    Download Core Temp and post back what your temps are like.

    Mine on an old Pentium 4 are idling at around 50, so if yours are around that then your computer is safe from becoming fried.

    I can't really help you with fixing the fan problem, it's most likely some kind of software error, maybe try googling your laptop model and fan problem.

    i downloaded that and they are all running at around the 50 mark give or take 1 or 2%.
    i really dont know what could be affecting the fan

    EDIT: this morning the cores have a max of 65% even though all i have open is chrome and word and the fan is still spinning constantly.

    think its time to email Sony
