    Hello,

    My Satelitte A10 laptop is overheating really quickly and gives me a warning
    message. I noticed that the fan does not run for a long period of time.
    The fan runs for 2-3 seconds, stops, again for 2-3 seconds, stops, .......

    The heatsink is not clogged with dust.

    Is it a problem with the fan or with the motherboard?


    Thanks
