my laptop fan randomly turns off and on

Name: Anonymous 2006-04-25 5:23

This wouldn't be a problem but I use it for gaming, and whenever the fans turns off or on it creates lag for about 2-4 seconds. I googled and tried researching, but i'm not sure what exactly the problem is.

The fan only really works when i play games or putting a lot of stress on the cpu. It will only stay on for maybe a minute at most and will continue to go on and off for the duration of my playing time. It only recently started doing this.

here's all the info I know about this laptop.
Compaq presario 2200 1.4ghz 512mb ram. Intel Celeron running win xp pro sp2

would the Intel Extreme graphics controller properties help? because i dunno anything about the settings.

Any info on this would be appreciated. thanks.
