HP ProBook 4510s

A client asked if I could fit some more RAM to his HP ProBook 5410s laptop. They also mentioned it was extremely noisy. With this style of notebook you have to remove the keyboard to fir the ram. I inspected the fan and brushed the dusk away. Put the laptop back together to find that did not help with the fan revving at high speed. Dismantled it again and this time used an air compressor to clean out.
As I was dusting a rather large chuck of dust dislodged for the CPU air chamber exhaust section. Assemble the laptop back together and all was good.
