    Hey guys,

    New to the forum. Anyway, I got a quick question for the people here who are, hopefully, a lot smarter than me. I've had this computer for about two months and it's quite simply the best computer (including both PC and laptop) I have ever owned. On to the question: The fan comes on every few seconds for short bursts. Is this normal or should I be concerned? My computer temp is 55.

    Any help would be greatly appreciatee. In case it matters, I am using Windows Vista Home Premium addition with 2 GB of RAM.
