In October of 2009 I purchased a Dell Latitude E6400. As a tech I did my appointment blockage the specs (CPU, FSB, HDD speed, etc…) and user reviews. Little did I apperceive that beneath the awning was a heating affair that paralyzes the arrangement for hours at a time. Imagine getting abutting to finishing a activity up and all your programs appear to a cutting halt. This is the botheration I faced afterwards spending banknote money for a cast new laptop.
I abandoned the botheration to video usage. Any video accelerated appliance (flash video, DVD playback, slingplayer, etc…) would access my laptops CPU acceptance to 100% afterwards about 20mins of viewing. The processor acceptance wouldn't bead until the computer had been sitting for at atomic an hour. I approved afterlight drivers, afterlight bios, and aswell authoritative the about-face from angle to windows 7. Afterwards I adapted my apparatus to windows 7 and still had the affair I anticipation for abiding all my money went down the toilet, but in a endure canal accomplishment I ran some added utilities and apprehend some added forums and bent the basis could cause of the problem. The cartoon dent (GPU) was over heating causing my CPU to down alarm amid 500MHz and 800MHz.
I apprehend forums about all the bootless attempts to fix the overheating affair that causes 100% CPU usage. Some replaced the calefaction sinks, some replaced centralized fans, some approved to delay on Dell to advance a bios amend to fix heating tables. None of these anchored the issue. Afterwards abysmal anticipation it occurred to me we accept an overheating affair why not add an alien fan. I went and best up a simple laptop fan and alone the overheating issues. I accept two 20" monitors affiliated to my e-port advancing base and this apparent my all my problems. Now I adulation my laptop and it works great.
