Exhaust vibration

[anwarh]

Request your advice as i have recently bought a Sony Vaio VGN-CS120J laptop. I have noticed that there is a king of extra vibration and soung near the exhaust. It seems like the exhaust fan is running the double speed. don't know exaclty whats wrong. and there is bit of vibration and sound as well... i believe someone can help me out

The fan may be out of balance or its bearings dirty. I would take it apart and give the fan some compressed air shots. Is the notebook used?

Maybe I don't know what you mean by vibration.

Does it only occur when the system fan is active?

Turn your speakers on mute, first.

A vibration is a mechanical thing, and won't have much to do with software. We need to find out what your hardware is doing when the vibration occurs. The only two moving parts in your machine to vibrate are the HDD and fans. One of them (or the optical drive, if a disk is in) has to be making the noise.

If the notebook is used, you may want to consider cleaning out the fans and heatsinks with compressed air.

If that doesn't work, you can replace the TIM, but other than that (with a notebook) you really can't lower heat that much.
