Notebook crashing after seconds of full speed fan

Hey guys.
Maybe anyone of you can at least tell me, whats wrong with my notebook.

I own an older Lenovo IdeaPad Z510.
Since a few months ago, it wont start properly anymore.
It turns on normaly at first. You can open the BIOS, the NOVO Button Menu, i guess you could even boot an OS.
But after 1 or 2 seconds it ramps up the fan to 100%.
It keeps it like that for a few seconds and then turns off instantly.

Any ideas? Maybe even how to fix it?

Thanks and kind regards,
Oliver aka. XortiX

Sound's like its getting too hot call the police and the fireman.

 

Seriously though, try taking it outside and blasting some compressed hair through the fan intakes

I'm an IT System Admin with 15+ years worth of XP, plus I've been tinkering computers since I was old enough to hold a screwdriver, so I usually know what I'm talking about.

Yeah kinda tried that already.
Let's say, the mainboard wasn't inside the frame anymore. So it definetly had enough air...

Ok, next thing I'd do is replace the thermal paste on the cpu, (and gpu if it has a dedicated one.)

I'll try that.

EDIT:
Nope. Didn't change a thing. Still does it 😕
