the fans are controlled by heat, when it gets hot the fans spin...
your laptop is getting too hot.

Well I dont think you can fix it because it is mechanical.
Let me ask you, are you downloading alot of things or doing alot of crap that
might make its Kernel and Physical making the fan spin alot.
That will make the fan activate even more so that the heat wouldn't burn it.
Bottom line is that the fan is the cooling system.

Well you could place your laptop near an external fan or window.

When afking you should turn off you're laptop.
Also try to not blog/ clog the vent where the fan is.
Take breaks, for example: it probably isnt the best idea to make the laptop
run for 15 hours.
Last tip: Dont leave the laptop by any radiators or hot places.
Leave it in room temperature.

Get a good laptop cooler.
I've got an Inspiron 9100 notebook (the tank built with PC components), and it got really (nearly dangerously) hot, so I bought one and it's much cooler. Oh, and I reapplied the thermal paste, but I wouldn't recommend you do that...

Don't keep your laptop on your laps because it will most likely block the cooling.
Don't keep it on a pillow

| I leave my laptop on 24/7 torrenting for the last 3 weeks and it's fine. Buy a laptop cooler or put the laptop on a book or something to increase airflow.
