Hello,

I have a windows 7 Noteboook laptop

I use Coretemp to monitor my laptop's temp; this is a new laptop got back in august because my old laptop's fan broke and that temp was very high.Now I'm a bit concerned about this one.

Machine name: SPRINGFAIRY
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1 (7601.win7sp1_gdr.110408-1631)
Language: English (Regional Setting: English)
System Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard
System Model: HP 2000 Notebook PC
BIOS: InsydeH2O Version CCB.03.61.11F.43

TJMAX: 115 degrees C

Idle Temp: Between 39- 47 degrees C
Overload: Betwen 47-51 degrees C

It never goes above 51.I know that my fans are bit dusty; which could be why its a bit high; I use a cooling pad and it brings it down a bit. But are these safe? I dont know much about temps and all that.
 
Seems good to me. Laptops will naturally run a bit hotter because of poorer heat dissipation, but yours seems fine.
 
Generally with modern laptops, you don't need to be concerned unless you are hitting 80-90C plus. My 2009 13" Macbook Pro hits 80C easily under full load. I've seen it 101C once when the fan hadn't revved up yet (the auto fan control is a bit slow to react).
