My house is only 22 degreees and it is overheating. I am leaning up on pile of papers and using it to create more airflow underneath. It shakes a bit. Maybe I will glue four small black pieces of plastic to give it legs and permanent airflow to reduce problem. The laptop was cheap, and now we know why.

After returning to HP service center 3 times (if not wrong), the problem been solved. According to them, the thermal paste is not properly contacted with CPU, and the heat cannot transfer to heat pipe. Not sure why they take 3 times to solve simple issue but anyway (fingers cross) hope it won't happen again. Hi James,

These days, overheating is a pretty common and scary experience on laptops eh. I am rather surprised that it happened to Compaq notebooks too. I have an almost 5 years old Compaq notebook and it has been excellent. HP should have given you a new replacement ! Hi Waco,
