Fan grinding noise

[Jvarbino]

Does anyone have a suggestion for stopping the excessive grinding noise coming from the fan?  It has gotten so bad that I can't even use the laptop anymore.  It's not even a year old, and there is no dust inside.

Thanks!

@, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Request you the following list describes some causes of excessive heat OR fan making noises 

• Dust inside the laptop.  
• A new component, such as a hard drive, is added. The extra component causes the power supply to work harder and generate more heat. Extra heat also radiates off the new component and adds to the temperature inside the case.  
• Over time, some cooling fans might slow down and wear out, as the laptop is getting hot, depending on the usage of the laptop.  
• High ambient room temperature.  

Step 1: Removing dust and lint by cleaning vents  

Step 2: Ensuring proper space for ventilation  

Step 3: Updating the BIOS  ( Make sure Power adaptor connected to notebook )

Step 4: Using HP CoolSense technology  

Step  5: Update the Windows 

Step  6:Update Drivers from HP Support Assistance
