You can also use the outer tube of a pen (with the ink and spring removed). STUDENTS who are in a pinch and have very few tools or resources nearby, including compressed air can take advantage of this method. This video shows how to revive almost any laptop that keeps turning itself off, or shuts off while it's being used due to an "overheating condition", without any special tools or taking anything apart. The fix shown in this video deals with a VERY common problem that so many laptops will have. The common cause of "overheating" is often a hidden dust build-up on the fan, heat sink, and/or internal parts!
IMPORTANT NOTE! There is always a possibility that the laptop fan could become "jammed-up" with the dust that is blown back from the processor heat sink while doing this cleaning procedure, so be warned! The odds are very slight, but they ARE there! If this situation occurs, I would (and have in the past) used a vacuum hose from something like a shop vac, or something similar to get the dust off the fan allowing it to spin free. Myself, I would power off the laptop, place the vacuum suction near the "fan inlet" vent to achieve this. The vacuum will dislodge the dust, and the fan will start to spin. DO NOT let the fan spin up at a fast rate of speed as damage to the fan could occur. I have cleaned many laptops, and by using the procedure described here and in this video, I have always had success. I have never had to take a laptop apart because of a dust build-up.
BTW, ANY laptop (AND PC) that moves air "into and out of itself" with a fan, will be susceptible to a dust build-up, eventually leading to an overheating condition.
Symptoms of laptop over-heating may include (but are not limited to)
• A very noisy or racing cooling fan with little air coming out from the laptop.
• If any air is coming out from the laptop, it is quite hot! (It should only be warm)
• No cooling fan sound, because the fan is stuck from dust build-up.
• The bottom of the laptop near the fan area getting very hot.
• Laptop performance slowing down, or the laptop is shutting off completely because the laptop is trying to protect itself from damage caused by an excessive heat build-up.
note;- This video shows a "general method of cleaning" that "I would use" if tools/equipment are not available. It would be helpful to check the owner/user's manual of YOUR device to get clarification on the cleaning procedure of your laptop vents. Every laptop has a different configuration.
PLEASE NOTE. There are times when a laptop will turn off because of a virus or malware, hardware or software problems/conflicts as well. If you believe your Windows laptop is "not" overheating, I would download and run (from microsoft.com/downloads) the "Microsoft malicious software removal tool"(There is a NEW updated one every week.). A FULL scan MUST be done in my opinion. This will take hours, but it is well worth it. If the tool does find problems, make absolutely sure YOU ARE running an antivirus program on your laptop. Many new laptops come with "trial versions" that expire leaving the unsuspecting user vulnerable! Reboot the laptop afterwards, run "Windows update" and install all recommended updates. Reboot the laptop again, then try it afterwards.

0:37 Why this problem happens.
1:46 How I do this (if no compressed air is available).

Ever run a marathon while wearing a coat ? That's your laptop when it's full of dust . Regarding compressed air, yes it will work. But this video was meant for people/students who don't have access to compressed air. For concerns of the fan getting stuck because of chunks of dust becoming lodged in it, I have found alternating back and forth between the exhaust vent and the air intake vents breaks up the dust. This requires a little bit of patience, but I've NEVER had a PROBLEM ( and I've cleaned out a lot of laptops) . If you do have access to compressed air, your efforts will be reduced. Unfortunately compressed air isn't available everywhere, and usually not late at night before an essay is due! AND, laptops were never designed to require dismantling to remove a dust build-up. Google search any laptop manufacturers website and you will see this is true. Here is a link to demonstrate cleaning with compressed air. support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01657439

Usually, by the time you're getting a shutdown from heat, the thermal compound is toast + the fan is backed up with dust. There are also many laptops which do NOT have the vent over the cooling fan, so blowing through a straw is going to do nothing but shift dust further into the chassis, where it will again become lodged in the fan on next power-on. It's always better to disassemble to thoroughly clean the fan area and to replace the thermal compound.

I followed your instructions, {except for the bread thing}, and sure enough, all kinds of dust and dirt came blowing outta the vents on the bottom of the darn thing. Has not shut off and restarted for a couple of days now. I guess that was indeed the problem....dusty dirty cooling vents. So, thank you very much. You may have saved me a grip of dough. Peace!

Thanks. I use a) hoover with a narrow brushed bit. This helps removing chunks of dust from PCs that were never cleaned for 7-15 years. b) a self and pupil made air blower made from broken Dell Otiplex tower cases. Those had big fans with plastic side covers to help you hold it. Just had to find an adapter from a non-working laptop. This blows dust really well on tower PCs. c) compressed air. d) Own lungs for tower PCs. This requires strong lungs and resistance to fatigue/faint. That option is the worst case scenario since you would pick your nose afterwords to free it from dust. Don't forget to close your eyes when blowing and do this in open air only. Now I will use straw. It makes sense since the pressure through a tiny hole in the straw would be way greater than that of mouth. Plus, it would be directed pressure, not scattered.

Every laptop with a fan needs it's intake vents (located underneath) clear from "any" restrictions to airflow. Many people out there have a habit of using their laptops on their beds. This completely blocks airflow! To allow good intake airflow, you must put your laptop on a large flat tray/big book/flat surface/desk/or a laptop cooling pad for the best cooling performance. This method, combined with help from this video, will ensure a good laptop performance (with respect to overheating/staying cool).

