Is there a way to add extra fans to laptops?
My laptop gets way to hot and if I have it flat on a table for more than an hour it locks up.

I have the original HSF from my G force 2 gts. I think it would be a big help.

I've already cut a hole to give the stock fan more room to get rid of hot air.

"I love my dremmel" it looks real good, I'll send some pix later after I do a few more mods:)
 
The only thig I can think of is to raise it off of the table/ surface, you've got it on, and get a fan to move some air underneath it. Please tell me you're running at stock speed, and haven't OC'ed it, it's locking up, and this is why your asking...
 
I have an older Dell laptop that gets real hot after about 10 min. I just stuck a small CPU fan in it, It helped by about 8 deg. C.
