GL552VW SEVERELY overheating when closed

[concorde77]

So for the past week, I've been having major issues with my Laptop. For some reason whenever I pull it out of my backpack, the laptop has been getting extremely hot (Even though the lid is closed and it isn't running any programs). It has gotten so bad that I'm even starting to smell MELTING PLASTIC when I open it. Does anyone know how I could fix this?!

When you put it in a laptop backpack or bag you should ALWAYS make sure to shutdown or at the very least put it in Sleep mode. Putting the unit in a bag prevents proper circulating of air.

Is there anyone that left palm area not overheating in idle ???? Please tell us what driver using...


What I fond lately... If you install fresh copy of latest windows 10 you get intel and nvidia graphics automatically installed. Then instead of using intel HD GPU, in idle is used NVIDIA GPU.
