    Hi,

    My brand new Vaio E series (14") is making a constant and very annoying fan noise. The fan is running all the time - as soon as i press the power button it starts and it never stops again. I'm not running any heavy programs or games, and the machine is not hot or anything. Still it just keeps running.

    I've chosen "Priority to silence" in the Cooling Fan Control in Vaio Control Center, but it doesn't seem to do anything.

    I've read about an option called something like "Keep fan on always" in the BIOS settings of some devices, but my BIOS version does not seem to have this option.

    I would appreciate any help since this i really driving my crazy
