Laptop fan running loud constantly – what can I do?

Possible causes: Dust in the fan, high CPU usage, outdated drivers, or a faulty fan. **Steps:** 1) Carefully clean the fan with compressed air (switch the laptop off and remove the battery first!). 2) Check CPU usage in Task Manager (**Ctrl + Shift + Esc**) and close unnecessary programs. 3) Update drivers via Device Manager. 4) Make sure the laptop is on a flat, well-ventilated surface. 5) If the fan continues to run loudly, it may be faulty – have the laptop checked by a professional.
