 15-p248ne vibrates when this happens. You thought that it sounded like the fan touched something in rotation. I also watched the YouTube video that you had provided for me. This was very helpful! Thank you.

  Perhaps one of the possibilities is that the fan should be cleaned.

  Even if you had not indicated that you do not encounter any problems with the heat, there is a document called a Fan is Noisy and runs constantly. This document has troubleshooting steps that may help. I realize that you don't have more intermittently as you a question on a regular basis, however, the steps described in the document can lead you in the right direction for resolution.

  I'll provide you with HP Pavilion 17 Notebook FHCP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service of Guide for your reference.

  If none of the steps above help, and the laptop is still under warranty (please use the auditor of the guarantee if you are not sure), I wouldn't open Notepad. While opening the laptop should not void your warranty, if any damage is caused during the process without contacting HP Support then it can void your warranty. If you are still in warranty, please use the following link to create yourself a file number:

• This PSU and GPU will work with my dell inspiron 660?

  Hello

  I got my dell inspiron 660 earlier (2 years ago) and was thinking of upgrading the PSU and GPU (I'm not a big PC gamer so cheap products, I chose will be much used) anyone of you could tell me if it would be compatible with my inspiron and between them. And if not could you tell me some compatible CPU and GPU, my spending limit is £90.

  GPU - Asus GeForce GT 610

  PSU - power supply 600W Sumvision power X 3

  Thanks in advance,

  I think that the 660 has a 300W power supply.  What is the Min requirements for the GT 610?  I think you could slamming in there without having to upgrade the power supply at all.

• overheating and strange smell on Dv7 notebook

  I noticed that my system seems to be overheating and has a very peculiar smell. In fact, I thought he had a problem with our oven, so I kept in the basement to check it out.  However, it turns out my laptop being.  I used air jets to clean the vents, I cleaned the vacuum evacuation holes, but this thing continues to go into overdrive on the fan.  It blows constantly, and the laptop is very warm, if not hot, touch.  I also noticed that my system is very slow at this point.  So, I constantly have to shut it down.  Is there something I can do, or don't do that would fix this?

  This smell actually makes me cough, and my throat is sore.  I really need to find the source and fix it.  I use a LOT of my system.

  Thanks for your help, and here's my card on my system:

  HP Pavilion Dv7 core i7 2.20 GHz Intel

• Fan noise and satellite R20

  Guys,

  I bought the Satellite R20 tablet pc with the intention to take it to my classes. There is a serious problem, though – the top fan is REALLY loud, it fits like a turbine sometimes - and disturbs the whole class.

  Is any way to solve this problem and make the laptop to run in silent mode?

  Also, I have problems with the battery... it will hold only 1 h 30 minutes MAXIMUM.

  Overall, I am very disappointed with the purchase, the device is SO bulky! :(

  Thank you much for the help.

  Hello

  Sounds like the fan needs to be replaced, or it has something stuck inside.

  Take it to a service center authorized to repair.

• HP DV7-4020sa fan - cleaned noise and still make the noise

  Hello.

  I need help with my laptop. It is a DV7-4020sa.

  Since I bought the laptop (used) the fan made a horrible squeaky sound. I decided to fix it today so dissambled laptop computer and gave the fan a good clean and also put some wd40 on the axis of the fan.

  Unfortunately, after reassembling, the fan still makes noise. It's strange because if I pull the screen/lid slightly towards me, it stops the noise, and also if I apply pressure to the lower part on the base where the fan is located.

  Should I buy a new/submitted fan new to replace it, or is there a fix I can apply?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello:

  More than likely, the bearings of the fan are in ruins, and the only solution would be to replace the Fan/Heatsink combo.  The fan is not sold separately.

  Your model equipped with a discrete video adapter according to the product specification, so you should be the Fan/Heatsink Assembly which, according to the maintenance manual, includes hardware replacement, intended only to computer models with graphical subsystems with discrete memory.  Part # 606575-001 HP.

