ever since i got back my laptop from repairs, i noticed how the cooling fan seemed to be not working. i was under the weather today, so i decided to take the day off. lying in bed, bored to heck, i decided to run the hardware diagnostics check on my system. but first it had to go through the memory check and stuff. just as it reached the hardware part of the check, it shut down. "thats strange," i thoguht. i turned it on normally. it booted up, and after about a minute on the desktop, it froze and stayed that way.
well, i called Dell tech support and after inserting the utilities and drivers CD, we found out that for sure my cooling fan wasnt working and my motherboard was in danger of getting overheated. turns out last month when they were replacing the chassis for my laptop they damaged the fan and didnt realize it. so im sending it in- AGAIN! and i will be without laptop for the nest 10 days.... this will truly make a good FML....
