Please do not have ''Buy a new laptop'', ''Use more lesser'' or ''Use a fan to cool it'' solution.

Laptop Battery Performance and Heat Loss? I have a HP Pavilion dv2000. It gets uncomfortably hot when I'm running it from AC power.

My games lag on battery, as opposed to AC. Normal? I've heard the stories about Sony's batteries catching fire, and obviously a hot computer is concern.

I have laptop heat and shut off issues? ok... I have a HP Pavilion zv5000 laptop. Biggest issue is power loss randomly and shutting down. The bottom around where the 2 fans are will sometimes get frying pan hot almost... but the fans are working. Also I have noticed that the power adapter/charger will get just as hot too. But with the charger plugged in to the wall but laptop not powered on it is cool as a cucumber... why is that? Mainly what I want to know is... any opinions from people with experiance in this area on what could be the cause here would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! actually... this laptop is being used without a battery. Just the power charger adapter being plugged in. the laptop stays on a desk with clearances all around for breathing and underneath is about an 1/8" clearance off the desk no visible dust build up is seen but I just blew it out and a lil bit of dust came out but hardly enough to cuss a cat over. Could my problem be the power adapter/charger getting so hot? I don't have the battery for this laptop. I got this used from a friend and worked fine for the past few months until now.
