    Hi

    I just got my HPdv6200 CTO 2 weeks ago. The fan kicks in almost every minute even if there is no programs running on my desktop. I have vista home premium. I never noticed this problem in my previous laptop with XP. Would this be a hardware fault or an issue with vista? I looked at my temperatures and my cores were at normal temp but my hard drive stayed at a constant 50 C. has anyone else experienced this problem?
