Look like it. You can try putting new thermal paste also, if you haven't done it in a long while.

cheers ...

You need to take the notebook apart, remove the heatsink. The thermal paste is between the heatsink and the CPU. HP should have the service guide as how to get to it. It's quite simple really, just needing lots of patience. It's just a long shot - no guarantee that it would help with a bad board.

cheers ...

Motherboard is gone, probably from a bad GPU. Brave enough to go with a board baking? You have nothing to lose.

We have lots of tips and guides in bake / baking here in the forum, just search for the keywords.

cheers ...

this is the classic DV2000/DV6000/DV9000 Manufacture defect you are probably going to have to replace the board.
