Laptop overheating
Start with simple airflow and software checks rather than opening the laptop immediately.
What to try
- Use the laptop on a hard, flat surface so vents can breathe.
- Close apps using unusually high CPU resources.
- Restart the laptop and install normal system updates.
- Keep vents clear of dust and avoid blocking them with fabric.
- If temperatures remain abnormal, get the cooling system checked by a qualified technician.
Safety note
Do not use unsafe cooling methods or liquid near the laptop. If the device becomes extremely hot or behaves abnormally, stop using it and seek professional help.
