Excessive heat from vgn-A690 (advise please)

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Hi i been noticing my laptop getting very hot at the bottom (uncomfortably hot). I use speedfan to monitor temp but only two thing is picked up: HD0 and Temp1 so i am thinking temp1 is cpu temp. When i watch dvd movie with AC adapter plugged in i get temp of ~55 celcius for temp1. The bottom of the laptop is very hot however the fan does not turn on. I rarely see/feel heat being blown out the back where the heatsink is. Is there anyway to get the fan to go off more so the bottom of laptop stays cooler? Or anyway i can find out if fan is working properly. I have the latest bios. I also read about unvolting but not too sure how to do it and will look into it, but is this normal? Anyone has the vgn-a series laptop? How hot or cool is yours running? do you feel excessive heat at the bottom? I know its a big laptop and all but just want to see what others have to say...thanks in advance for any info or advice

Mine runs cool all the time. The fans do come on regularly as well. That may be your problem .
