I got a laptop. And then fan is going constantly at very high RPMs. I don't even open anything, it just does it from the time I start up till I power down. At first, I thought I was overheating, but there was nothing for me to over heat on! Any ideas?

| Get a duster and blow out the FAN area
I assume you have your laptop sitting flat on your desk, either get a laptop stand(with or with out additional fans, powered by USB) or elevate it(the back) otherwise if you want to save the 20 bucks :-)
LEt me know if this helps
Cheers

I got 2 rubber cup things, furniture sliders, propping up the back for now, until I can buy a cooling pad from RadioShack | |

| WOW frank I didn't know this could be a solution for it. If it was me I would have taken a screwdriver and opened the laptop to see what is messing it up.  and then I would have ruined the laptop itself. | |

| Hey Jason
I am glad it worked :-)
Thx for the kind words Patrick...
Nick, sometimes it is just the smallest work you have to put in to make it happen, (i am imagine right now you, trying to put the laptop pieces back together LOL)
Cheers
