    Hi all.

    I have recently got my new NR21. Worked perfectly for the first day but now the fan wont stop spinning.
    Starts at boot-up and wont calm down and the harddrive is working all the time too. Surely this isn´t as is should be`?

    Assuming you run on AC-adapter, yes it runs continuously.

    The fan works to the benefit of your machine as excessive heat shortens notebook life.

    Do not be too concerned about your fan issue.
