HP ProBook 450 G1 Notebook PC

My laptop has been over heating for a month now. Every time I use it the rest pad next to the mouse pad is way too hot and causes discomfort and pain in the hand . I know the issue could be the cooling system is blocked so when I tried to open the laptop it wouldn't open even though I removed all the visible screws from the back.

Can you tell me how to open this specific model and if there is specific screws i missed that could be hidden?

And if there is any other possible causes for this over heating problem that I am unaware of?

Thanks a lot.

Windows 10 64x bit.

product name : HP ProBook 450 G1 Notebook PC

product number: F7Y12EA

I upgraded it to 16 GB ram just recently as it has been running on 8 GB ram
