The ventilator is too lout on PCG-GRT996VP! How to make it quieter?

[ossit]

Since 2.5 years I got a a Sony Vaio PCG-GRT99VP notebook. The operating system is Windows Vista.
Since 2 months, the ventilator is just too loud. If the notebook is turned on, the ventilator starts immediately under high pressure and high speed.
A BIOS update is not available for the notebook. Can anyone tell me how I can get the ventilator quieter (possibly by cleaning the ventilator?)

Greets,

Hi Morri

what is the normal running temperature of your vaio..?

If your unsure, PC Wizard is a handy application to use..

If your vaio is getting hot you may need to first try clearing the cooling vents of dust with compressed air (you should be able to get this from your local PC shop), holding the can upright give the vents a short blast from a distance of approx. 10cm if you hold the can to close you could damage the fan..

If you do not notice any improvement then your vaio may need to be disassembled in order to deep clean the fan and cooling vents.
