    Computer has been working fine for along time, but over the past 2 months it's starting to get extremely hot - not just the bottom, but even through the kb.

    Usage hasn't changed, as far as I can tell.

    Vista home premium, sp2
    Aspire 4730Z
    pentium T3200 (2GHz)
    2 Gb of ram.

    Help!

    Fluff, dust and lint gets sucked in and blocks the cooling system.
    Dissassemble the laptop, clean the airways and the fans, reassemble, and bob's your uncle.
