I had installed the latest version of it (14.12 Omega) with the hope that the problem would be fixed on it but the problem persisted. Then I realized that problem could be with the Catalyst packages. I have noticed some improvement but eventually the laptop would overheat and shutdown.

Then I bought a license for Driver Booster which is a software that I used with success in the past on previous machines and it did find different updates (some even newer versions than what the HP software would install).

So I tried again to uninstall all drivers and it's registers with DDU and update them again to the very last update possible with HP Support Assistant. You see that all the time with GPU's updates. It's nor uncommon to find different hardware to work erratically after an update. I had a strong feeling that this problem was related to bad drivers. And second, handicapping my processor stopped worked at some point and I got back the nasty shutdowns due to overheating again. First and most important is: I have paid for a gaming laptop and should be able to use it in it's full potential and not having to sacrifice performance in order to not burn my legs, hands or prevent a shutdown due to overheating (I would like to share that my temperature easily would go up to 130✬!!!! And you don't need to be a genius to know that is ridiculously high even being capable to cause injury to the user!!!! Shame on you HP!). I have to say that I had some joy doing that for a while but there a couple issues with that. Well I didn't want to dismantle my whole laptop to check that cause some people did do that and helped very little with the problem.Īnother popular solution was to go to the energy management options and prevent the A10 to be used at 100% of it's capacity.

Some people even said that the problem was the thermal compound that was applied wrongly. I not a newbie to computer hardware and obviously I checked (like everyone else) the vents, use some vacuum to take any dust, etc etc. I have bought this laptop 2 years ago and when I started to notice the constant shutdown due to overheating (system temperature 90D error), my warranty was already gone and I could only rely on HP customer service (which didn't help me at all) and the large community that are dealing with this same problem everyday for a long time now. It's 2015 and I believe it isn't news that this Envy series (plus some Pavilions from the same time) have ridiculous issues regarding overheating while gaming and some times even just by watching a Youtube video or browsing.
