your fans are weak! what you need to do is take it to a shop and tell them the problems and they will tell you were u can buy a new fan ect. or u can look up the name of your pc and buy the fan yourself and install ect. diy style

Laptops in general have heat problems. There are fan plates you can buy that you set your laptop and it cools it, but any time you access a program that uses alot of memory or CPU power then you will generate heat. Here's some laptop coolers: http://www.google.com/products?q=Laptop+coolers&btnG=Search+Products

Make sure its on a flat, hard surface for ventilation, not a bed or sofa. Answer Mine.? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmAdJMJlNI80eeyaIsqYu63sy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20080806163232AAImDra

The only way to solve this problem is to get a better computer. Most apple laptops get really hot when anything semi demanding happens. They do not have very good fans or ventilation and plus the battery gets really hot when it is not idling on macs. The best choice is to get a new apple or to get a new computer that isn't an apple like HP or Dell.

If it's a Macbook or a Macbook Pro like mine, that is very normal for the casing to get hot. There are two solutions depending on the severity of your problem: 1) Download an application to increase the speed of your fans to regulate the temperature. It will install to your System Preferences and then you can choose a target temperature and the fans with automatically stay within the boundaries you choose. You can download the application here for free: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2006/10/16/modify-adjust-and-control-fan-speed-and-temperature-of-apple-macbook-macbook-pro-and-mac-mini/ If this does not solve your problem then you should move to the second option. 2) If the fan is broken (not necessarily so!), then you need to get it replaced. Take it to your local Apple Store and they can do a diagnostic and give you a quote for getting it fixed. If you have a warranty it will be covered completely. Good luck!
