The answer was changing the thermal paste. I eventually sold that laptop though but after getting a newer, better one that had cooling issues and a much more powerful CPU (i5 11400H) and changed it's thermal paste with tf 7 thermal paste, it dropped from the similar 70-90°C to 70-60°C under load...
When I searched Google, I found a link to an article in which they explained that I could downgrade and flash my BIOS to when Dell allowed undervolting on my CPU.
I also found this reddit post which was probably talking about the same thing. To be honest, I don't really understand it all.
And...
Unfortunately for me, i cannot change my thermal paste for now because i cant afford to ship some to my home country, and there is no "professional" (who actually knows what they are doing) anywhere around me. Though i did get a bios update.
Hey, it's been a while. I wasnt able to fully recover all the files as some of them were damaged, but i was wandering if there is anyway to fix the drive like formatting it or something. Once i plugged the hard drive into my other laptop and opened disk management, it showed the hdd was raw...
So a year ago, I bought a Dell Latitude 7390. It has an i7 8650u, 16 gigs of RAM, and a 256 GB SSD. I bought the laptop because of it's specs. However, I didn't realise the laptop had a severe case of poor cooling. When I play Rblox and other games, I can't even play above two graphic bars or...
Real explanation:
When I play game (Rblox and such), I can't play above two Graphics, and even then, I thermal throttle in like 10 minutes and reach temps of 80–90 degrees. The turbo mode does not help, as my laptop thermal throttles in less than 5 minutes with temperatures just as high. The...
since spam filter keeps tweakin, i'll use bad english
Laptop has bad cooling
play low end games at 20-30 fps
non turbo temperatures without external cooling 70-80 then thermal throttle
turbo temperatures without cooling in 3min reach 90degrees and Prochot and 0.4ghz thermal throttle till...
Thank you so much, you have been so patient and helpful with this. Do i mark as solution or wait till i'm able to recover the files, report on progress, and then mark as solution? (Sorry, im pretty new.)
Well, the other hard drive( around 750 GB in total) is already inside another laptop with a Windows 8.1 install. I don't think the stuff on the dying hard drive is up to 700 GB. At the very least, I intend to reset my current Windows 10 laptop and pick out the essential things I need.
That...
Is there anything I can do to prevent the hard drive from dying? Will I be able to get all my files back? I won't be able to Clone the HDD onto another one, but I have a second laptop. Can I recover my files from the hard drive to the other laptop's HDD?
I do not know how to do the smart report with Crystal Disk Info. However, this is what the homepage looks like:
However, DMDE did let me into the hard drive and let me see the contents of the hard drive; they were accessible on there. However, since I am out of space, I could not recover...
So, I gave my hard drive to a friend because they needed the movies on it. When i got it back, i realized it did not work. Plugging it into all my ports plus a usb hub made no difference. It would show the led indicator blink like 5 times, and just stay on. Checking task manager, i saw that...
