I’m using HP 14s since the past 4 years. The noise has started to make noise, I opened the laptop and cleaned the dust, wondering if it was causing the noise. But it still makes the noise. Can you help me figure out if everything is okay with my fan (or is it broken/or wore out because it aged)? Should I replace it?
Try repasting your CPU before you give up on the laptop. 4 years of use could have the paste fairly dry and affecting the cooling which would explain fans ramping up.
