Why does the fan in my laptop make sounds?

Everytime the fan turns on when my laptop is on, the fan makes a noice that sounds like somthing is blocking the fan and the fan keeps hitting whatever it is thats blocking it. When the laptop overheats, you can hear the sound until the fan stops running.

Here is a link for you to download the service manual for your computer. It sounds as though there is something partially blocking the fan and the manual will assist you in dissembling to repair the fan.

Good luck.
