    Hey guys,

    I've recently noticed my laptop getting louder and the idle temperature is now around 60C, up from 50C half a year ago. I'm pretty sure its because of dust build up.

    Does anyone have simple instructions for a noob to clean the dust out?

    I've got a Asus m50vn.

    Cheers.
