1. Call the maker. In warranty you want to SQUAWK as soon as troubles begin rather than see if you can fix it.

2. Laptops, especially the gamer variety need a yearly cleaning. For example read http://forums.cnet.com/5208-19681_102-0.html?messageID=3196452&tag=forums06;posts#3196452

I think about 98% of laptop owners think the laptops need no maintenance.
