Do you think formatting will help?

There is not much point formatting as the fan will be making the same noise when it is running at that speed.

It sounds like the laptop is not being cooled properly if the fans are constantly on like that. It is possible that your fan is faulty, also the thermal paste may be losing its efficiency.

I still have the warranty, should I take it to the store where I bought it from?

i got a chill mat for my laptop, and it helps remove over heating probs, i had that over heatin problem (my brother said its the battery that causes it to not be cooled rite)

[Usman55]

I formatted my laptop and it didn't gave any buzzing sound since then. My normal fan speed is 55%. I'll see if anything goes wrong today and then I'll take it to the store tomorrow. And also, I think I should get some cooling solution. I have just two bottle caps underneath the rubber blobs which are at the corners of the laptop. Any better, efficient solution available?

If the problem started after installing Autodesk 3DS Max and seems to be solved by formatting your laptop (removing Autodesk 3DS Max) then I guess it could have been the software but I find that a bit odd :? unless it caused some kind of conflict with power management or something. Very strange lol.

You can get laptop cooling pads/plates like Jg99 mentioned which help keep it nice and cool and pretty cheap these days: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-F5L001er ... B000W0D15O

Thanks for your replies, guys. Cody, yeah that is a bit odd cuz of course a software can't do anything before windows starts. But maybe it caused some trouble which affected the whole thing overall.

And for the cooling pad, is the pad in your link effective? Are there any better ones out there? I have a store nearby and it has a cheap one which is said to be from Microsoft. Only 5%.

I just find it doing a quick google search to show you what you could get to cool the laptop. You can get loads of different types and some have 2-3 fans on them which is always better..goto your local shop to check them out and find one that you like

find a strong one and you can use it in the summer when its really hot as a seat and keep your bum cool :lol:

[Usman55]

lol, lol and lol. lol again. Yeah, still lolling. Can't stop lolling.
(Just kidding, but it actually was funny!)

And btw, the fan's speed increased again upto 65% (Not 75% as before) and made some noise. And the odd thing is I never experienced this before since I bought the laptop (8 months).

And is vibrating of the laptop a normal thing?

[mandai]

If the fan is faulty then it can cause vibrations, especially if the bearings are starting to fail.

[Usman55]

Actually, the vibration is from the time I bought the laptop.

And I'll try running some heavy processes to see if the problem is still there. I don't think the fan is faulty cuz I have kept my laptop with complete care (I keep all my things with great care) and it has been only 10 months since I bought it and the companies are not so dumb that they will use low quality materials in their products.
