    Has someone else have the same issue with the ENVY 15-3200 that I have? When playing a game or just doing anything and holding the laptop at a 45 degree angle or so, the fans start working really loud and the game freezes. Putting the laptop level again will make them running normally after 20-30 seconds again. Very strange. Could it be a loose connection or bad heating pipe issue?

    Thanks! Already did some research on it, turned off the Coolsense and the issue is now gone. Not sure if Coolsense is needed anyway if it causes programs to crash and the fans go crazy, may just uninstall it completely.
