Question laptop fan question

I have an Advent 7104 laptop and i was wondering how do you check the speed of your fan. And if it is running too slow, how do you speed it up.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Hi there and welcome to PC Help Forum

This will let you know the speed of your internal fan: Download SpeedFan - Access temperature sensor in your computer
As this is a laptop then it may be impossible to adjust the speed of the fan.

I believe that with that manufacturer, the ability to change the speed of the CPU fan is not available. Drop them an email for clarification if you like
