So I did some research on the touch screen and I decided to get one from best buy

I touch screen laptop is defiantly faster than my previous laptop and a lot smaller but there are some concerns and questions that I have.  

1.      Fan being too loud

a.       I've read around and it seems when the laptop is connected to the power cord that the fan will be extremely loud.  I literally think my mom’s hair dryer is slightly quieter than the laptop!!!  I’ve read around and only could find that you can try reducing the amount of fan time being turned on in the bios.  This doesn’t seem to make that much a difference to me, and it seems really loud!  I wasn’t quite sure if anyone knew any custom software or so that can adjust the fan, or I’m just SOL and I have to deal with the fan issue since this portable touch screen is pretty good for the value as compared to the others on the market?

2.      To many processes running in task manager at once

a.       This is my first 64bit system so I’m not too aware of how exactly it runs.  I’ve been dealing with 32 bit systems and I’ve never had over 60 or so process occurring at one time and I’ve had as low as 39 when using a 32 bit system.  I tried reviewing the task manager in the 64 bit system and I’m not quite sure what exactly or how much I can actually go down to.  I’ve seen up to as 99 processing occurring at once on this p.c and was wondering if anyone has reduced their processes drastically so that they have fewer than 60? 

b.      I find it quite sad that even Firefox will lag tremendesly when loading on this computer but on a single core laptop that is 3 years old has no lag issues at all., 

3.      During the first 3 weeks of purchase the computer starting making some buzzing noises.

a.       From what I read on certain forums on here and such it looks like it’s an issue with how they structured the motherboard of the system.  I wasn’t sure if hp was going to consider recalling these systems, or this is considered “normal” enough to not bring any concerns.

Based on the specs of the laptop I would think the performance level to be a lot higher, but with all these programs and tasks occurring at once it really is hindering the full capabilities of the system.  I was wondering if windows 7 is suppose to drastically correct all these issues if any.  I hope that I can receive some feedback from users that has have had issues and have found solutions to them.  Thank you for your time.
