Question

Help answer this question below.

My daughters laptop gets so hot you can't set it in your lap to work because it will burn your legs, then it's shuts off. It even melted the plug that you use to get wall power. Is this something that I can get fixed, or just trash it and get a new one?

    as all the folks her suggested cleaning them is very important, because dust, lint etc plugging up the vents is a death sentence to a laptop but the #1 life savor for a laptop is the cool mat for the underside.
    cost is $21-30 and they are found at Wal-mart, Sam's Club, Staples, Office max etc.
    In your case if this has warranty have it checked out.
