Hi there,
I've just registered to the forum since I seem to have the same problem as slevenjr did (
here) and can't fix it.
I've ran MobileMeter and it shows around 68º on idle and the hdd at 39º. I have my vaio for a year and a half now and i've noticed it overheats a lot, altough it doesn't shuts down. I've bought a cool pad and it seems to be a bit cooler, but as the MobileMeter shows, still not cool enough. There is no visible dust on the fan. Lately, like slevenjr, after a restart, it just started running extremely slow and hot.
What should I do? Are there any programs I can use to detect if any software or driver is causing the overheating?
Thanks.
