The original HP warranty should still be valid.

It could be an overheating problem.

 

Google-search for "download free SPECCY".

Download, install, and run this software, to show the temperature:

* of the CPU

* of the motherboard

* of the disk-drive

 

and speed (RPM/revolutions per minute) of the fan(s).

 

Tell us the numbers.

 

Or, it could be a hardware problem.

Turn the computer off.

Remove the battery.

Disconnect the AC power.

Remove the "extra" RAM, leaving only the original HP-supplied RAM.

Connect the AC power.

Turn the computer on, and press a key to run the built-in HP hardware diagnostics.

Tell us the pass/fail status of each test.

Hello, I've got the same issue on on my Probook 450 G3 as well, my CPU average temp is around 50 °C, the motherboard is avaraging 37 °C and the alarming thing I am getting is on the 2048MB ATI AMD Radeon R7 M340 (HP) graphics, showing a whopping 511°C .

> showing a whopping 511°C .

 

Yikes!

 

Do you have to wear fireproof gloves to come near the keyboard?

 

Google-search for "download free SPECCY".

Download, install, and run it, to see what values it reports.

Tell us the numbers.

 

HP Recommended

Lol I used SPECCY to get those values. See attached snapshot.Speccy Snap.jpg

 

 

HP Recommended

Quite obviously, the version of SPECCY that you have installed has a "bug".

 

The authors of the software (PIRIFORM) have their own "forum".

 

See: https://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=42888

 

for reporting "bugs" in SPECCY, such as you have encountered.

 

There is a mention of 'HWMONITOR' software -- presumably, some other program with similar functionality.

I wonder what values it will report.

 

HP Recommended

Has anyone found a solution for this. Cause i have the same problem. But it only happens when i connect the charger to the unit
