My Pavillion laptop has in the last 5 days started making a whirring noise when switched on -

Purchased a new HP Pavilion laptop in July 2020 and have noticed  in the last few days that when I start up the laptop , there is a continuous whirring sound.

Not sure how to remedy this or appreciate any fault finding pointers - I am not particular tecky so will need some additional guidance - do not think it is because the fan is overheating as only 6 months old.

Thanks

I reviewed your post and I understand that there is noise from the computer.

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

What is the product number of your computer?

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

Hi The Fossette

Thank you for your reply.

The product number of my laptop is 6TC73EA.

I have downloaded and updated BIOS with no effect (noise got louder whilst rebooting??) and the whirring noise is still present.

Regarding the graphics driver, I can not see the processor name of my laptop listed.

My processer graphics name is: AMD Ryzen 5 3500U with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx

Hope this helps.

Much appreciated

If the laptop is under warranty, send it in for repair. If not, try to extend the warranty first.
