    Hi there!

    First of all thanks for all info on the 4501wlmi. I have had it for 2 weeks now and overall I am very pleased!!
    But for the last couple of days the fan had begun to turn on more and more often for no obvious cause. This some times happens even if I am not even working on the computer.
    Is there a way to control the fan or figure out why it constantly turns on?
    Thanks!

    Chris

    I've noticed that too, but I can manage. It seems like the fan will go on more when it is plugged in vs. running off the battery.
