These days it has seemed like my fan on my notebook, (Inspiron 6000) has been
working way too hard. My roommate has the same computer pretty much and his
is a lot more quiet. It seems like mine is always sounding like its trying to
run or read a disk, or just processing too hard. I’m really not sure. It
doesn't seem to help when I restart either.
Thanks

Contact Dell.
You got Complete Care on it, right?
 
I have cured this in the past by cleaning the fan blades.
The blades should be visible-usually in the back. Try some compressed air or
Q Tips.
 
Hi
Sounds like its time to get the fan replaced. before it packs up
completly.
