HP Laptop 17-bs0xx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Lately, I've been hearing what I think is a rattling noise coming from inside my PC sort of on the left. The laptop is only 2 months old, so I may have bumped it on something. When I looked up my problem some people said it was an issue with the fan. This makes sense, but since I have a laptop it's obviously not as simple (for me at least) as just opening the case and fixing it. Is this issue typically caused by a fan?

@Ryan24

Thank you for joining HP Forums. 

I'll be glad to help you 🙂 

 

As I understand there's a rattling noise coming from inside the laptop,

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details: 

Did you attempt to update the BIOS?

Have you cleaned the notebook to ensure there's no dust?

 

While you respond to that, I have a few recommendations: 

  • Updating your Notebook computer BIOS 

  • Keeping notebook air vents clear and clean 

  • Increasing the efficiency of the notebook to reduce heat 

  • Using Windows Task Manager to identify corrupt processes 

  • Selecting power saves settings to shut off your computer when it is not in use 

For more details: Click here 

 

Do get back to me as I have a few more tricks up my sleeve, 

That said, If I have helped you resolve the issue, 

feel free to give me a virtual high-five by clicking the 'Thumbs Up' icon 

followed by clicking on 'Accepted as Solution' 

And Have a great day Ahead!
