This hp entertainment pc, model dv6000 came in with the fan running constantly. The dv2000, dv6000, and dv9000 all have this overheating problem. The laptop gets very hot and the fan doesn't go off and is very loud and annoying.
The heat can also cause the video card on the motherboard to fail as well as motherboard failure.
For $65 we completely take the dv6000 apart and blow the fan out. Usually people don't blow it out on a regular basis and a lot of dust and build can occur.
We also apply Arctic Silver 5 thermal paste to the CPU and GPU. This will allow for a 10-15 degree drop in temps on top of the fan cleaning.
After the fans have been blown out and thermal paste applied the fan barely makes a sound! Had this service not been performed it was a matter of time before the laptop would need a motherboard replacement.
