Cooling Fan N200 3000 Ticking and Buzzing

Hey
I was sitting at my labtop, and suddenly it began doing small ticks, 10min later it began to be worse. And now it is doing tick sounds when its cooling. (5 sec inbetween, its cooling) - also I can hear small peebpeeb sounds. Very low, but it is comming from the same place of the computer (left side).
If I open up the computer in the back to check if everything sits where it should will I break the warranty of the computer? - At the moment, I would really not like sending my labtop to service because I am doing the finish of a major project at the moment.
The computer is less tha ½ a year old - never been dropped or anything.
What to do?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

And I just checked the video of how to remove the fan/cooler. But it did not say anything with the warranty not being broke.
I just really want to be sure that I can atleast check how things look like inthere without breaking the warranty. Because it would be a shame to send the computer to service for 2-3 weeks and then it has been a minor problem, which I in fact could do my self.
And I am not going to replace any components, and it only said at the page I looked at, that the warranty is gone if you replace component.
But if you just open up your computer with a bit of care and a light hand? Would that break the warranty?

  • Cooling Fan Noise Through USB And Recording Software

    Anyone know how to keep the cooling fan from making a pop in recording software and through the USB port while hooked to an interface and pa system. The pop comes when the fan turns on or off.
    Thanks for any help 

    Fixed my own problem... if anyone else has this issue and sees this all I had to do was update to ML 10.8.3 and it took care of what ever bug was in the system.

  • Possible solution iMac cooling fan stuck on high and loud

    Had iMac go to sleep and just died, no lights or anything, power switch ignored me. Unplugging from wall, holding button in various ways on and after power up did not help in any way. Read articles on knowledge base and googled the web. Finally decided to pull out the round power plug on the rear of the iMac which to a regular user does not even look like it comes loose but it does. I checked the end with a volt meter and saw 120 volts ac and knew the cord was good. Plugged it into the Imac then momentarily touched the power switch and wham the iMac came on with a fury and the fan on super high speed. I'd never heard any of the iMacs in the house ever sound this loud, even on hot summer days. Pulled my hair out for a while but then repeated the steps removing the power cord from the back of the iMac, not the floor, and this time I pressed and held the power switch after plugging the AC back in and held it until I heard a beep, maybe 10+ sec. Of course I knew this worked because I could hear the iMac coming on quietly but making normal noises the moment I touched and held the power button. Now the system is working great again and I,m not looking at bringing it into a service center for no reason and injected more possible problems. I started another topic on the power on issue but I just wanted to document what I found and make it easier for someone else to get a search hit on a solution.
    Here's the other thread and hope it helps someone else.

  • G6 1c58ca laptop want to replace cooling fan and copper part

    i have probelm with cooling fan being really loud and making way too much vibration that actually numbs my hands while using wireless keyboard on same desk. so, i have taken apart the laptop to clean the cooling fan area with compressed air, and assembled it again, and ran the laptop.
    a littble improvement but still same problem.
    so i came to comclusion that the hardware part itself is the problem and i want to replace it.
    so my question is where can i find or buy the cooling fan and copper colored line that is connected to cooling fan?

    looked at amazon but they only had coolingfan part not the copper colored line.

  • RADEON 9800 cooling fan

    I have a RADEON 9800 Pro Mac Edition 256MB in my QuickSilver 2002 mounted in the AGP slot. The 9800 cooling fan is very loud (grinding sound) after a cold startup then gets quiet after it warms up. I have looked at third party cooling fans for this RADEON and I have found the Zalman v700cu and the Arctic Cooling ATI Silencer 1, Rev. 2 that seem to be compatible. From the images of these two coolers it looks like the two mounting screws that project out the back of the garphic card are very close to the lower memory slot in my QuickSilver. I don't use the PCI slot next to the AGP slot so I know the coolers will be OK there.
    My question is, has anyone actually tried one of these coolers in a QuickSilver 2002 and is there enough clearance between the mounting posts on the cooler and the memory card to prevent them from touching?

    ATI fans are notoriously bad (read that as cheap). You will know the fan is going bad when you hear a loud whine or grinding noise after a cold startup or during heavy use. The fan went bad on my 9800 Pro 256 after just 5 months. I had to send the card to ATI for repair - nearly 3 weeks to get the card back. The replacement ATI fan started making noise after another 90 days. I can't see doing this on a regular schedule for the three year warranty term so I replaced the stock fan with an Arctic Cooling ATI Silencer 1, Rev. 2. It's easy to install. So quiet that I can't hear it run and my computer case and power supply fans run slower and with less noise than ever before due to the Arctic fan venting warm air out of the computer.
    The Arctic Cooling ATI Silencer 1, Rev. 2 installed perfectly with no modifications and minimal effort. It has a 6 year warranty. I consider this modification the best thing you can do to protect the $250 (or whatever you pay) investment you make with the RADEON card. It's better than waiting for the stock fan to fail and cause your 9800 to melt down. Technically installing the Arctic fan voids the ATI warranty but I believe I could reinstall the old stock fan if the card needs other warranty repairs without anyone noticing the switch was ever made.
    So your answers are yes and yes although I never had the monitor problem you describe. The ATI card is a good choice - keep it then download and install the latest drivers from the ATI/AMD web site and do yourself a favor and buy an Arctic Cooling ATI Silencer model for your card. Install it when you start to hear the stock fan going bad. You will be glad you did.
    PS - many thanks to FangSuede for his excellent advice given to me.

