HP Pavilion dv6 (70-28TX) Air from vent EXTREMELY HOT

Hi! I recently Purchased a new HP Pavilion DV6 70-28TX Entertainment PC. However, I have noticed that after a few hours of gaming (The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim), The air coming from the left side vent of the Notebook is EXTREMELY HOT. I have made sure that the Notebook is getting optimal air-flow (Using flat desk surface, not obstructing vents, etc) I was just wondering if this is normal for this Notebook? This is the only problem I have had with this PC since Purchase on Christmas Day. (Infact I have been thoroughly satisfied with it apart from this)
- Additional Info -
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium (x64 Bit)
CPU/Proccessor: intel Core i5 2450M @ 2.50 GHz (System Default)
RAM: 4.00GB DDR 3
GPU/Graphics Card: nVidia GeForce GT 630M 2GB (Primary) + intel HD Graphics 3000 
- RealTemp heat readings -
Before Playing Skyrim: GPU: High 30's to Low 40's (C) CPU: High 40's to Low 50's (C)
After a few hours of playing Skyrim: GPU: 60 (C) CPU: 70 - 75 (C)
If anyone else has this issue, Please attempt to notifiy someone that may be able to help.
Thanks in Advance,
Mitch

If it is only happening when you are playing Skyrim or similar games, it is pretty normal. While notebooks have improved in their hardware, unless they are specifically designed for gaming, they are going to generate a lot of heat. Playing a game like that makes your computer work harder than anything else you are probably throwing at it. You might try turning the graphic settings down in the game and that might help a little bit.
Here is a document on why and what causes notebooks to generate heat: http://goo.gl/WZTN8

  • HP Pavilion dv6 Windows 10 upgrade from Windows 7 Home Prem; Error code 0xC1900101

    Have been trying to upgrade to Windows 10 (from Windows 7 Home Prem 64 bit). However, the upgrade fails showing an error code 0xC1900101. Tried uninstalling MCafee Antivirus and upgrading, but that fails too. Also, checked and installed all 'other' available system updates and tried. But no luck.During the installation process, the failure occurs when the system has finished copying and is in the process of installing drivers (that is, after the second restart). I have noticed that the 'installing drivers' process was also almost 90% complete. Once the second restart process begins, the system hangs and processor keeps running (and so does the cooling fan, at its highest speed). Earlier, had heating problems which used to hibernate my system during this process, but have fixed that now. And I get this new error message (in the subject above).Guess, the issue occurs when the system is trying to install drivers or when it is trying to upgrade its configuration. Need help!

    I dunno if this is related but I had an error as well during the upgrade on an HP DV5. You can find more information on the error if you analyze the dump file (.dmp) found in the Windows.BT folder right after the upgrade fails. You can use a utility like BlueScreenView. In my case, the upgrade crashed at around 75% of the total process (when configuring settings). Analyzing the dump file showed that the error was caused by a driver named 000.fcl, related to Cyberlink and their DVD player. Turns out this is used in the HP QuickPlay feature. After removing HP Quick Play, the upgrade proceeded as normal. Hope it helps anyone with a similar problem !

  • How do i clean the air vents on my hp pavilion dv6 notebook pc?

    Latelly, the fan on my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC has been noiser than usual and it appears that my notebook becomes quite warm to the touch. The HP Support Assistant running on my notebook PC recommended that I can reduce the heat and fan noise  by cleaning the air vents. How do I do this? Can I do this myself or do I have to have a professional do it?

    Hi Rosie,
    You can clean the vents on your notebook.
    Buy a can of compressed air.  Essentially, you need to gently blow out the vents with the compressed air to clear out the dirt and dust.  You need a can with a small straw like attachment for the nozzle so you can point it directly toward the vents.
    Do take a look at this document first so you know which way to point the air and how to avoid damaging the fan inside the notebook.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-6b47dx gets "Restoration Incomplete" from Recovery Manager.

    I got my son's older HP Laptop, and decided to restore it before using it for myself.  Previously it was working OK.  An HP Pavilion dv6-6b47dx gets "Restoration Incomplete" from the Recovery Manager.  I have tried running the recovery manager from both the HD partion and the DVD media I created.  The HD and Memory pass.  The wireless f12 key is off, and can not be turned back on from the keyboard.  Some previous post have suggested the wireless being off could be a problem.   Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

    Hi
    No that Recovery media won't work in your laptop.
    ISO file can be used to clean install. You'll have to get all the 25 character alphanumeric product activation key printed on the COA label on the back of your laptop to be clearly & legibly readable for activation of ISO after install.

    For additional drivers you can get them here:
    https://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4063&product=5197401&soft...
    AMD chipset driver :
    http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/chipset?os=Windows%207%20-%2064
    Download, save them to a USB and install them from there during/after Win 7 installation.
    You have to first install chipset, restart system - then audio driver-restart, graphic driver- restart, ethernet controller(LAN), network controller(WLAN & Bluetooth), card reader, touchpad , Protect smart hard drive protection driver, quick launch software in order.
    I could see that your model came with Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit) pre installed.
    Here is the ISO file:
    http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/win/X17-58997.iso
    Windows 7 Home Premium x64 English

    Source: http://www.w7forums.com/threads/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-image-downloads.12325/page-2#post-124821
    Download , save it to another PC, then make a bootable DVD/USB by mounting this ISO on to it by using software like Imgburn (choose lowest speed while burning to DVD).
    Imgburn : http://www.imgburn.com/
    This will be your Windows 7 installation disc.

    Had the C partition been split/shrunk to form a new partition previously?
    Does disk management show the HDD as basic or dynamic? (Start>Right-click Computer>Manage>disk management on the left).
    If it has been switched to dynamic (Windows does this automatically when more than 4 partitions are present on the disk), then the F11 recovery partition won't function until it is restored to basic, but I would like to confirm that is the scenario before providing those steps.
    The Disk management shows that my HDD as Dynamic, what should i do then if this is the case and the possible solution to my problem?
    please help me & Thank you for your time,

    If you have more than 4 partitions you will need to delete the extra partition/partitions, then convert the hdd back to Basic.

    no sound from speakers or headphones on my hp pavilion dv6-6c50us.  Speakers are not muted and volume is up.  May have happened after a system update

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the relevant IDT Audio installer on the links below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    IDT Audio Installer - Windows 7.
    IDT Audio Installer - Windows 8.
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.

    Only one of the jacks is for sound ouput. Take a close look and notice that one has an icon of a microphone and the otheris an icon of headphones. You will only get sound output if you connect the headphone (they usually have icons as well) 35mm plug to the proper jack on the notebook. Sound normally switches automatically from the speakers to the headphones when connected unless changes have been made to the Sound settings in Control panel.
    You should try the Microsoft Fixit center for the automated sound fixit utility.
