My laptop fan occasionally goes full speed, when I'm doing "heavy" things or not. It goes randomly full speed and runs unconstantly, it goes high and low randomly doing some weird "buzz" noises when switching from high to low and viceversa. It has just been a year since a I have it and I don't think it has always done this. What could it be?
Thanks in advance

You could try updating BIOS to this latest version available in your HP support page: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/swdetails/HP-ENVY-15-Notebook-PC-series/7527530/mode...
Read this before updating: http://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c00042629
Any overheating or warm air through vents?

Thank you answering.
The BIOS is up to date. Updated through HP Support Assistant.
The air when this happens is occasionally warm, but not necessarily. I checked with CoreTemp if there were any trouble with overheating but nothing irregular.

Download and install HP PC Hardware Diagnostics from here: http://www8.hp.com/uk/en/campaigns/hpsupportassistant/pc-diags.html?jumpid=va_r602_uk/en/any/pps/pl_...
Restart system. Tap F2 key as soon as you power on laptop. Now see if System Testing menu comes up along with others.
