Can you see the dust?.  That dust should not be there, the fan sucks in cool air from outside the laptop and if you look closely at the picture you can see the silver grills at the top of the picture. The cool air cools down these grills and the grills are connected to a copper heatsink as shown to the left. This heatsink sits on top of the processor. In the bottom left of the image is the heatsink that covers the processor. So the heat from the processor needs to be channeled to the fan area. If the thick layer of dust is blocking the fan, what do you think will happen to the processor. Thats right it will overheat. Thats why cleaning out the fans is so important. This dust does not accumulate over a few months, unless you work in a woodyard like some of our customers. This dust acumulates after a year or two. Can you see the hairs in the dust ?. They are like sticky glue straws holding the dust together. Having pets in the house can increase the chances of your laptop over heating.
