i'm trying to figure out what's going with my laptop. the fan was noisy, and it used to click periodically (like it was overheating?)
so i thought to clean it. it didn't look dirty, but i cleaned it anyway, and put new thermal stuff between cpu and heatsink, put it back together....the fan still runs noisy after a bit (5mins or so?), and so hot it seems.
i'm thinking to get a new fan next, but does someone know what the clicking noise is, is it indeed overheating?
