Laptop makes loud buzzing sound and seems to be related to a fan on the left side.  It appears to be the fan and acts like it has a bad bearing and starts vibrating creating the loud buzz.  The noise is incredibly loud when it starts and seems to vary a bit if the left side of the laptop housing near the fan vent is even slightly pinched with my fingers.  Also blowing a little canned air into the fan can sometimes quiet it down... likely resets the vibration of the fan by the sounds of it. This laptop is still under warranty, and my daughter needs it to do her school work, so I would like to get it fixed.

I reviewed your post and I understand that the fan is making a loud buzzing noise.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

I recommend you update the BIOS from the below link and check whether the issue is resolved.
