After many years of hard work my Samsung laptop shows this problem.
All of a sudden, fan goes maximum speed, apparently with no reason: it's not the classic noise when CPU/GPU are heating and fan raises speed. It sounds full speed like an helicopter lifting off: I had never heard it. And it doesn't stop, even if CPU temperature is low (< 60° C). It only ceases when I turn off PC.
It began to happen when I moved laptop from a table to another, or when I hit (for accident) the table where laptop was on: I thought it was due to vibrations.
Now it happens more frequently, even without any apparent reason.
I replaced thermal paste on CPU, GPU and other chips, but problem keeps showing.
I'm afraid that logic controlling fans went nuts but I don't know how to check it.
Any suggestion?
Thank you in advance,
Max
