    Hi all...! Yes, my Qosmio F55-Q5021 is suffering from overheating. When I play games that requires lots of (how should I say this?) Graphical Specs, It'll just go off at some point and have lower-right side of you keyboard very hot. I did some google-ing and found out that I would need to open it up and do some cleaning.


    Reason for this post is to find a guide for disassembly of this laptop or maybe someone could suggest me some other ways of fixing it.
