I have an Asus notebook G1S series gaming laptop ASUS G1S X1 Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz T7200<br>GeForce 8600 GT Gaming Laptop (the only link i could find with the exact specs of mine), which is about 2 years old now. I payed roughly $2,000 for the laptop + another $500 for the warranty(which im going to use here pretty soon, but not sure if they can/will fix my overheating issues. some of my keys have actually partially melted + the face for the dvd drive got too hot and melted itself off, aswell as my f4 key being totally useless due to the little push thingy being completely melted)
the specs on the laptop are:
Geforce 9600M GT(256mb)
core 2 duo @ 2 gigs
86.4gig hd(on the c drive) (cant figure out how to use the other 57.6g on the D drive)
2gig ram
windows vista home-premium 32bit
after my laptop runs for about 30minutes it gets extremely hot, this problem started about 6mo ago. i literately cannot even sit my computer on my lap, otherwise it burns the crap out of me. i have tried using different types of laptop portable tables and none of them work. the first one i had was made of some kind of soft foam material(bad idea, it just absorbs the heat and recycles it back to the laptop) the second one i tried had little vents in it(worked good for about 2 months till it got too hot itself and ended up snapping in 2) and then finally i tried the one with the fan in it(doesnt seem to help any)
so is there anything i can do? im thinking one of my fans are out, ive took apart the laptop and the cpu fan works, but im not sure if there are other fans in here, also this pc used to be quiet when i first got it, now it just sounds like a monster.
