I figured it could be that system would have some protection against the temperature if the fan was not working, correct me if I'm wrong, did not fail to boot the laptop but I echo tests to remove the fan and try to boot the laptop but does not. If you press the power switch are set to three LEDs light up while holding down the switch. I read the error codes dell flash on their website but does none of them but if I press the flashing interrptor stay and if suleto LEDs turn off. http://i36.tinypic.com/21l49oh.gif So discarding the rest before I can only said that the motherboard has broken. If you would think that is what might have happened or bearings in a correct solution esterna I would be grateful. If it is not possible, I have come to a large web Regards Excellent tutorial and well explained

It's funny that the dust buildup didn't occur to me as the cause, it doesn't take much of a dust bunny to clog the grill, and all gear are dust bunny magnets. I didn't have a can of compressed air but I DID have a dyson vacuum (with very strong suction) I'm sure that there is static electricity dangers by doing this approach, so beware! Without disassembling the laptop I 1) placed it perfectly flat against the fan cover and heard the fan spin up ...incredibly fast, this centrifugal motion I'm sure tossed off anything on the blades and probably got some on the walls as well. 2) I coverd part of the vacuum intake up and placed it over the side grill till I heard some resistance. Restarted, so far no issues. Prior it was on strong and off again ever few seconds. VERY annoying. Great site! Thanks for the headsup.
