Pour some water on it to clean it out.

:p nah maybe there is a wire getting rubbed by it if it way noiser than before?

Try cleaning.

Otherwise change the fan to a bigger/slower running one.

blowing compressed air or cleaning it is usually a temporary fix. just look at buying a new fan, they have lots of quite ones out now a days and there not to pricey. check out newegg.com or something like that that has online reviews to give u an idea which to buy.

and make sure the pc is switched off too

if not, cooling systems can be fairly cheap these days

i fixed my noisy fan by turning my music up so i couldn't hear it, or by bashing the base unit, in the end i was telling people it was ed & mr wicked neo says 'oh i have a spare one' and he posted me it the next day, he's not just a thread closer u know :p
