Hi,
I left my laptop running overnight. Today morning this annoying high pitch noise is coming from fan area. Which was not there when I left it yesterday night. Has any other laptop users faced this same issue.
Thanks

Maybe the temperature of your laptop was too high. Do you use any tools to manage cpu frequency?

I have cpufreq tools installed and cpufreqd running. Is there anything else I need to have?

What governor do you use? The default is does not reduce cpu frequency and therefore the CPU runs on full frequency, which causes the fan to run constantly. Does your fan kick in during normal operation and is that sound any different?
What laptop are you using? Some ThinkPad models, for example, are known for their high pitch noise.

I use hp compaq 6910p. I think sound is high also during normal operation.
The governor I use is on demand.
Thanks
