    It doesn't matter what I'm doing, the fan on the left side is always running as if the laptop were under load, when it in fact is completely idle. Even in the BIOS the fan spins away as if I were playing a game. I only noticed this a few days ago. The unit is about a month old.

    There was only one change I made the day I noticed the this, and that was installing the latest video card drivers. Thinking the drivers were at fault, I removed and installed the older drivers, but the fan continues to roar away.
