Laptop Fan always at full speed

Hello all,

my laptop was getting too hot and I decided to open it and clean it(haven't done that in 5-6 years).I opened the cpu fan which had A LOT of dust in it and cleaned it. I also replaced the thermal paste on the cpu & gpu.

Now the temperatures are low (40-45C) but the fan always runs at full speed. Before the cleaning it run at full speed while I was playing a game and the temperatures were high.
Now even with 45C it runs at full speed.

Any suggestions on what to look?

Thank you
 
Not sure what program you are using, but you might want to look at other temps listed and see if any are pretty high.

Do you think you got any of the thermal compound on a sensor? There are usually a couple on the board.
