Here are some of the steps that could be taken to help resolve this issue:
- Check laptop settings, such as the fan speed settings, to verify that the cooling fan is still enabled.
- Clear the laptop vents of any dust or debris that may have built up over time.
- Check that the laptop is not overheating by using a temperature tracking tool or simply allowing it to cool down if it has been running for an extended period of time.
- Verify that the fan is not blocked by any objects, such as a nearby couch, bed frame, or blanket.
- If the issue continues to occur, it may be necessary to replace the fan.
