When I turned my notebook on today I got a overheating error. The room was 85 F since I had not turned on the Air Conditioning yet.
As far as I can tell, the specifications for my CPU have a maximum 100 C rating, with the warning occurring when the CPU reaches 90 C So I downloaded Speedfan and found out my CPU was running hot, over 80C. I configured Speedfan to automatically adjust the fan speed. After doing that and vacuuming out the vents the computer was under 70 C I then changed the power settings to lower the max CPU to 50% and got the temperature to 55C and lower. Finally, I decided to run Combofix. It must have found some things running in the background because now I have a temperature of 42 C Of course the room temperature dropped from 29 C to 25 C too. If I had to do it all over again, I would try Combofix first.