  • HP Notebook 2000 cooling fan issue

    Hey, everyone. I've had my HP Notebook 2000 for a few years and I've discovered my first major issue just a few days ago when the cooling fan stopped working. I don't really mind it too much because I have a USB-powered cooling fan that my laptop rests on, and it does a pretty good job. My entire laptop remains at about the same average tempurature.
    The biggest issue I'm having is every few hours, the laptop will automatically shut off because of it.
    As well, when I boot it up (turn it on), it gives me a reminder that the cooling fan isn't working and I will have to press "enter" or the laptop shuts off in 15 seconds.
    How can I make it so the laptop ignores the broken cooling fan? I don't want to spend the money to repair it because I can rely on the USB-powered cooling device.
    Thank you!

    No you can't. Reason it probably shuts down is because cpu temps peak over safety threshhold at times thus it shuts down to prevent damage.
    Cooling systems on hp's are not the best when working so thermal stress on cpu,gpu & mainboard will be bad & failure failure will occur quite quickly.
    Fan assembly is very cheap & can be done DIY if you have some skill in dismantling these sort of things & following hp service manual & other online guides.
    I expect a new fan & new thermal paste & shimming along with cleaning would do wonders for running temps & long term health of the notebook.

  • On my Satellite P100-347 cooling fan runs all the time

    Hi,
    I think I might have a problem with fan on my Satellite P100-347. It seems to be continually working at all times and is a lot louder than when I purchased the computer. Initially it used to just switch off and on when required, I think this might now be wrong.
    Please help.

    Hi Beata
    I agree with Sanremo suggestions; its not known to me how old your notebook is but from time to time its necessary to clean the cooling fans. The dust and debris inside the notebook could prevent the cooling modules from properly working!
    The properly fresh air circulation is also very important. Be sure that there is enough free space around the notebook. Do not use the notebook on the knees or in the bed. In such case the notebook cannot be cooled in the right way and the high temperature can damage some parts like GPU on the board.
    But if you think there is an serious hardware problem you should contact the authorized service provider in your country.
    Good luck and greetings to Poland ;)

  • Dv5-2129wm cooling fan issue

    I am trying to find out what cooling fan I need for my Windows 7 Home Prem OA dv5-2129wm laptop.
    I tried HP support and it was a waste of time, so I thought I would go where people know what they are doing... to the people who use them.
    When I start my laptop it gives the error "the cooling fan is not working and your system must shut down" then it shuts down.  I don't use it often and am pretty disappointed with my HP at this point so hopefully someone can help me here. Unfortunately I am not very computer literate so go easy on me please.

    Hi,
    Cooling fan is a hardware item/part of a computer which can run Windows 7 or other Windows. If you wish to replace it by yourself, you need part. The following link shows ALL parts for your computer. You can buy from the Part Store or use part # and search online stores including eBay:
        http://partsurfer.hp.com/Search.aspx?SearchText=XH007UA
    Now, how do you replace part(s). The second manual of the following link shows you how:
        http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/manualCategory?cc=us&lc=en&product=4308945
    For the fan, you can start from page #80.
    Regards & Good luck.

  • A1212 Macbook Pro Cooling Fan Speed / SMC / Service Battery

    Background:
    I've owned my A1212 Macbook Pro Core 2 Duo since launch (Thanksgiving 2006 I believe). For some time now the temperature has been quite warm - more recently my right cooling fan has intermittently sounded like a jet engine and failed to speed beyond 1,500-2,000 rpm intermittently.
    1. I ordered the correct cooling fan for A1212 right and replaced.
    2. When I rebooted Macbook Pro here is what I see for temps in hardware monitor
    AMBIENT TEMP 31C/88F
    CPU A 44C 111F
    CPU CORE 1:36C/97F
    CPU CORE 2:39C/100F
    "SMART DISK" — [DOES THIS MEAN THERE IS A SENSOR THAT IS NOT REGISTERING]
    The hottest temp recorded is 109F/ CPU A temperature diode
    The new cooling fan is majorly cooling the mac much better than prior fan.
    3. I can't find ANY way to stop the mac from running both cooling fans at 6,000rpm
    a) reset SMC (tried holding down power button 20 seconds after disconnecting battery
    b) reboot
    c) remove smcfancontrol
    d) use smcfancontrol
    e) monitor with temp monitor, hardware monitor, istat pro
    f) no runaway processes - not even hot
    4) I notice ( this was also showing up before install of new fan) in my battery icon it indicates "Service Battery" - while I do have a 4 yr old computer there was a recall on batteries so this battery is maybe 3 yrs old and I usually use computer plugged in.
    I do not have my snow leopard boot dvd readily available to run hardware test on sensors, however techtool pro does not report any issues. I have not found any terminal commands to force the fan speed down nor any indication I have any apps that are accelerating it.
    It appears that my fan speeds are accelerating shortly after power up - before OS X is even loaded completely - and never slow to normal speed except when mac is asleep.
    IS IT POSSIBLE TO CONNECT THE FAN INVERTED (THE TWO PINS) MESSING UP ABILITY TO CONTROL FAN SPEED?
    IS IT POSSIBLE THAT I INADVERTENTLY BROKE SOME SENSOR "SMART"?
    I am thinking more and more that this is hardware related like a sensor. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, while I don't have a Jet engine I have a very noisy mac

    Hi N,
    SMART reports on a number of checks on the HD. I don't believe that's any part of the current issue.
    I agree with you that my first inclination is toward a sensor issue; by default, if the sensor's are not reporting properly, the fans run full speed/6000RMP.
