Re: hp laptop help
Hi,
Have you tried cleaning the vents/heatsink/fan areas? Try using an air brush or a small air compressor or a can of compressed air, these can blow the dust out and help your laptop breathe easier. These unwanted materials block the air flow that even if you use a cooling pad with the largest fan you can find, the effect is almost the same.
If you are brave enough to open the laptop then it is good if you can clean the insides. But then again... this is not needed as long as you have blown out most if not all of the dust. Btw the dust can also make your fans run slower.. just imagine how it can spin fast if it is covered with dust and/or pet hair.
NHC and SPeedFan (AFAIK) cannot control the fans of laptops. They do help you see how high your temp gets.
One more thing.. if you are running on AC during these circumstances, remove your battery. A dying battery (those that are having problems charging) can sometimes heat up. The same with a fast hard drive. All these contribute to the total amount of heat released by the system.
