A couple other cases: > [@Hot and unable to turn off/on](http://community.frame.work/t/hot-and-unable-to-turn-off-on/5927): > > I set my laptop down on a carpeted floor (maybe a bad idea) with the lid closed. When I opened the lid again it was extremely hot. The blue light was flashing slowly, but pressing would not turn on the laptop. I left it sit on a table, upside down for a while but it remained really hot. I tried to force it to shutdown by holding the power button for 5-10s and it wouldn’t shut down. After letting it sit for 30m I was able to turn it on. The fan immediately turned on full blast, and it coole… > [@Closed lid, plugged into charger, and tossed onto bed. Came back to fan screaming and computer super hot](http://community.frame.work/t/closed-lid-plugged-into-charger-and-tossed-onto-bed-came-back-to-fan-screaming-and-computer-super-hot/11328): > > I just got the laptop today. I have windows 10 installed. I closed the lid and plugged it in and tossed it on the bed. I came back an hour later and the fan was spinning extremely fast and since the vent was facing the bed covers, it couldn’t breathe. How do i just make it sleep/hibernate and not try to cool itself down? Or am i missing something.
