I've owned my TM8204 for about 10 months now. When I first bought it, it would almost never heat up and the fan was very quiet. For the last 2-3 months, it's constantly hot and the fan is always operating!! Sometimes it's so hot it turns itself off. What can I do? Please help..

Hi! I have the same exact problem with the same exact notebook. Where did you blow the compressed air into? Did you open up the notebook or did you just blow it into the side? Its kinda funna actually. When I got this computer everyone complained about it blowing air out the right hand side. I just realized now it's not blowing air at all so it must be clogged. Unfortunately I've been using it since for 4 months in this dusty state! I hope it hasn't damaged too many of my components.
