Hi mohamedbba2009,
welcome to Club VAIO..![]()
Thanks for sharing your solution but as Sony have announced that they will cover the cost of repair during the first 4 years following the date of purchase of CS series Vaio's that develope the fan problem, I wouldn't recommend that CS series owners follow your advice epecially if they are still within their first four years of ownership as this will void any chance of Sony doing the repair..![]()
