HP 3130sa D90 overheat problem

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Hi Ive had this DV6 3130sa laptop some time now and I get a D90 overheat shutsown all the time at least 6 times a day now. Its been seen to by HP under warranty and they said there is no fauIts. Now its out of warranty so I cant get them to do it. I have cleaned the heatsink and fan and reseated the heatpipes on the GPU and CPU at least 10 times in the last 3 months with Arctic 5 thermal paste. I bought a new cpu which is an i5 460m and a new heatpipe heatsink and fan. I still get this D90 shutdown. I installed the latest BIOS F29 and this made no difference. So I installed a temp track software and it only gets to 70*C at the most before it D90 shuts down. Way below TJ temp. The fan is working and there is next to no heat felt inder the laptop ever. Can anyone please advise what else it could be before I shell ou good money for another motherboard as I love this laptop and I want to get it working perfectly.

I have also reset to factory and it still does the same D90 overheat shutdown with low temps.

I have also noted that if I remove all power inc battery and press the power button in for 20 seconds and then put all power back on it will reboot like nothing has happened. The system idles at between 29* and 35* too.



Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit



Please help me with this

Regards Kenny

Thanks for the reply . Yes the same result it will run fine for a few mins or even a few hours but then I get the same mesage after it shuts down and wont reboot unless I do the power drain and then it starts right back up no problem. But it hasnt got hot I have CPU Hardware monitor that logs temps and it never goes over 70 degrees C way off TJ max. Iw will do the D90 overheat shutdown even at idle temps too. I replaced the heatpipes and CPU and changed many Bios's but it still does this.

Try this next: use one module of ram, one at a time and with different slot

Would ram cause an overheat issue? I only have 1 4GB stick in there I guess I can try to find another and see what happens thanks.

Give that a shot. Move the ram also to the other slot. Also try to run the comp in Safe Mode also,

cheers ...
