    Hey,
    My old IBM T30 has started to freze after about 20 mins of use and I believe it is the fan causing it, before you could easily feel the air coming out and now nothing and it does get fairly warm.

    Some my question is, how can I fix this?

    For whom it may concern, I took aprt the laptop according to the instructions on the IBM/Lenovo website and removed the Fan Chasis.

    Removed any dust and reseated the fan.

    Booted up and away ya go
