Weird Fan Sound with my X61s

#1 Post by mcmanaman » Sun Nov 02, 2008 8:26 am

My X61s fan is producing weird sounds when it starts running after this it just runs normal. Is this something that I have to worry about?

Is there any solution for this? Thanks in Advance.

The sound sounds like cracking and its coming from the right side of the computer (i.e. cooling vent). The sound occurs only on the start after that the fan just keep on running smoothly
