High CPU Frequency & Temp when plugged in

[Anthony11099]

I was aware that my laptop been acting weirdly starting the past few days, the cpu runs on maximum boost(around 3.8-4ghz) low utility when plugged in and causing the cpu temp strikes to 90c on idle and the fans are spinning rapidly. But back to normal on battery. Anyone pls help?

I reviewed your post and I understand that the computer is overheating when connected to AC power and the CPU hitting maximum clock speeds.

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

I recommend you update the BIOS and the graphics driver from the below link and check whether the issue is resolved.

BIOS: https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp111001-111500/sp111188.exe

Intel: https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp105501-106000/sp105556.exe

Nvidia: https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp105501-106000/sp105558.exe

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!

Neither of them works, contacted live agent and the support they gave are not fixing the problem either.
