Fan running on high

15 years ago

I have a Dell computer that's a few years old. During the hot summer months, the computer's fan seems to run on high, and the system slows down a lot. The unit itself doesn't get hot however.

I moved it to the cool basement last summer, but would like to avoid that this year. Right now it's on the 2nd floor with a south facing window, so it can get warm in the room (since the AC doesn't seem to want to come upstairs!)

Any ideas on what could be wrong? Once the cool weather comes, the computer works great.

Any suggestions are welcome.
