Intel core i7 Q720 running at a temperature of 85-99 degrees.

Hello there. I bought myself a hp pavilion dv7-4085eb in september.
When I bought it I had problems with drivers, contacted HP support but couldn't fix the problem so I bought a clean windows installation and installed that on my laptop. After doing this I had no more driver problems.
From the start I noticed that the laptop was running very hot but now I am getting quite concerned.
I heard from many people that having a core temperature between 85-99 degrees is not good for the health of the laptop and won't last long. I measured the temperature with coretemp. So far my laptop has shut down 3 times because it was getting to hot.
While I am on my laptop I make sure it is in a ~20 degree so the vents can work properly.
The temperatures:
- Laptop startup (after 5 min): 55-65 degrees (idle)
- Laptop while playing game: 95-99 degrees (idle)
- Laptop after playing game: 75 degrees (idle)
- Laptop while watching movies: 80 degrees (idle)
Does anyone else have the similar temperatures or? Should I send it up or?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I have a DV7-4010TX.
On idle (browsing,email, etc..) I have 50 degrees C
I try playing Baldur's Gate 2, and it jumps up to 80 degress C according to CoreTemp, with only 50% load on one core... other 3 cores are at 0% (or so) and 72 degressC.. And the fan is pumping hot air out like a hair dryer... expensive hair dryer....
I had the HP warranty service technician look at it today, and all they did was replace the heat sink/fan (for the second time now)... I don't think they understand that the problem is not in the EXTRACTION of heat, but in the GENERATION of heat.. Basic physics...
I keep telling them the heat sink & fan are working fine..and they should focus on the heat GENERATION.. but I seem to be speaking ancient french or something.. as they insist on replacing the fan & heat sink !!!
By the way, Baldur's Gate 2 works fine on my OLD DELL single core laptop.... I am nit happy with this HP.. I wish I had bought another brand now...
And yet they keep saying the DV7 does not have any "offocial" heat problem, which may be true, and I may have a dud.. but it is frustrating that this is happening !!!! will keep you posted with my dealings with HP Warranty service.
Not a happy customer...

Have downloaded and re-installed Firefox, don’t think this has helped in any way, HELP please?!? Thanks, george.

That would at least partially explain it.
These MacBook Pros drew more power than the power brick could readily supply, and so would only run at top speed when the power brick was supplemented by the battery.
Though the applicable tech note has been removed, it stated:
"If the battery is removed from a MacBook or MacBook Pro, the computer will automatically reduce the processor speed. This prevents the computer from shutting down if it demands more power than the A/C adapter alone can provide."

Yes this machine will run 10.6 with no problem
Sadly it will not be able to run 10.7 in the future though.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
Xserve (Early 2009)
If you cannot run Mavericks you can purchase the code to use to download Lion from the App Store (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), by calling Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775.

2008 MacBook 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running like a dying lion

November 23, 2013 - I am trying to hold my MacBook running 7.5.8 together. But it seems like I'm having big internet browser delay as well as dogged performance. I've now stopped upgrading for the last two OSX updates. Why is my maching really it seems like the last month that the performance has slowed to a crawl. Is it just that my machine has outlived its operational life? Any feedback would be helpful!.

Can I upgrade my iMac intel core duo to run lion

I have an iMac 17" that works great is in great shape, just had a 500 gb hard drive installed...realized that I could not install the new Lion because I had an intel core duo processor and not an intel core 2 duo processor. I don't have the money to buy a new iMac...is there anyway to upgrade the processor?

Cannot be upgraded.
Although there are those that are crazy enough to try anything.

Can MacBook Pro Intel core i7 (2012) run OS10.6.8

I just purchsed a refurbished MacBook Pro thinking it would use OSX 10.6.8. This is because most of the software I have may not run on Lion. It just hit me that this computer was manufactured in June 2012 so probably will come with Lion installed. Does anyone know if it will run OS 10.6.8? It is a
15.4-inch MacBook Pro 2.7GHz Quad-core Intel i7. Not the end of the world if it comes with Lion, but a lot less expensive if I don't have to update all the software.
OR can you tell me how to find this out (who to contact.)
Thanks

Check it out here:
Are my applications compatible?
See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
You will find that any older software that requires Rosetta to run with Snow Leopard will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion. If it's just a matter of minor incompatibilities, then the developers have probably already produced newer versions. Just check them out.
This I can guarantee, however, is that you cannot run Snow Leopard on that model.

IMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Running SUPER Slow! Help!

Below are the specs for my iMac. Typically, my wife and I will each have a Chrome browser open with a few tabs. iPhoto and iTunes are usually open and we have CrashPlan backing things up behind the scenes. Other than that, we'll occasionally open Adobe for PDFs, or a random app here or there for basic home stuff, but we aren't talking about rocket science here... just your basic at home uses. We have have about 20K pictures in iPhoto, but the computer has 2/3 of its 1 TB empty, so I know we have storage. The computer is painfully slow. Like "don't try switching to iPhoto when you are using Chrome" slow.
When things get really bad, if we restart the computer we get some temporary relief and it will run reasonably well for an hour or so, then things slow down to a crawl again. Here are some screen shots, can anyone spot a culprit?

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

What is the latest version of Firefox compatible with a MacBook Pro with 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running OSX 10.5.8?

I keep getting told my browser needs updating and it doesn't work right on some websites. I have had unhappy experiences in the past trying to update Apple OS and Firefox due to compatibility issues. I suppose I could switch to Safari but I have been using Firefox for many years and would prefer to stick with what I know.

Firefox 16.0.2 was the last to work on the old Mac OSX 10.5.x as Firefox 17.0 to current has required OSX 10.6+
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/16.0/system-requirements/
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/17.0/system-requirements/

Firefox 3.6.16 freezes or stalls all videos (YouTube, MSN, All!) on my Imac--Intel Core 2 Duo running OS 10.4.11

Videos hang or freeze, then start again further ahead in the video.
I checked add-ons and they seem to be up to date.
???

Hard drive was the culprit!!! Had 3 bad sectors...diagnosed and fixed by the Apple Genius's!

I have an iMac 24" EMC 2111 intel core 2 duo running OX lion and would like to set up a first gen Apple wireless keyboard. It has been discovered but won't let me type the code. What am I doing wrong?

I cant set up my older wireless keyboard with my iMac. The Apple site shows this keyboard model as needing a USB keyboard and mouse for initial set up, but I dont know how to do that. Blue tooth finds the keyboard, yet when I need to type the passcode, nothing happens. the keys wont function. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

P35 Platinum/Q6600 Intel Core runs HOT! (I think)

Hi,
I Just bought and assembled:
2GB Corsair DDR2 pc6400/800mhz
700x Toughpower Thermaltake 700w PSU
MSI P-35 Platinum MainBoard / Intel Chipset
Intel CoreDuo2 Quad Q6600 CPU (2.4)
Nvidia 8600GT 512MB / DDR2 GPU (Pci-ex16)
CM 690 Coolermaster Mid ATX Chassis (Case)
WINXP (Service Pack2)
Three120mm case fans (I think they are only connected to the PSU)
1)Raptor WD SataII 74 GB for apps and OS Hard drive
2) Western Digital SataII 500 GB Internal hard Drive for Storage
OK.
Now after putting everything together and it seemingly is working well, does anyone have any idea what the average Intel Core Duo2 Quad (Q6600) 2.4CPU Temperature should be running at? I have a MSI (Microstar P-35 Platinum Mobo) that came with DualCoreCenter Utility to monitor temp, system temps and
settings in the Bios.
I went to the BIOS and noticed that the CPU Temp was running at 61 c / 141 f ! That sounds pretty high to me. The System Temp was 29 0 / 84 f.
The Fan speed was1775 RPMS. Which one? It did not say,but I do have a front case 120mm,and a rear 120mm fan, and a 120mm side case fan, ad they are working.
In Bios, the System Fan #3 and #4 is Disabled. Could that be that my friend hooked up the Fans directly to the Power supply and not split them to the mainboard?
Is there website on Normal operating temperatures for the INTEL Processors?
If anyone has the MSI P-35 Platinum Mainboard, and has installed the DuoCoreCenter utility, How do you change the temp settings for the Fans and the CPU? I've seen the DOT Utility to change the OC settings,but I do not want to OC.
I installed the DualCoreCenter Temp monitoring software from the P-35 MSI (Micro-Star) Mobo Utility Disc and I also downloaded yet another software >CORETEMP (v0.96) software to see what B gwan'on, and it shows that all four Cores are listed,
frequency is 2402.43 MHZ,
Platform is LGA 775,
VID is 1.2375v
and the following temps:
Tj.Max - 212 F 100C
CORE #O 142 F / 60C
CORE #1 138 F / 59C
CORE #2 126 F / 52C
CORE #3 124 F / 51C
INTEL CoreDuo2 Q6600 2.4 Kentsfield Quad The Stock Q6600 CPU heatsink Fan that came with the CPU only had three strips of adhesive on the bottom. I'm sure when I seated the CPU/HSF they were tight! Can I still try to tightned the posts without removing the HSF? or get a better Fan along with that ArdticSilver 5 Thermal paste?
Thanks again!

