it's a start, however I would really look into getting the fan itself fixed.

modern notebooks get very hot before they shutdown; i've seen machines get so hot that the plastic has melted.

I would seriously look at getting the fan sorted out.

Also, be sure to find out that the warranty only applies in america or whether you can transfer the warranty to where ever you live

yes but couldnt i try and open it up to see if the wire has come loose(i would loose my warranty then even though i cant get if fixed over in england or the e.u because its us laptop like i said earlier)then i could see if that is the problem its,really peeing me off now

its very unlikely that the wire is loose but knock yourself out

before you open it can you tell me what type of laptop it is? I'll try to get your sorted out as best I can.

It's a Sony Vaio VGN-N130G, trust me though you will not find a fan for that model anywhere. I've driven myself round the bend for hours looking for one.

Oh yeah, he's my brother!
