Noise when starting PC

Hello people!! I'm quite new to this forum and tothe Alienware products, I only wanted to know a quick thing, and that if is normal for the Alienware fans to kick loudly when turning on the PC. I got an X51 R2, and I dunno if the fan should be that noisy when it starts, any answer is appreciated ;3

Hi,

It's normal on the for the fans to start up a bit loud, then quiet down when you get to the desktop. If the fans don't slow down after you get to Windows or if they're running louder than usual, it might be a problem with the Alienware Command Center that controls the fans, in that case, I recommend re-installing the software to fix the problem. See this article for step-by-step instructions.
