See if it has any tools for monitoring temperature, or look at programs like SpeedFan, RealTemp or SIW to monitor the temperature.

Yes, Getting insid a LT can be fun

A Laptop has a battery, so we can rule out the PSU fan (LT Bricks don't have 'em) and the battery will run it if the plug is yanked from the wall.
