Hello,
It's been a little while since my laptop (Emachines E528) has been shutting down by itself. Just like that! Like a power cut. I've also noticed that my fan is making a lot more noise than before and that the computer is overheating a lot. I've searched all over the internet for answers, and on several occasions, it was recommended to clean the fan, but I can't reach it. I've unscrewed everything, but I don't know where it is or how to get to it. I'm not very skilled in this area, so please forgive me.
Thank you for your future responses.

Hello,
The fan is located under the machine. You often need to disassemble the machine to access it (usually, this involves removing about twenty screws).
The fans used by the ACER / emachines group are generally of poor quality.
What you should do in your case:
- disassemble and clean the processor fan,
- take the opportunity to reapply thermal paste on the processor.
Once the operation is completed, use this type of stand to increase cooling and thus extend the life of your computer:
