CodeCrackerx9 Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 Those temps are not too abnormal. If your computer is functioning fine without any freezes or hang ups then everything is ok. Just try to relax and if it still bothers you then go and buy a cooling pad. Hope this helps!

Phnx Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 You say not abnormal, but did you see that he said the hard disk was at that temp..? HDD's are not meant to operate beyond 55-60 deg (depending on the hdd). Check that none of your vents are blocked with dust/clean them out with compressed air, if that doesnt help, contact your system vendor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeCrackerx9 Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 Yes, my bad, That is a hot HDD. I would back up everything on that HDD and send it in for repairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew55 Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 Your idle temps are normal therefore I believe cleaning out your vents will resolve the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolcop06 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 yea thats a hot HDD. my laptop runs VERY warm/hot (haha) and idling i get 35c and surfing the web with music running i have 40-42c. the highest i saw while gaming was 52c i believe. and like i said my lappy is a warm one, and i have a 7200RPM HDD also. so id defiantly check with your laptop vendor and get that checked on/replaced.

Guest Ajit Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 By any chance it will be a motherboard fault???Coz after 1and half hour gaming the air coming from processor is also damn hot with out any blockage..It all started last week i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
