    Guys,

    I have searched the forums and I know I am not the only one who has experienced the T61 fan buzz. This is not the much documented CPU whine but a whole different thing altogether.

    I've seen mention made of people reporting there is a wire that has been known to get in the way of the fan and could be the cause of the problem. This is referenced in the link below ...

    ... but it does not reference the exact link that discusses this issue.

    Anyone with some insight?

    Thanks.
