Make sure the laptop is sitting on something that absorbs or conducts heat. (Either that or use the big fan that somebody else suggested.) A heavy steel or marble table is good. A sofa or a plastic or wooden worktop is not. I believe you can actually buy stone slabs for this purpose. -- Robert Persson "Don't use nuclear weapons to troubleshoot faults."
