Inspiron 2650
I would like to be able to leave my laptop on to automatically download updates both virus definitions and Windows. I would also like to be able to turn off the monitor at the same time. I can do this with my desktop.
Notebook, however, seems when in hybernation or when screen saver is on, doesn't want to download updates automatically. Am I missing something here?

I have an Inspiron 2650 (@ 3yrs old) and the fan repeatedly runs in an irregular operational cycle; and it is getting louder by the months. Recently (again) I have blown compressed air into the vents and the fan with little improvement. I read on other threads where the Dell heat sinks were being replaced to eliminate such an annoying fan noise from other Dell models and wonder if anyone has had similar experience with their 2650 laptop? - And I would like to know if anyone has resolved the matter. I'm getting tinitus from this machine. Do help if you can.
Thank you, sincerely. - cliffcarusa@hotmail.com

Self explanatory from there.
