[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 918515, member: 24098"] If the notebook was overheating, it would shut down. Sounds like it's just running very warm. There's a few things you could do. The first thing I'd try is to give the exhaust vents a few short blasts of compressed air to loosen up any dust or debris clogging the vents. If that doesn't clear up the problem, you might want to take a look in Activity Monitor, click on the CPU % header to sort by that field and see if there is a process that is spiking the CPU, making the machine run warmer.
