You can clean the vents with compressed air.

You shouldn't change the BIOS unless you have serious issues with your machine.

The thing is it can hurt, it all depends if it goes well or not. Also Sony do change bits to their thermal system so if they did then they might have increased the fans.

The best thing you can do is open an eSupport account case.

hmm I cannot create an esupport account, because my email not exists but i'm sure it's the right email address. Same as I used when i registered my vaio..

"Hi,

Try emailing support@vaio-link.com which is a general support email address. Otherwise www.vaio-link.com has contact phone numbers for you to try.

eSupport is becoming a major headache.
