I don't have overheating problems on my Acer Aspire 5920. What do you have the laptop sitting on? Table? Can you raise is to get some more airflow under the bottom? I have a length of timber under the back of the laptop to raise the back and provide a better typing angle, doesn't look pretty but is cheap and works.

I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
