Post subject:  Noisy fan

I've not got much of a clue about these things but the fan on my motherboard is whining like mad.
It's a nforce4-a939 board.
The noise does stop from time to time but can get very annoying after a while :x

Any suggestions as to the best way to cure it?

Not much dust i gave it all a good clean yesterday.
It's not a constant noise just every second or two it makes a quick noise.
I'll maybe try going further in and cleaning a bit more.

try moving it around a bit :/ maybe its vibrating on something.

if its a little pecky one like intel's then maybe its best to get a big silent fan, i've got one and its dead quiet.
