Hey there! @sheamansenior, 

Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!

I understand the fan on your laptop is noisy.

Don't worry I'd love to help you out.

Did you make any software or hardware changes to your PC?

Please update BIOS on your PC and check if it helps.

Link to update BIOS.

Also, if the issue persists run system diagnostics on your PC and let me know if the results.

Refer this article to know how to run system diagnostics on your PC.

Let me know how it goes!

Have a beautiful day ahead! 🙂

@sheamansenior, It's great to hear from you again, I was much awaiting for your response.

I appreciate your efforts for trying out the steps.

As you mentioned even after updating BIOS the issue still persists.

Please try the steps recommended below.

Consistent CPU load can cause heat buildup in the computer, forcing the fan to run continuously to keep the computer at operating temperatures. This heat buildup might be caused by corrupt software or malware. A corrupt process can consume CPU time anywhere between 1% and 100% of the CPU. Even a low but constant 3% to 4% load can cause the fan to run at a raised level.
Use the following steps to identify corrupt processes that might be consuming CPU time.
The screens vary slightly depending on your version of Windows. You will still see a Processes tab and CPU column.
Close all open Programs and save your work.
Press Ctrl, Alt, Delete, and then click Start Task Manager or Task Manager, depending on your version of Windows, to open Windows Task Manager.

Select the Processes tab, and then to sort the processes by CPU load, click the CPU column header.

Look through the list for suspect processes.
To find more information about a process, search the Internet using the process name that displays in the Windows Task Manager. Look for information that mentions the issue through other reports and suggests steps for resolving the issue.

Refer this article to further troubleshoot Fan is Noisy and Spins Constantly.

If the issue persists after trying out the steps it could to be a hardware issue, please contact HP support for service options.

Hope this helps!

Have a great day ahead! 🙂

Hi, thanks for prompt response, I have run Task Manager measuring CPU%, whilst it constantly fluctuating, is is running between 2%-3% with Task Manager itself & Microsoft Edge as the highest individual percentage?

Many thanks

@sheamansenior, Thanks for your quick response and time.

Kudos to you for trying out the steps.

I would suggest try performing a system restore on your PC and check if it helps.

If the issue still persists after performing the system restore try performing a complete system recovery on your PC and let me know if this helps.

Hi, Microsoft did a major update, the noisy fan got worse, I did a restore to pre update time and since then it has behaved.  Hear it occassionally but not to anywhere near the same as previously indicated.

@sheamansenior, It's been great to hear from you again.

I appreciate your efforts for trying out the steps.

I'm glad to know after restoring windows the fan noise has been reduced.

As you mentioned after updating the windows the issue started.

Please try the steps recommended below.

Tap on the Windows-key on your keyboard and type remove a program.
Select the result add or remove programs from the list of search results.
This opens a Windows Control Panel window which lists all installed programs on the system.
Select view installed updates on the left side of the window.
This displays all updates installed on the system.
You can use the search at the top now to find the update you are looking for, or browse the listing manually if you prefer it that way. If you do the second, click on the installed on the header to sort the updates chronologically which often helps find the problematic update faster.
Once you have located the update right-click it and select uninstall from the menu.
This removes it from the system.
Note that you may need to restart the PC before the process ends.

If the issue still persists after trying out the steps, please perform a complete system recovery on your PC and check if it helps.

Hope this helps!

Have a wonderful day ahead! 🙂
