[QUOTE="rfomlover, post: 1667481, member: 140583"] Hey guys, does anybodies older Macbooks (Mid-2012) make any kind of strange smell? When the computer has a load on it like games or something like that I smell like an old crayon smell or something. The smell is always present if you sniff near the vent but when the fan is on full blast the smell makes it out further. The interesting thing is, this isnt the only Macbook I have that does this smell. It started maybe 6 months to a year ago, but only just now thought to post it. Other than the computer running slow, even after replacing a failing hard drive, it runs with no problems. I have an old Blackbook 2.16 Core Duo or something like that and it makes the same smell. Some of my other macbooks dont do it. Just strange and thought I would post about it lol. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
