I can't think of or see any new programs that might cause this.<BR /><BR />Any ideas? Any way to regulate it or make it calm down a bit?<BR /><BR />Thanks!<BR /><BR />EDIT: I notice there is a 'PowerPanel' program available for the Vaio, but I didn't get it as standard. Where can I download this? (Sadly there is no Power Management options in my Vaio's BIOS)<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 15 Oct 2005 18:41:45 GMT https://community.sony.se/t5/pcs-accessories/fan-speed-noise-has-increased-recently-help/m-p/42237#M29604 earthling0001 2005-10-15T18:41:45Z Re: Fan Speed & Noise has increased recently - help! https://community.sony.se/t5/pcs-accessories/fan-speed-noise-has-increased-recently-help/m-p/42238#M29605 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>It could be that your PC is in need of a clean, have a look <A href="http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10163_7-6240575-5.html" target="_blank">here</A> for a guide to the procedure.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 15 Oct 2005 19:42:38 GMT https://community.sony.se/t5/pcs-accessories/fan-speed-noise-has-increased-recently-help/m-p/42238#M29605 rich912 2005-10-15T19:42:38Z Re: Fan Speed & Noise has increased recently - help! https://community.sony.se/t5/pcs-accessories/fan-speed-noise-has-increased-recently-help/m-p/42239#M29606 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Yeah i done it myself that link is very useful.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 16 Oct 2005 12:26:32 GMT https://community.sony.se/t5/pcs-accessories/fan-speed-noise-has-increased-recently-help/m-p/42239#M29606 VAIOFAN 2005-10-16T12:26:32Z
