The fan on my x61s has been noisy, so I opened the machine and blew
on the fan. When I reassembled and tried to boot, I got a grinding
noise from the fan and it stopped with the message "fan
error." After a few tries, I hit escape on the error message and it
booted. Trying again, it booted normally.
How best to proceed? Might this be a transitory problem?
My t60 fan was noisy just pushing on it reseated it and now its quiet again.
I hope you put something between the blades of the fan before blowing to stop
it over revving which could put undue stress on the bearing.