Hi you all! :ohyeah:
OK.
Now after putting everything together and it seemingly is working well, does anyone have any idea what the average Intel Core Duo2 Quad (Q6600) 2.4CPU / Revision G0 / I have a MSI (Microstar P-35 Platinum Mobo) that came with DualCoreCenter Utility to monitor temp, fans,GPU, system temps.
I went to the BIOS and noticed that the CPU Temp was running at 61 c / 141 f !That sounds pretty high to me. The System Temp was 29 0 / 84 f. The TjMAX is @ 212F.
The Fan speed was 1775 RPMS. I do have a front case 80mm,and a rear 120mm fan, and a 120mm side case fan, ad they are working.
Is there website on Normal operating temperatures for the INTEL Processors? I went there but they pretty much say that's up to each individual, it's the liability I guess.
If anyone has the MSI P-35 Platinum Mainboard, and has installed the DuoCoreCenter utility, Do you pretty much set at default? I am not going to overclock.
I installed the DualCoreCenter Temp monitoring software from the MSI (Micro-Star) Mobo Utility Disc and I also downloaded CORETEMP (v0.96) software to see if it's mirrored or not.
frequency is 2402.43 MHZ,
Platform is LGA 775,
VID is 1.2375v
and the following temps:
Tj.Max - 212 F100C
CORE #O 142 F / 60C
CORE #1 138 F / 59C
CORE #2 126 F / 52C
CORE #3 124 F / 51C
INTEL CoreDuo2 Q6600 2.4 Kentsfield Quad
A few peeps told me that check to see if the Stock Intel Fan is seated..That the HSF or the CPU is not seated correctly and to remove and clean 91% alchol and apply Artic Silver5 thermal paster.
I looked at the leg pins and AhHa! One was loose, I tightened it up and now it's a few degrees cooler. Do I want to go with the coolest I can get so long as it does not go past the 212F MAX?
I let the beast cool overnight and upon startup, I checked the Coretemp and it read the following >
CORE # 0 > 136 F
CORE # 1 > 133 F
CORE # 2 > 120 F
CORE # 3 > 120 F
Well, I could remove the piece of crap Intel HSF,clean off the contacts,re-apply the thermal compound and see if that works...OR remove (throw away) and replace with a new 3rd party HSF that sits on top of the board like the Intel does, OR remove the MoBo to install the HSF brackets,and find a heavy duty HSF, the paste,and put together.
I wish there would be a dependable,not too heavy, and not real expensive HSF I could place on top w/o removing the Mobo...lots of cabling,wires, cards,etc. to deal with.:ohmy:
Can anyone tell me what the highest temp possible to run without causing damage to the CPU, and the GPU?
Does anyone feel these are still too high of temps? Do I DISABLE the Smart fan? Can I do anything to chnage the temp in the DUALCORE CENTER?
Thanks again!
