Solving a problem of overheating of a laptop is very similar to solve another type of difficulty. You must first understand the problem and the solution will probably suggest itself.

First, ask yourself a fundamental question: Does your machine is overheating, or is it that your turn is too hot for comfort?

This may seems a strange question, but many people buy their first “laptop” in the hope that they can use them on their tour. It may take a moment to note that we only users who call on laptops. Manufacturers call these machines and laptops there are good reasons for this. It is a fact that they are much too hot to be used on a tour of comfort for more than a few minutes.

In fact, its use in this way can cause health problems and, as you read your manual, you will probably have cautioned against the use of your machine this way.

So, if your computer is too hot so that you can use on your knees, but does not necessarily mean that there is a problem with the machine. If this is your problem, the solution to the machine on a laptop or a desk drawer. Make yourself comfortable before taking the needs of the machine.

How to recognize overheating

If your laptop has to suffer from overheating you find that the symptoms are as follows:

1. The machine is fans loudly and constantly work to the maximum speed.

2. The portable suddenly closed by itself, without warning, perhaps after only 5 to 10 minutes of operation.

3. The notebook will work properly when idling, but will close shortly after you start using software that the processor work (3D games, video players, image or video-editing software, etc.).

If you have any of these symptoms, it is reasonable to assume that your laptop has a problem of overheating, and the next thing is to try to understand what the cause.

Identifying the cause

Of course, your laptop May make a mistake or, in some rare cases, a design problem means that you should talk to your dealer. But the most common explanation is by far one or other of these:

1. You use your laptop in a way that preventing cooling system to function properly.

2. Your laptop cooling system is clogged with dirt and dust.

The good news in both cases, it is very easy to fix. It is not necessary to return your computer to the manufacturer and not need major repair bills. I suggest that you try the solutions here for you assume something else.

Leave your laptop breathe

Most people spend so much time looking at their screens that they very rarely look at the laptop itself. Take a careful look now and see if you can identify two things:

1. The cooling fan exhaust port. It is generally on the side of the machine and easy to find if it is implemented, because it blows warm air on your part.

2. The air grilles. These are usually just a series of slots in the cabinet, which leaves the air in the machine. They are not as clear and located somewhere on the side, but more likely these days, they are responsible.

Is not very exciting to watch, but they are among the most essential of your machine. If they are blocked on the machine shut down very quickly shortly thereafter. In most cases, this is where the problem lies.

The components of your laptop generate much heat in their work. Your laptop is this heat chilling cold air sucked by the grids of entry and move around all the components of hot. It follows hot air is then blown to the exhaust port. The cooling system is continually throughout your computer is running, and if nothing happens to the flow of air, nothing more is needed to cool the machine.

The problem is that shortly after they discovered a laptop is too hot for use directly on their tour, many people move the machine on a pillow on the couch, or on the carpet. Once they do that, guess what? They started to block air intakes cooling and after some time that their machine is beginning to overheat.

It seems so obvious, but you’d be surprised by the number generally very smart people I met who have never seen an idea and are really surprised why the machine is overheating.

Of course, when you realize what happens, the solution is obvious. Motion simply unit on a flat, hard surface, so that the cooling air to circulate. Runs like a magnet in most cases.

Keep Clean

You probably have not forgotten the lessons of the knowledge that one of the things on the air hot and dry, which is rapidly building a static load on the objects around him. When this happens in your laptop all particles of dust or dirt that will keep the air grilles as stuck inside.

If they do, they begin to build and an insulating layer which prevents the cooling system at work. This insulation is so effective it can lead to serious problems of overheating quickly enough. The solution is to clean the cooling system regularly.

In fact it is a simple procedure and it is not necessary that your device to scrap or do anything that voids the warranty. You need two things:

1. An aerosol air cloth (available from all good PC).

2. A vacuum cleaner with a slit tool.

The procedure is very simple:

1. Make sure the phone is switched off and disconnected from any source of energy before starting.

2. Use the air rag to remove dust blowing through the absorption of the exhaust and grill.

3. At the same time, sucking the substance in bulk with the vacuum cleaner.

Repeat this process every six months or to ensure that your laptop’s cooling system in good working condition without needing a cooling tank under tension or any other gadget.
