I was working on homework and attending zoom lectures from about 1-4. It was plugged in while I was working, but this was a normal day for me. I had done nothing out of the ordinary with my laptop. When I went back to my laptop to watch a movie at around 8, it was hot and would not turn on. It had not been hot at all previously during the day. I have unplugged the laptop and am letting it sit open in hopes that it will cool down. I left it like this for about an hour, but it does not seem to have worked and the laptop is still hot. I am going to leave it like this overnight, but most of my classes are online due to covid, and I have a lot of resources kept on my laptop that I do not want to lose.
Hello, You may do these trials: Firstly, check the heat sink to see if it is loose or not working properly. Secondly, you’d better put the laptop on a flat and hard surface, so that heat can be dissipated better. Thirdly, check the battery and change the unhealthy one. If you are not a pro, you can take the laptop to a professional staff to take it apart to check the components. You are suggested to recover the important data in advance to ensure data security.
