HP ENVY 14 (First Gen) Overheats on Wake from Sleep *or does it?*

Forum Windows 7 : Drivers HP ENVY 14 (First Gen) Overheats on Wake from Sleep *or does it?*

Hi there,

When waking up my computer from sleep, it more often then not restarts and displays the BIOS message that the hardware reached 90 degrees and the computer shut off to prevent overheating.

The fact that is does not happen every single time, leads me to believe that something is in fact overheating the instant I try to wake from sleep on certain occasions.

This problem has been happening since I got the machine. Just installed a new SSD and did a fresh Windows install but this is still happening.

Any ideas? Any other info I can provide?

More likely the fan isn't kicking in and could be a faulty temp sensor or abug in the bios or any and all.

Time to give HP a ring and RMA/repair.