  It's quite expensive at $84.28, but I do not buy a used assembly (if you could find another one) and eventually encounter the same problem on the line.

  http://h20141.www2.HP.com/hpparts/Search_Results.aspx?mscssid=00CD1EC2A53945949E211F17A82B64FC&SearchIn=PartNumber&SearchPN=606575-001

  Sometimes this happens because users simply spray a jet of compressed air into the fan intake and exhaust air vent covers, which is perfectly OK, as long as you place a PIN or something that can get through the protection grid, between two of the fan blades to prevent it from turning.

  It is not a contest to see how fast or strong you can do this fan to lament when cleaning, because that's how the bearings get ruined.  They are delicate and only designed to handle a certain RPM range.

  One can only imagine how far beyond this tolerance range fan bearings can go, when they are subjected to a jet of compressed air of a jet!

• HP HP Pavilion dm4-3002ea Beats edition, the strange fan noise

  Hey guys first post so sorry if this isn't the correct procedure to indicate the problem or the right section!
  I have a HP Pavilion dm4-3002ea beats edition laptop, bought about a year and a half (so out of warranty).

  Now, the problem of the half that I have is a terribly strange fan noise coming from the laptop ONLY when it was hibernation, it is Purring away while I'm typing on it now, fan works fine, no overheating or issues like that, I can game, leave it on for hours etc its perfectly fine. The only problem is in hibernation it! I always put in hibernation in order to keep all my work of University ready to leave when I'm back on it, with all my tabs and such always opens on the sections, I need. It is very good that he hibernates without problem. Its when I go and turn it back on, it makes a vibration noise which I assume is the fan for about 15-20 seconds (?) as his recovery after hibernation and then is perfectly fine once more. He never did this noise after the sequence of the hibernation, or when I restart it. It's awfully strange and something I want to just make sure is not a real problem that I need this laptop for my university work. I can only assume, is the fan that makes noise, but it could be the HARD drive maybe? Not too sure on this one. He never blue screens etc, the HDD works fine so I'm really at a loss here! Any advice would be appreciated.
  Also I tried to clean the air fan, but I did not dare in disassemble correctly yet because it looks pretty complex of youtube, resembles access sick fan have to jump off the keyboard and the back which is a lot of effort. But if it goes bad opens and take a peek! I would like to know what it is, but I don't want to tinker with the bowels, as I used to do with my old laptop so its something stupid that is easily fixed! Also I always Hibernate it instead of closing it down, but being quite computer should not do lasting damage, I'm good? I mean he puts just the data disk HARD ready to be accessed the next time I turn it on? But hurt close more if this will help!
  Another quick problem which is pretty stupid because it is a HP Beats edition... half the speakers do not work on the right side of the laptop! Ironically, good! I'm not too fussed as its plugged in speakers on my desk, most of the time, but still it's pretty boring, as well. It creaked and went off one day and then he jumped several times on but now seemed to give up! The other side works well, reinstall all drivers etc to make sure that it isn't is not material, so I guess a loose cable? Pretty stupid, really, but still I guess another reason for me to break open and get to the bottom of this! As laptops out of warranty and I don't really want to take to a store of the laptop, in the hope of an old House of the noise of the fan if possible challenge! Speakers aren't that big a deal as always half works very well.

  If necessary, these specifications:

  HP Pavilion dm4-3002ea
  Windows 7 64 bit
  Intel i5 2450M 2.50 Ghz processor

  12 GB of Ram (I have added 8 gb on ago about 6 months so the amount)

  750 GB HARD drive.

  Congratulations to all!

  Hi Jack_DM4

  If I understand correctly you are updated, but we have still the sound issue only with the laptop not on devices so it looks like that the speakers on the right side of your laptop may be missing and vibration is still ongoing with the fan, but only when it starts first to the top that looks like a balancing problem.

  These two problems are hardware related but will not cause any damage to your computer. The speakers can be replaced if you choose by contacting HP here parts store and you place your order of new speakers and their replacement. If you are under warranty I would get fixed under warranty.

