I adjusted where the laptop sat to open up the fan abit, as it seems noisy and it always came back on after 15-20 mins which lead me to believe the fan was over heating.
Keep it free of dust too now, didn't before! How easy is it to open up and get to it properly? As I just brush the back of the laptop of dust, it prob needs a good clean inside. Anyone can do or needs to get someone proper Title: Re: Pc keeps switching off. Help pls Post by: doubleup on July 01, 2012, 09:34:53 PM Title: Re: Pc keeps switching off.
