um go to your nearest computer store or somin and get a desktop fan. put it againts your laptop fan so its faciing the same way as your laptop one. then power it up and it will suck out all the hot air

Use your super power called warranty, if you can't use your super power yet, rip it apart and just solder it back together....jesus..

Have no shame in being kindly and gentle, but if the time comes in the time of your life to kill, kill and have no regret. In the time of your life, live so that, in that wonderous time you shall not add to the misery and sorrow of the world, but shall smile to the infinite delight and mystery of it.

well i dont have a warranty because this computer is like 5 years old. also i cant resolder the ground wire because my grandpa brought down his soldering iron when he came to my house and i left it at my house. i dont have any money so i cant buy a computer fan. and now my laptop wont charge because it is too hot.

Ask a parent to get you a soldering iron, or do it old school with a lighter (just be careful, the wire gets hot QUICK)
