hp 17 inch laptop over heating and will not load csgo

[teal hedge]

any suggestions

[visual solar]

179 celsius? holy shit. are your fans working AT ALL?

[stable finch]

BRUH

I thought windows shut down at 100

Anyway, check if your fans are working

Listen for them

Actually first check the warranty if you can, get it fixed by hp

But if fan not working open computer up and disconnect and reconnect fan cables

[lusty quest]

[red zephyr]

damn bruh

[stable finch]

Don't even load windows

Take the hard drive out and hope that it doesn't overheat doing nothing

[knotty bane]

like not even chrome

[quaint jacinth]

I reckon something funny's going on with your temp sensors or HWinfo, CPU's do not get that hot without force shutting down and I wouldn't expect it to be at 120c at 2.7 watts for any length of time

[knotty bane]

hw info uses implemented sensors not their own

[red pollen]

windows doesn't care about your temperature

[knotty bane]

its bios that shuts down which shuts down windows

[quaint jacinth]

Doesn't mean the data as interpreted is correct

[red pollen]

after windows boots, the bios doesn't run anymore, it can't shutdown anything

[knotty bane]

nt tru

[red pollen]

it is true, the second the windows bootloader exits firmware services, firmware is totally inactive

your firmware is software, no one prevents windows from destroying it

and using that memory for itself

your CPU has this thing called ACPI inside of it which controls power management, it's not firmware, but actual logic on silicon

baw baw

[stable finch]

It does. My computer overheated and burnt me a few days ago and then shut down

[red pollen]

ACPI can tell the OS to shutdown or the CPU can just shutdown the system itself
