Well here is the prob.

For a start I'll give you the specs

Pentium 4 3.2ghz, 1gb Ram, GeForce FX 5200, XP

Which is all well and good, but my case is tiny. I bought the bigger Aspire RC500 version a couple of years ago, its a lot of tech cramed into a little sexy chrome box, BIG MISTAKE. My fan will not shut the @$%* up. It is on from the moment I turn it on to the moment I turn it of, its a bummer if I want to listen to music or watch a movie, with this hair dryer going in the background. But the computer isn't hot at all, its just blowing fo the sake of it. And it dosn't do it directly on start up, it waits till i'm logged in for a while, and then starts. So I was wandering if anyone knows how to fix this problem?! Thanks for any info you can give

Hi Tom!
Welcome to PC Helpforum!

Are we talking about a CPU fan?
Is it clean of any dust?
