    Hi, I'm having cooling problems with my laptop here. Occasionally after a long day of gaming my laptop just goes to a black screen and shuts down. I try to keep the vents and fan clean with compressed air, but I know it isn't getting everything clean. I've tried to open it up to manually clean the fans... but I can't seem to find it. :confused: I looked at the dissembling guide on here, but it seemed like to complex of a procedure just to get to the fan.

    Would rather not ship it back to factory just to have them wipe out some dust when I could do it for free. Any advice?

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately, the only real way to do it is a full disassembly down to the motherboard level.
