Yes, fans are good, unless they're too noisy.

well asking for descriptions might have been slightly more use full than stupid obvious answers... or no comment at all...

and its a laptop. the depth of the thing is about an inch. I have a felling my description would suffice for someone with actual knowledge on the topic. Lucky for me people like to troll these things and post as much random BS as they posibly can... o well i guess I was asking for it posting here

i think we just assumed, based on your first description "there is somthing spinningin the left upper corner ", that asking for another description, would have made "us" look obviously stupid for thinking that would help. oh and maybe in the future, if you want people to give you better answers, you could start with better descriptions from the beginning. we shouldn't have to ask obvious questions because you were to lazy to post them in the first place.

we are here to help believe it or not, its just a nice courtesy to put a little more effort into it yourself, when your asking us to help. for example using spellcheck would be a nice start to a better presentation.

its hard enough translating a problem from an inexperienced computer user, but even harder when we have to translate the english language too.

On the laptop you own the fan is on the top left corner with the dvd drive right before it so by saying it is in the upper left corner you pretty much pointed everyone to where the fan is located. Also if your description you said you know its not the HDD but could it be the (smiley face) so you didnt even give a good description to what you ruled out or even what you where asking,
