Problem with Overheating

GreekWay

I have a problem with my laptop. I think after couple of hours on it overheats and shut downs. I have bought a stand with a cooler, things are a bit better now but when I connect my second monitor still the same problem occurs.

Help please...:)

Not much you can do about it.  If it's oldish or has been in a dusty / area with cats / dogs you could try vacuuming the dust/hair/fluff out of it.  The only safe way is to use a normal vacuum cleaner with the nozzle attachment and point it into any ventilation slots you can find and hope it sucks out any blockages.

Like this but also do the side / back vents.

Yeah. We had a really good time. Altough it didn't last too long.

Hopefully we will meet again and play for longer.
