At the moment I type this, it's not making any unusual noise. After I took the side panel off yesterday and stopped the fan with my finger 4-5 times, it actually ran for quite a long time without interruption. So, I'm hoping that's the only problem. Thanks again.

If that seems to fix the problem, then go for it, but I should mention that what you are doing might be a little like removing the radiator from a car that keeps overheating...
Turn the computer off quickly and disconnect the power when you smell the smoke.
