Help Requested: HP Pavilion Laptop Is Rather Warm

Can anyone offer advice other than "Get a different one next time!"

Well, in short: My laptop gets pretty warm after a while and I'm turning to the Community in hopes that someone has had these problems and has found a good (and hopefully cheap) way of solving it.

Also, are there any practical and inexpensive heat sinks around?

Thanks ahead of time to all who give this post a glance and think about it.

I had a similar problem. My laptop(a Dell Inspiron 1501.) would overheat and turn off afterless than 30 minutes. I got some bottled air sprayed it through the vents and It worked fine. Dust had accumulated in the vents. Hope this helps.
