    which will properly be fan. there's a loose application you receives carry of referred to as 'smc fan administration'. you are able to search for google to locate it. it is going to make it a lot less annoying to to manually set the cost of the fan. The noise that the laptop makes once you open it should be from the cd rigidity, which makes a noise even as it exams for a disk. once you've a CD inserted, attempt ejecting it and note if that enables. otherwise, it might favor to now not be some thing you are able to turn off.

    You should not turn it off as it is a hardware test completion sound. If it changes to another sound you will know there is a problem with your hardware.
