    Hello.

    This is my first post here :) i hope this is the good place to post my problem.

    I have a new HP Pavilion TX2524CA.
    My first laptop (tablet pc) :) but i have a problem.

    CPU temperature is very high.
    I checked some tutorials, and i changed the power profile to limit the CPU at 40% and now is a little better but still not good enough.

    Current temperature in VISTA in idle is like 53 C but if i do something else... watch a DVD for example is going to 62 C and sometime ... more.

    I saw the undervolting guide but, i snot working for my CPU (Turion X2 RM-70)... is not recognized by RMClock so, i can't do any settings.

    I tried to install linux (Linux Mint) but i wasn't able because after ACPI detected the temperature (67 C) less than one minute after i booted from the live CD, it turned off my laptop.

    I tried to see if i have some settings in BIOS to change the voltage but nothing.

    If i use a different power profile sometime the temperature is 75 C and i only browse web pages.
    When i started the CPU Benchmark (from the undervolting tutorial) the temperature was at one point 92 C.

    Is anything i can do to make it run with lower temperature?
    Or, it's supposed to be like this?

    I have a friend with a Vostro 1500 laptop and in idle he have like 46 C.

    Thank you.
