    Question Laptop overheating (while not at all on Windows 8)

    Hello,

    I hate to say that, but my laptop almost doesn't heat up at all when I'm using Windows 8. While with Kubuntu (or even lighter Linux distros), it does heat up A LOT. Even with an external computer fan, it is still too hot. I read somewhere that it could be a drivers problem. I am no professional at all.

    I tried tlp (several months ago) but I saw no changes at all.

    I'm using an HP ENVY dv6.

    Anyone knows an efficient way to reduce overheating?

    Thanks
