My laptop OVERHEATS

zainuintel · 09-04-2009, 05:51 PM

OK Ive got a Fujitsu L7320 1.5gb ram 80gb hdd and etc. etc.
and i was on it and it suddenly turned off, the power adapter was in, i felt the side of the PC it was boiled it worked again but it was boiling hot i opened it up but i noticed there was a sheet of metal and a piece of plastic covering the ventilation area on the bottom so i think that's why, i secured everything i got Intel celeron m 1.7ghz

so please tell me how to fix it if you no

are you supposed to take the sheet and plastic offf ????

That's probably the intake vent, so yeah, I'd take that off.

Did you just buy this and that was part of the packaging?

zainuintel · 09-06-2009, 01:37 AM

no its not part of the pckage becuz when i opened it ( the bottom cover)

there was some metal over the plastic cover

so now i drilled some holes in the bottom it does not look good bu who cares

make sure it doesn't have any metal flakes in it from the drill. pictures always help. or get the model number from the model number from the bottom then Google it fora disassembly guide and that should give some pics of what it should like.
