Re: battery problem

Yea, sometimes the fan does seem louder than usual.This is a laptop we're
talking about though. Do you think I should crack it open and blow it out or
just replace the brick. I was further thinking that because the brick seems
to fluctuate it's power supply less frequently (the power is more
consistent) that if I were to replace the battery it would fix the problem
because the battery has never been replaced and it is about 5 years old.
