Hi @asjljdcvlnc,
 
Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Thanks for reaching out!


Sorry for the inconvenience caused and don’t worry let me help you.

To better understand the issue, could you please provide a few more details?

 

  • Is the fan running louder than usual, or does it seem inconsistent (sudden ramp-ups or drop-offs)?
  • Does the noise happen only during gaming or heavy workloads, or even when the system is idle?
  • Have you noticed if the fan speed changes right before the system restarts?

Troubleshooting Steps You Can Try

  • BIOS Reset: Since the BIOS update may have altered thermal management, try restoring BIOS settings to default.
  • Update Drivers: Make sure your AMD chipset and NVIDIA GPU drivers and BIOS are fully up to date, as they can affect thermal and power management.
  • Clean Air Vents: Even if the laptop hasn’t been moved much, dust buildup can restrict airflow.
  • Run HP Hardware Diagnostics: Test the cooling system to confirm the fan is functioning properly Under UEFI hardware diagnostics F2 options.
  • Observe on AC vs. Battery: Sometimes fan behavior differs depending on power source. See if the noise pattern changes when plugged in versus on battery.

I hope this helps.
