Gaming Laptop Overheating Problem

[tpformbh]

look on your driver disk, if there's any ACPI driver...try to install it and cross fingers that it will work
Nope, I can't find anything that says ACPI on it..


What's your laptop model and its producer?

Dell XPS M1530

Mhm...maybe updating the BIOS would solve the problem...?

I've had that when I installed an hacked system...the fans were blocked, won't run, or had the false seetings...updating the BIOS solved the problem...

I updated the BIOS to the latest one on Saturday and I don't think that was the problem.

Did you try my suggestion??!

hm...then it shouldn't have this problem
did you call the dell support hotline? your laptop shouldn't need a coolpad by default

Don't rule out the obvious; use a pile of coasters under each corner to raise it off your desk by an inch. Worked brilliantly for one of my friends.

Try the above, Psyfira just beat me to it
