IAs I write this I am topping 97C it will go down to 88C for a few seconds then right backup I know this is way too high but dont know what else to do about it. As long as the laptop is running it stays above 80C. I have taken the back off and blown out the dust from inside the laptop, and bought a nice aluminum laptop cooling pad with fans that has helped some, but when ever i play certain games or burn a dvd it shoots way up in the high 90s or even higher no matter what i do. It has even shut down a few times, The fan used to be very loud but suddenly I dont hear it at all so I downloaded Speedfan to keep an eye on my temp and rpms but SpeenFan will not tell me if my fan is even running,. I would replace the fan myself(unless it needs soldered to the mobo) if I knew that is was not functioning properly. Is there a reliable utility that wil tell me if it is actually working at all, and also is there anything else i can do to keep it cool. I saw a fan online that attaches to the outside of the laptop vents to help with cooling is this hype or could this really help? Any other ideas or thoughts that might help would be appreciated.
Thanks
