My HP laptop is now 8.5 years old. Recently, the fan has started making a noise and I get Error 90B almost every time I boot. The noise isn't too loud, but it is not normal either.
This is now my secondary laptop, so my use is quite light, except when I am exploring Windows installation, etc.
The temperatures as recorded by Speccy, SpeedFan, CoreTemp are all within normal limits (under 60°C) most of the time.
Can I continue using the laptop without replacing the fan (which spare is not easily available for this model) and without damaging the other components?
The laptop is running perfectly fine otherwise.
Thanks.
