[SOLVED] Weird fan behavior - Alienware 18

Hi, I communicate because I could not find any topic to answer my situation:
When i turn on the computer, after 1 or 5 minutes, the fans (or any of them) go really fast and the system freezes. This takes about 15 seconds and then everything returns to normal. This happens every time I turn on the computer.
I cleaned the fans and analyzed the temperatures of the cores, but everything seems under control.
I would greatly appreciate if you could help me with this problem because I worry that can be serious.
Thanks in advance for your attention.

I uninstalled the Dell Support Assistant and the problem was solved.

Hello, sorry I can't be of help, but I'm having the exact same issue on my alienware 17. I posted a thread and got no attention from Dell. If anyone could find a solution, that would be amazing.
