Hello @Infferna
Sorry to hear that you are having problems ... I would like to help you.
Let me check your basic system configuration before we dive deeper ... |
(1) Run msinfo32
- Select <System Summary>:
--->>> Copy/screenshot/paste following key/value pairs:
OS Name |
Version |
System Model |
System SKU ( equals HP product number (p/n) ) |
Processor |
BIOS Version/Date |
BaseBoard Product |
BaseBoard Version |
(2) Start Windows <Device Manager>
- Expand <Display adapters>
- Expand <Network adapters>
- Expand <Sound, video and game controllers>
- Expand <Other devices> ? (Those entries are for hardware for which Windows has not loaded a suitable driver)
--->>> Send screenshot
(3) Please report back

Hi, @Ub6424,
Thank you for the reply
1)
2)
I also made a hardware test for fans and temperature control with Hp Pc Hardware diagnostics and the tests were successful (I'll also try to run some extensive tests later). But those temperatures are super high as far as I know and it shouldn't be like this.

Hello @Infferna

(1) When was the last time the thermal paste for CPU and GPU was renewed?
(2) Enable, run and install <Windows Optional Updates>
How to Install Windows 11 Optional Updates & Fix Its Issue

Thank you for your reply.
1) The thermal paste has never been changed. As far as this overheating problem occurred after my laptop repair, I suppose it was not changed. Do the official services change the thermal paste for free if I have a warranty? Do they change it every time the laptop gets to the repair center?
2) Thanks for the link, I don't have any additional updates and yeah, I don't really want to update to W11 as it will take a lot of time to get used to the UI and everything.
3) What exactly do you mean by restarting Windows?
