Hi ppl...

I have got an old Vaio A115z laptop. Everything seems to work fine, other than its noisy ':smileysad:' . Could someone suggest on how to reduce fan noise?

Thanks...':smileyhappy:'

Hi azazskhan,

what is the normal running temperature of your vaio..?

If your unsure, mobilemeter is a handy application to use..

If your vaio is getting hot you may need to first try clearing the cooling vents of dust with compressed air (you should be able to get this from your local PC shop), holding the can upright give the vents a short blast from a distance of approx. 10cm if you hold the can to close you could damage the fan..

If you do not notice any improvement then your vaio may need to be disassembled in order to deep clean the fan and cooling vents.
