Hi

I have a Sony Vaio Laptop (PCG-FR415M) which quite often shuts dow
after an hour or so useage. I'm assuming this is due to overheatin
because it always feels very hot and the shutting down occurs mor
frequently on hotter days. The fan is running OK and always start
up within a few moments of booting up from cold after which it seem
to run at full speed all the time the laptop is in use. I hav
checked the air vents are clear and have found that liftting th
laptop slightly off the surface helps a bit because the fan i
underneath. However it still sometimes shuts down

Any ideas

Many thanks... :crybaby
