Hi@Tom219,
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Apologies for all the inconvenience
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help,
The following list describes some causes of excessive heat , Request you to follow the below troubleshooting steps
- Dust inside the laptop.
- A new component, such as a hard drive, is added. The extra component causes the power supply to work harder and generate more heat. Extra heat also radiates off the new component and adds to the temperature inside the case.
- Over time, some cooling fans might slow down and wear out, as the laptop is getting hot, depending on the usage of the laptop.
- High ambient room temperature.
Step 1: Removing dust and lint by cleaning vents
Step 2: Ensuring proper space for ventilation
Step 3: Updating the BIOS ( Make sure Power adaptor connected to notebook )
Step 4: Using HP CoolSense technology
Step 5: Update the Windows
Step 6:Update Drivers from HP Support Assistance
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
