I have an HP G60-244DX with 3GB ram, AMD Dual Core Ql-62 at 2.00 GHz, Windows 7 32 bit, and nVidia GeForce 8200m G with 1394 MB memory (integrated gfx card). I got the blue screen of death a few weeks back so I went out and bought a laptop cooler.
Anyways I was playing Left 4 Dead and I got the BSOD, sometimes when I play L4D, I'll get a black screen and the laptop shuts off (battery fully charged, power cord hooked in)...haven't had this problem since buying the cooler but the laptop does get pretty hot.
Things that I noticed will bring up the CPU and GPU temps are windows media player and playing a full screen game. I'm using CPUID Monitor.
Under heavy load (i.e playing L4D), the CPU cores get up to 107 degrees ceclius and the GPU core up to 110 degrees celcius (doesn't stay there but the temp runs up that high).
I know laptops aren't made for gaming and I've been reading that AMD processors generally get higher temps. than Intel.
Is there a way to lower the tempreture of CPU and GPU while havin the laptop under heavy load (even with a cooler)?

Clean out your fan grill seriously... You have a lot of dust in your grill cooling. Use a vaccum or air can to blow the dust out.

1)Do you want a Undervolt GPU BIOS Mod?
I can provide it.
2)Undervolt the AMD Processor. -
Could you provide this mod? And any link/guide to undervolting?
Also,
To clean out the fan grill...would I have to take apart the bottom of my laptop or could I just find the fan and blow air into it? -
The new BIOS should make the GPU run at lower voltages therefore less hot.
You can either use HP BIOS update Utility or the utility I provided.
Remember to try flashing using DOS Mode when possible.
(Instruction in the Utility I linked)
As for undervolting CPU you can just google it. -
Undervolting can be achieved with blackshard83's Turion Power Control which you can find on this forum.
Help reducing temp.
