    I have only had this notebook for less then a week (bought from pcconnection.com) and the fan is running constantly even if I'm not running any programs. At first it would only run every once in a while but now it's on all the time. I am terribly disappointed because I wanted a quiet notebook after suffering through desktops that were just as loud. I ran HD Tune and the temperature is currently at 86 degrees F. I need to run this notebook for long hours of the day. Is there any way to make the notebook fan dead quiet?
