Hey

When i started using my laptop it would overheat while beeing idle and doing nothing.

I contacted HP support and after a while they replaced my cpu cooler and it seems to fix the problem.

 

Today the laptop is working just great when not connected to charger\docking station.

the seacond i connect it to power the fan runs extremely loud and cpu reaches 100 degrees when idle and on a cooling surface.

 

I assume theres a bios feature that makes my laptop work faster\better when connected to power, i wish to turn it off.

I know other laptop manufacturers uses a feature called "hybrid charging" but i did not find it on my bios

 

Or, maybe we could limit the cpu poewr consumption\speed to 70% only when connected to power?

anything that will prevent it from overheating\going loud

I use it for music production and the fact that its going loud is very problematic.

 

thanks!
