Laptop Overheating (100°C)

I've got a Samsung NP700Z5B-W01UB, from 2012, with these Specs: /CPU: Intel Core-i7 2670QM /GPU1: Intel HD Graphics 3000 /GPU2: AMD Radeon 7400m /8GB of RAM /Running Windows 10 version 1703, build 15063.483

It frequently gets to 100°C while doing simple things like,watching 720p 30fps Youtube, running Photoshop at all, even if I'm not doing anything, etc. Task manager reports nothing being highly used, and idling around 10% CPU usage, 50% Ram, and 75 degrees.

I've cleaned the insides spotless, and replaced the thermal paste with Arctic Silver, but that's hardly changed anything.

I'm pretty much on my last leg of hope, so any suggestions are appreciated.

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
