I have a 7 year old laptop (an Averatec 3120V from 2003) that I plan on replacing in 6 months. The fan is completely fried, and the laptop overheats within 20-30 minutes usually. How effective are laptop cooling pads? I just need to keep the laptop at a somewhat safe temperature for a period of no more than 90 minutes, and I'm only going to be using it for 6 more months
(I've been using ice packs as a do-it-quick solution so far, which has been working but has the downside of making the laptop wobbly, and occasionally wet)
