Bios Hardware Hack?

So my Latitude E7450 runs the fan up and down in an very annoying way.  It also video tapes the screen and the HD is always in action. I tried everything nothing works. Something hints it might be hacked by hardware. Is there a chance to check this?

    The Latitude E7450 was released 11 years ago. How old is this one? Insert the private Service Tag HERE to find out the warranty start and end date. Have you considered removing the base cover page 12, using compressed air and blowing all dust out of fans? For basic virus check, Windows OS provides to you the Windows Defender.