If you suspect your laptop is shutting down because of an "overheating condition", the laptop will usually run fine for the first few minutes, then, it will freeze and/or shut down. Also, the top of the laptop near the "warm air exhaust vent" will usually become quite warm to the touch. There are other reasons why a laptop could be shutting down (software/hardware failures), but overheating is BY FAR the most common cause out there. To ensure that overheating is not the cause, please verify that the following is true. 1:- Is your laptop fan ever "loud" or have a "racing sound", especially before the laptop shuts off? 2; - Is your fan blowing air at all just before the laptop shuts down? If it isn't the fan could be stuck with dust, or it could be defective. 3; - When the fan is blowing air, do you feel lots of WARM air, or very little HOT air coming out of the exhaust vent? (as airflow slows down and the temperatures rise, the fan will race, and the output air will become quite HOT!) The fan should usually NEVER race, unless the laptop itself is working very hard at processing or gaming. Good luck!

***** excessively hot temperatures are a sure sign of a lack of airflow. Either a fan is unable to move air because it is full of dust or it's defective (unable to spin up to speed), an inlet vent or the discharge vent is plugged (on the "inside" of the heat sink). I would be sure to put most of my effort into blowing the air "backwards" through that warm air discharge vent, as in most cases it gets totally plugged with dust on the inside. Let us know how you make out.

I'm asked the SAME question by so many people, "Will this method work on my particular model laptop?" The answer to everyone is... "if your laptop pulls air in, and expels air out using its fan, then yes this method I would definitely do to eliminate the possibility of overheating due to a dust build-up". Laptops need to breathe. Try putting a heavy coat on and running around a track. You'll overheat too! Some people have "comments to their replies" disabled, so I'm unable to respond to them. This is the only way I can answer their question (in this paragraph).

You said you are blowing into the fan? That is important too, but make sure that you are especially paying attention to the warm air "exhaust vent". It is behind the fins inside that vent where the majority of the dust usually builds up!

A vacuum will work for all the other vents EXCEPT the warm air discharge vent at the CPU heat sink. Putting a vacuum to the warm air discharge vent is like trying to pull dust directly through a filter. Not possible. It must be blown backwards. The air must be blown in the "opposite direction" . Also, vacuums are a big source of static electricity which may damage electronic components, so be careful!.

Virus removal can be VERY difficult! Just saying.. As a basic approach, try to run "system restore" back to a time before this weird stuff started happening. If successful, immediately run a FULL scan using the Microsoft Malicious software removal tool (Microsoft.com/downloads). This will take hours! Then I would reset Internet Explorer settings, as well as other browser settings. Do full windows updates, then update Adobe reader and flash, and update Java. You need to close all the vulnerable areas to keep the virus contained. I've had good luck using Malwarebytes, spybot s & d 1.6. 2 from www.safer-networking.org/dl/ just keep hammering away with the scans until no more viruses are found....OR....restore your laptop with a previously backed up image.

If you have any doubts, always check with the manufacturer of your laptop to verify where your "exhaust vent/warm air discharge vent" is. Once you do know, this is the only method I can suggest for safely/effectively dislodging a build-up of dust from the "inside" of the CPU heat sink and fan (other than using compressed air, or physically taking your laptop apart for service). One must always use caution "if" using compressed air, as the possibility of causing damage to components increases as the air pressures increase. This method of blowing air into the exhaust vent dislodges the dust build-up by driving it in the opposite direction in which it was deposited. Good luck!

hey can you help me. I'm not exactly sure what's wrong with my laptop but it started out randomly shutting off and whenever I turned it on it glitched out and it wouldn't get me to the sign in page unless I waited like an hour. It actually got a little bit better for some reason and I got to log in but now the sound is completely turned off and it's still really glitchy and just today now Sunday internet signal turned off even though it's working in the rest of the appliances in the house. I can't seem to find out what's going on and I tried your Technique but it didn't work. Please help

My first step would be to start the laptop in safe mode. This will at least let you run diagnostic software to see what's happening. There is a possibility a virus or malware has affected your laptop. See if you can start in safe mode first and go from there.. .

EVERYONE please read! (3 tips) 1, EVERY LAPTOP that has a cooling fan MUST be able to stay cool by pushing an "airflow" with its fan past internal cooling fins and components. A severe dust build-up WILL block this effect. It's just like YOU putting on a winter coat in the hot weather and working as hard as you can. You won't be able to do it for long without overheating. 2, a can of compressed air would be just fine to use for laptops (if available), but this video shows an effective method for people WHO DON'T HAVE ACCESS to compressed air, possibly students late at night. 3, Laptops were never designed to require dismantling to remove a dust build-up. Google search any laptop manufacturers website and you will see this is true! Here is a link to demonstrate cleaning with compressed air. support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01657439

I don't have a lot of experience in fixing laptops, but if you have any advice I'd appreciate it! The computer can literally sit with nothing open and start to overheat, and blow hot air through the fan, and be very loud.

I can't believe it actually works. I had two forced shutdowns and didn't know what to do. Noted that my laptop was overheating as hell, the air coming out from the fan (I'm talking about a vaio i3 laptop) was hot, the keyboard was burning and there always were that brrrrrrrrr sound even when idle. Take my laptop upside down, did what is in this video and magically there is not that awful sound, and the laptop is cooler. I recommend to monitor cpu's temperatures. Didn't do that before but I guess one learns from experience.
