    Hello everyone,
    well, i bought a new notebook today. There are two thing tho, that really bother me:
    1.) I cant change the resolution (1600*1050) of the screen. If I do, the fonts are all blurred out. Is there any way to change that? I dont really have the knowlegde about windows vista
    2.)
    The sound of the fan is anoying in my eyes. There's got to be a programm to manipulate the speed of the fan. Does anyone know about that?

    I would really appreaciate any help on these probs, since I have to send the notebook back without a solution on that.

    1. You can't really change the resolution of an LCD without it messing up the text, however you can change the font of the text by changing the DPI settings.
    2. You might have a legitamate fan issue here. This laptop is the quietest I have ever hear that had a spinning hard drive. Check for debri by removing the largest panel on the bottom of the laptop.
