Overheating Problem!

jaketuricchi · 27 Dec 2012 at 14:51

I have recently encountered an overheating problem on my laptop. There was no problem, but upon updating amd graphics drivers ive found that it overheats easily and makes so much more noise. Ive tried downgrading the graphcs drivers but nothing has changed and it continues to overheat.

There has been no change with the fans/processor, the update in drivers brought the problem on alone i believe, but i can't seem to fix it now. The card is part of the raedon hd 44xx series (yeah its not a gaming system).

Anyone have any ideas or this ever happened to anyone?

ps: not sure if this is hardware - if not sorry!

Or maybe, a Mod you could move this, save opening another thread.

have you done as previously suggested and cleaned the laptop out of dust?

Dont think its a dust problem simply because there was no problem whatsoever before the update of drivers. Its not like updating drivers can bring about a dust problem

, thanks anyway!

Any other suggestions?
