    Laptop fan

    Hi, I have a laptop here that is overheating and shutting down. I stripped it down for cleaning but found it nice and clean so I ordered a new fan (Toshiba Satellite L670). The fan arrived but the problem remains.

    I put my multimeter to the fan connect on the mobo and got 2.01v at power on, and it jumped to 2.54v when the temp reached 65c, it stayed at 2.54v up to 89c at which point the laptop shut itself down.

    The original fan is 5v 0.4a the new fan 5v 2a

    Any clues?

    If the heatsink wasn't blocked with lint as is usual and the heatsink is fitted correctly with new thermal paste, try changing the CPU as that is where the thermal sensor is.

        MSI GF63 THIN 11UCX (MS-16R6) LAPTOP WON'T TURN ON AFTER RESTARTING
        by RdeveLabs
        To all the members here...

        Let me tell you a little bit about what happened to my laptop (MSI GF63 THIN 11UCX model: MS-16R6) that “maybe” you know how to solve this problem.

        So before this problem happened, my laptop was running smoothly. When I wanted to restart my laptop, it looked fine at first. But after I waited for this restart process to take a long time, until finally I panicked (because the restart process did not finish plus the laptop screen only showed a black screen), I immediately pressed and held the power button to force the laptop to turn off. But...
