    you got something you wanna say? :mad2: :confused: :mad:

    lol HP claims a BIOS update fully fixed the Overheating, when they really flashed it so it wouldn't shut off and so the fans would kick on sooner

    it'll work for a little while, but you will end up frying the components eventually. i estimate its lifespan in "weeks"

    no, but its getting up there.

    120 C = 250 F

    a normal over baking temperature might be around 175 degrees C = 350 F
