My guess is that it is blocked by dust (or could there be any other reason?). Changing the CPU Fan Level in the power saving panels changes nothing about it.</P><P></P><P>We have 6 Vaio TZ here, and this one is the only one acting up. The other 5 are completely silent.</P><P></P><P>If it is about cleaning the fan, how can I go about it? If it could be anything else, how can I diagnose the problem?</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 08 Oct 2010 16:22:53 GMT https://community.sony.pl/t5/pcs-accessories/how-do-i-clean-noisy-blocked-tz-fan/m-p/172409#M47032 pixelrunner 2010-10-08T16:22:53Z How do I clean noisy / blocked TZ fan? https://community.sony.pl/t5/pcs-accessories/how-do-i-clean-noisy-blocked-tz-fan/m-p/172410#M47033 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P><SPAN style="font-size: 12pt;">You are right to start by cleaning the fan.</SPAN></P><P></P><P><SPAN style="font-size: 12pt;">If you PM an email address to me, I will send you the generic TZ-Series manual as a PDF which should help with disassembly..</SPAN></P><P></P><P><SPAN style="font-size: 12pt;"><img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.sony.pl/html/@0248C33DDCF34AA61B8F8F33F5AFA5BE/images/smilies/013.png" alt=":wink:" title=":wink:" /><BR /></SPAN></P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 08 Oct 2010 17:42:33 GMT https://community.sony.pl/t5/pcs-accessories/how-do-i-clean-noisy-blocked-tz-fan/m-p/172410#M47033 Blencogo 2010-10-08T17:42:33Z
