[QUOTE="fthanshar, post: 106074"] Hi, On Monday I recieved my new PB "17. I love it but....today I set the Processor performance to highest and a strange buzzing sound can be heard from the vent area, roughly in the upper right (actually it is hard to pinpoint). It is very different from the "whoosing" sound of my left fan which is usually running. Is this the second fan? and if so does it sound different or is mine broken :( It is not very loud but one can definatly hear it. I am scared it has something to do with the processor so i am leaving the Processor performance setting on automatic for now. The sound is made with the AC adapter plugged in and without it when Processor performance is set to highest. Hopefully someone knows what this could be.. Thanks alot, Frank [/QUOTE]
