You can dry clean the vents with a can of compressed air, but you will need to open up the later to really clean the heatsink. If you don't know how-don't try, bring it to a qualified notebook technician. Service+ are pretty good. Blam |

Blam Yeah I might get around to cleaning it out one day but it is something it has done since day 1, so I'm convinced it's just poor design. I really should try RMA'ing it, but I'm terminally lazy :sleep |
