This laptop is literally hot, Last year I bought a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo D1845, It has a 3.2 Gb P4 cpu, 60Gb hdd, 128 Graphics Card. The problem is it gets really really hot, to the point that you cannot leave your hand on it(left side) for too long before it gets unbearable, is this the cpu, hdd or graphics card or all that makes it get this hot.
I think its more the cpu, i bought this at the time as I do boring night shifts and needed a gaming machine to keep me awake at night and was pretty much the best sepc at the time.
So is there a cure to this?

Icepacks perhaps?

heh.

You're probably blocking the fan.

If you use your laptop on a table you could try something like put something such as beer mats, match boxes etc under each corner of the laptop to let air underneath. If you're using it on a bed or sofa then you're jsut gonna have to live with it.

I guess i need to buy a little fan to put near it, ok chears

Some years ago I built a few notebooks that had 3.2E GHz Pentium 4s - the result was a catastrophe. 3.2 GHz has a TDP of 103W, which makes it very difficult to dissipate the heat. In any event, the Thermal Specification is 73.2 degrees, so the unit can quite conceivably get too hot to handle before the CPU dies. In fact, these Clevo units would end up discolouring due to the heat, and their intake fans would get absolutely clogged with dust from spinning at maximum revs whenever the load was on. The simple fact is, Prescott was a desktop processor, and it was even a hot and power hungry one at that. This was the exact reason why Intel developed the faster, cooler, Pentium M.

Anyway, there are some solutions. You should be able to find a notebook stand that will elevate the notebook just sufficiently that the fans underneath are not obstructed. You can also find strips of low profile cooling fans specially designed to sit under a laptop and blow cool air (even a hot summers day is cool by comparison) on the underside of the unit. Both these things can make a significant difference in keeping the unit cool, ensuring better stability and longevity.

Would I be able to change the CPU for another one? but im not sure what the Mobo can take, I was going to change it for my 3.06 from my desktop,but my desktop would not take the 3.2 from the laptop. Can Mobo's be changed on laptops if i were to change the cpu or is this not an option?

This is hypothetically possible, but not at all advisable for a number of reasons.

Realistically, unless you have a really good idea what you're doing, or you go back to the vendor, laptop CPUs are immutable
