hi,
last week I have bought my new laptop. started up and installed a browser and watched some youtube. but after a couple minutes the fan started spinning hard. i thought it was of blocking a vent but tried it on a flat table and still started spinning hard.
i installed the program Speedfan and saw that temp1(acpi) was on 50 `c when the fan started.(this is most of the time).
can someone help me what the problem might be?
Thanks.

Youtube means video. When playing videos (online or offline) CPU and GPU will work harder and machine will be warmer/hotter therefore it needs fan(s) to cool internal down to protect itself from damages. That is normal, fan(s) will low down when machine feels safer.
Regards.