  The problem of vibration is just the fan rebalance itself when it starts first to the top once it gets to the speed of the passing air forces hovering in the centre of balance so he and when he settles down if imbalance. If you can deal with noise very well, otherwise you can order a new one from the link above HP parts store.

  If you are still under warranty I would strongly suggest that you get the notebook repaired under warranty as you may void the warranty if you open the notebook. If this is the case

  I think it would be best if you contacted technical support HP for repair options.

  Link US support for contact options for portable computers purchased in the United States.

  Link to American support outside of the contact options for laptops purchased outside the United States.

  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums and please feel free to re-post if you have any questions or concerns. Have a great day!

• Portege R700 - 11G - high and annoying fan noise

  Dear friends:

  I have a Portege R700 - 11G, I bought only two weeks ago.

  The computer works fine, except for the high and annoying fan noise.

  Even do nothing, only to start and sometimes in the bios Setup, the fan is always turn with a temperature of 40 ° or 50.

  I've updated the BIOS and I don't know what to do.

  Can someone help me please?
  Thank you very much.

  Hi mate

  Please check the settings in the Windows 7 power management!

  There you can optimize the CPU and cooling performance module this should help reduce heat dissipation and fan speed.

  In addition I recommend upgrading the Toshiba Fingerprint Software immediately to the version V1.0.2.32 or higher. In addition, turn off the power save option of fingerprint device in Device Manager.

  Device Manager->-> authentic Tec Inc AES1610-> the power management of biometric devices

  Here, you will have to remove the mark next to the option called allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
  Disable the power saving mode will reduce the life of the battery, so you can check whether or not it helps reduce noise.

• Start of satellite L10 fan speed and noise

  My L10 cooling fan start always maximum speed, when it turns on it always burst at maximum speed (and noise) and then slow down to a speed (and slient relative). This fan start noise is very annoying (as fan departure every half hour in office work and every 15 minutes in some simple games).
  I try muffler or bios settings performance they do not fix the noise and the starting speed.
  Maybe Toshiba could release some bios update or patch or something to fix this? (my bios version 2.0)
  Maybe this problem has the solution software thrid party?
  Or the fan speed max is just a hardware problem?

  Thank you.

  Hello Albert

  The same thing my Qosmio F20 and in my opinion, it is not any kind of technical problem. At the moment I'm typing this text and hear Internet radio at the same time. The cooling fan works regularly.

  In my opinion, when the operating system runs several different processes running in the background and they need the CPU activity that needs to be cooled correctly. In my opinion, you should check the power settings management settings and change the performance of the processor to lower the level.

  If the cooling fan runs every 15 minutes, in my opinion, it is not too often.

  Good bye

• hard drive noise and noise fan excessive cooling of grinding

  I started to hear a noise of creaking, apparently from the hard drive of my laptop (2 years, HP Pavillion) last month. The cooling fan runs faster than usual. Performance does not appear to be significantly affected, it takes another 3 to 4 minutes to start.
  What are the possible causes? Shows the squeaking noise and fan of serious problems? Can they be repaired cheaply?

  You can have a hard failure.

  Back up your data as soon as possible, in case of failure of the HD.

  Hard drives are nowadays a resonable price.

• ThinkPad X120e unusual fan noise

  I've had my X120e for awhile now and I'm happy with it. The normal fan noise didn't me don't bother, but lately I've heard some strange fan noises when I take the laptop at an angle.

  If I start to slowly turn on the right side, I hear a fan noise that sounds like the fan is catching on something inside. This noise stops after two seconds, but again as I continue to turn to the laptop. I already opened and tried blowing into the fan, remove the dust, but it still makes the noise sometimes. The laptop continues to operate normally when I hear this noise.

  This could be the cause? Is this something I need to worry?

  Thank you in advance.

  Oh, I fixed it. The fan power cables were a little too close to the fan blades and fan would sometimes catch on them. I just raised a little further, and it stopped making noise.
