May not be your problem, but my son was usung a Gateway laptop that got extremely hot. Not only hot on the bottom but so hot that the power button would be hot to the touch. When trying to restart it, it would not boot unless I opened it up and stood it on end "bookstyle" to cool. After removing all the spyware, it began to run much cooler and no longer had this problem. The spyware (and there was an assload) apparently put such a strain on the cpu that it was as useful as a football bat. Just a thought...
