I Have a Hewlett Packard Zt1131 laptop. It overheats something chronic. In fact
at times you cannot even bear your hand on the underside. This has caused
problems with the memory module which is housed on the underside. When the
Laptop gets hot I get intemittent memory failures. The laptop works fine with
only one memory module (the one located under the keyboard). I tried swapping
them and it's always the bottom one which fails when the laptop overheats.

P.s. the laptop still overheats with the memory module removed.

Can anyone shed any light on the problem.

I' don't know what could be generating the heat as the processor is located way
up in the right hand corner which remains quite cool.

Ant help appreciated.

T.I.A.

It could be the Harddisk possibly overheating at a guess, is there a way you
could locate where the HDD is in relation to the overheating?
