I have an HP pavilion g6 with Intel core i7.
I have had the problem for a long time that my laptop gets very fast, very hot and the fan disengages. In the task manager, the CPU and data carrier are often busy. I have already formatted my laptop, installed factory settings. BIOS update etc… Settings made in the laptop too, but none of this worked. Fan removed and cleaned. In addition, the battery drains very quickly. Could there be something wrong with the battery?
Was it "always" like this - how old is the laptop now?
No, at the beginning it was still normal, after the guarantee it started slowly… Now 4 years old
Clean the entire laptop, there's bound to be a lot of dust in there
Yes, so 4years. It can be because of dust or something else
The thermal paste is probably petrified. But you can only renew it if you remove the cooler, i.e. Take the entire laptop apart.
Alternatively (not the cause, but only the symptoms) buy a laptop undercooler, for example https://geizhals.de/...at&hloc=de
Had one in use (but a Zalman model that is no longer available), it was almost inaudible and cooled the laptop down by 20 ° C.
I wrote above that I have already cleaned it, etc.
Yes, but completely?
