Hi @Markmcg111 ,

Welcome to The HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

I’m sorry to hear that your HP Z2 Tower G9 Workstation is overheating. However, I am unable to arrange for a technician to call out directly. Instead, I recommend taking the following steps:

1. Check Ventilation:

   • Ensure that the workstation is placed in a well-ventilated area, and that there are no obstructions around the air vents.
   • Check for dust buildup around the vents and clean them if necessary using compressed air.

2. Check Cooling System:

   • Verify that all fans within the PC casing are operational and running smoothly.
   • Ensure that the CPU cooler and any additional cooling mechanisms are functioning properly.

3. Run Diagnostics:

   • Utilize HP's built-in diagnostics software such as HP PC Hardware Diagnostics to identify any failing components or configurations causing the issue.

4. Update Drivers and BIOS:

   • Make sure all drivers and BIOS are updated to the latest versions from HP’s support website.
