Hi @divyag,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.
I understand that when you are trying to use the PC with a charge, you can hear the fan making noise on the HP Laptop PC 15-dw3000 (1A3X9AV)
1. Clean Your Laptop’s Vents and Fan
Regular cleaning can significantly reduce fan noise:
- Power off your laptop and unplug it
- Use compressed air to blow dust out of the fan vents and other vents
- If comfortable, open the laptop case to clean the fan directly (check your warranty first)
2. Manage Running Programs
Reduce the load on your CPU to minimize fan noise:
- Open Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc)
- Identify resource-heavy programs
- Close unnecessary applications
3. Update Drivers and Software
Keeping your system up-to-date can improve efficiency:
- Check for operating system updates
- Update device drivers, especially for your GPU
- Install the latest BIOS version for your laptop model
4. Adjust Power Settings
Optimise your power plan to reduce heat generation:
- Open your laptop’s power options
- Select a balanced or power-saver plan
- Adjust advanced settings to limit the maximum processor state
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
