My Laptop is so hot and what can I do?

  1. Use a Lap Desk with fan.
  2. Install a program like SpeedFan (for Windows) or smcFanControl(for OS X).
  3. Lighten the Load – Use Windows Task Manager to see what’s using your CPU so intensively. Disable some programs you don’t need to run on the background.
  4. Fix or clean the fans.
  5. Updating the BIOS.
  6. It could be a hardware issue, for example the battery is dying.
  7. You may want to change the power option to balance.
