    Hey asus forums i was wondering if anyone has experience with the M50vm. This was my first Asus laptop. There isn't much wrong with it except its overheating problem. I gave it to my mom when i bought my G73jh. The problem is this computer gets extremely Hot so she has trouble letting sit on her lap. I was wondering and the best thing i could come up with is repasting the Cpu and Gpu. I got it open and it doesn't look that complex. Does anyone know what do unscrew to get the heatsink off the Cpu and Gpu? Can anyone recommend a paste? Just link it from Newegg if possible.

    Thanks Before hand
