Lapdesk Cooling Pad - Laptop Overheating Symptoms

So you have taken the first steps towards buying a Lapdesk Cooling Pad. I am guessing that you are reading this article in hope that it will answer all the many questions I am sure you have floating around in your head regarding cooler pads.

I have put as much information together as I can to help you to decide whether or not you should in fact be using one of these units or not. I personally think it is a good idea to have one even if you think your laptop doesn't need one. Your laptop's internal fan may be doing a great job of removing any heat but having an additional external source wouldn't do it any harm.

An average lifespan of a laptop nowadays is considered to be around three years of good working order. After that time you are looking at its gradual wear and tear. In time, your laptop may also need a couple parts added along the way such as a new hard drive. The main cause of laptop breakdowns is overheating. So even with a tiny internal fan this never seems to be enough to keep a laptop cool and extend its lifespan in the process.

Ok, so we realize the importance of having a lapdesk cooling pad but to be sure let's look at some of the symptoms your computer may have to determine whether buying one is the right thing to do.

Below are typical symptoms to look out for if you suspect overheating.

 

Use a Lapdesk Cooling Pad To Prevent Computer Crashes

I am sure we have all had our computers crash on us at some time or another which is pretty normal if it happens once or twice during the computer's lifetime. On the other hand you will need to be aware that if this crashing is fairly regular then it is because there is something seriously wrong and will need to get looked at quickly.

Overheating is a major factor in computer crashes. Many people assume that when their computer crashes, that it is due to a virus, a part failing, or simply due to the Operating System itself. While some of these may be true, it is more often than not, a symptom of overheating.

A crash due to overheating can be characterized by the entire computer system being unresponsive or, "locked up." This generally results in you having to manually restart your computer.  After restarting, the laptop may seem to operate normally for a time, but eventually it suffers the same crash symptom, regardless of which program you are working in.

 

Use a Lapdesk Cooling Pad To Prevent Unexpected Laptop Shutdown

Sudden unexplained shutdown of an operating computer is a warning that something isn't right. There is a high likelihood that the fail safe software in the computer is shutting it down because the computer temperature is getting too high. Computers will automatically shut themselves down before overheating in order to prevent any further damage.

Once a laptop shuts down for thermal event protection, it may refuse to power back up for a fixed period of time usually between five or ten minutes. If itbegins to reboot and then shuts down immediately then this is a sign that the computer has figured out that it is too hot.

Unless you've been working in a hot environment, high temperatures, direct sunlight, etc, you should take a sudden shutdown as a warning to back up your data at the first opportunity and to give the cooling system a serious cleaning.

 

Use a Lapdesk Cooling Pad To Prevent Data Loss and the Blue Screen of Death

Overheating of the CPU, the RAM or the hard drive can cause data corruption and lead to the laptop locking up and shutting down. Your computer may shut down automatically after displaying the Blue Screen of Death, or you may be forced to manually shut it down.  Typically the computer will restart itself and run diagnostics to determine what caused the fatal error.  It will retrieve as much data as possible.

If the Blue Screen of Death appears repeatedly, it can be an indicator of a very serious problem, and you may need to reinstall the operating system which is not a job for anyone unfamiliar with computer maintenance.

 

Use a Cooling Pad To Prevent Sluggish Behavior and a Continuously Working Fan

Has your laptop become rather sluggish when it comes to bringing up folders and files? Maybe it takes ages to open a program that in the past would take half as long. When you are typing do you notice a slight pause in the movement of the cursor? There can be many reasons for this and one of them is overheating.

Is your laptop's internal fan always working? This is also another sign but take into consideration that this also may be a characteristic of the particular model that it simply gets hot in normal operation.

Here are a few questions to ask yourself if you suspect overheating:

 

1.     Is your laptop hot to the touch?

2.     Does the crash occur when you are using a powerful program such as a design or video editing program?

3.     Does the crash occur during game play especially a game that requires a lot of RAM?

4.     Has your laptop been on for many hours without being turned off?

5.     Has your laptop's internal fan been running on full power all the time?

If you answer yes to these questions then chances are the problem is due to overheating.

To help prevent these issues it would be advisable to purchase a Laptop Cooler Pad. For information on the causes of laptop overheating have a read through my Overheating Causes article. If you are happy with all this information then make your way to the Overheating Cures article.
