Dell Inspiron n5110 Fan Problem

Thread Starter 

Hi there, I am having a Dell Inspiron n5110 Laptop with 2nd gen i3, 3gb ram, 320gb hd, and intel 3000 HD graphics.

I purchased this system last year in October.

 

Recently Since 5 days My FAN is running continuosly all the time... whenever i starts my system it goes on...keep running till i shutdown my system...

Whether i am on Battery or Ac...the condition is same.

 

I am having all drivers up to date.

Still i don't know why i am facing this issue.

 

Previously.. the fan use to start whenever it was required by the system...means when i use to play games, or watch movie then the fan use to run. But now it is running always.

 

I searched over the internet and found a way to reset the Thermal Management System on this Forum itself. But its not working with me.. that FN+Z key way.

 

I called DELL Customer Care they said it is Perfectly Normal if the Fan is Running All the time...

Well I am not a heavy user,,,neither i perform a heavy multitasking session.

the fan is still ON if the System is idle...or doing nothing.

 

I don't know what to interpret..Should i go with it acceptinfg it as Normal or something else..

Please Guide or Advise.

Take it apart and see if the fan area needs some cleaning

Hello KumarNitish,
    
My name is Pradeep and I work for the Social Media and Community Team at Dell. I would like to inform you that whenever you start the computer the fan will automatically start working and this is indeed normal.However I would recommend you to flash the BIOS on your laptop.Please follow the steps to do the same:

1.Go to www.support.dell.com.
2.Click on Home User Support & click on Drivers & Downloads.
3.Enter the service tag number of your laptop (found at the bottom of your laptop on the label).
4.Select the Operating system that you are using & click on the option BIOS.
5.Download the file under the tab BIOS.

Please make sure the charging adaptor should be connected when you execute these steps


Thanks,
Dell-Pradeep S

I had the same problem, cooler work all the time and laptop overheating, do this:

press CTRL+ALT+DEL select START TASK MANAGER select on the upper menu PROCESSES and find what is using so much processor or memory and close it....usually a computer uses less then 10% CPU and 30% memory

there are some programs that uses 50% cpu or you cand get a trojan with or without antivirus
