[gui-talk] Cooling software solution for laptops

[Ted Shelly]

You will probably have more success if you open up the computer and blow out
the dust very thoroughly with a can of air.  The only thing that software
could do to help would be to slow down the CPU, which could help the heating
but could also hurt performance.

Subject: [gui-talk] Cooling software solution for laptops

Hello all,

My Dell XP Studio heats up to unusually high temperatures these days within 
a few minutes of turning it on, and the fan makes a continuous loud hissing 
noise thereafter. Before the machine crashes permanently, I would like to 
install a cooling software and check if that solves the problem.

I googled for a cooling software solution and found several recommendations.

However, I do not want to end up installing the wrong software. Has anyone 
here tried cooling software? If yes, which one would you recommend?

Thanks.
Geetha
