windows update question

windows did an update earlier and since the reboot the fan on the laptop is on and off like a tarts pants for 2-3 second bursts why is that, any ideas?

 

It may have got stuck in a sub route somewhere.
CTRL ALT DELETE and have a look at what the processor is up to.
If it doesn't stop after a restart then restore to previous setting until Microsoft realise and sort it out.

 

i aint got a clue what to look for in the processer thingy theres 89 things running is all i know lol

 

I can guess what most of them are

 

Turn it off and on. Lol

 

no i only have 1 window open, what i mean is there's loads of "things" like .exe stuff i have no idea on computers

 

I have no idea either - I believe the official term is shizzle.

 

it works so i suppose i don't care really, just annoying how the fan keeps going on and off - i never usually hear it.

 

Hit it like we used to with old teles when the picture went

 

Open a command window and type

> kill -9 "asian babes volume 7"

This should restore performance.

 

Dodgy windows updates ,turn them off

 

haha, that deffo isn't my bag baby, wrong continent for a start and without someone playing the race card wrong tone...... anyways i pride myself on not going on dodgy sites and clicking on any links which is why i've only had 2 computers in the last 15 years - they don't tend to catch things.

as for turning off windows updates @Lord Congi why? update means improve - i don't go with all the spying crap so i let it do what it's meant to.

 

Get an Apple Mac Pro,dont get ANY problems.

 

unlike you dude, i'm not rich, i do however work and don't complain about it, i was asking why (due to an update my fan is running) if you're feeling flush though i'll pm my addy and you can post me a mac?

 

^this. Just buy a Macbook.

 

ahhhh, two people who are advising on a new purchase i can't afford - thanks.

 

Me neither,i won it.and so do i,and i'd love to but i cant.However my cousin works for a it company and im quite happy to ask him for you.

 

I T i mean...

 

i knew what you meant my friend, as for asking your mate, no worries - to be fair i wouldn't have a clue what to do if someone did tell me, i'll just wait for the next update i guess, i was just hoping someone was going to say summat easy/sensible/understandable.

 

It's probably a poorly thought out idea from Microsoft to attempt to save power consumption.
