Hello friends,
I have a Dell XPS M1530 laptop purchased two and a half years back. The laptop had a heating issue since the beginning, the palm rest area burns even during normal load like surfing the web (using firefox) or MS office usage. While playing games, it goes over the roof and sometimes it just restarts or shuts down due to excessive heating.
During the first year (guarantee period), I got my hard disk and heat sink changed. But, within a year it was again kaput, hard disk had developed bad sectors. Now, they won't let me buy normal warranty because if HDD is damaged, they have some pacakges that are costing over the rood (18k something for a year).
Now, this laptop is heating to 70-75 degrees during normal operations and palm rest is so hot that it is getting difficult to work. I cannot keep it on my lap and watch movies. It just pains me to see such a costly machine having such issues.
Please help me get out of this problem.
