Cleaning dust out of the inside of a laptop

If you've got a laptop for a year or two, cleaning dust out of the inside of a laptop may be worth considering. Dust clogs fans, vents, and heat sinks, preventing your PC from cooling down properly. Your laptop’s fans may also run at full blast, draining the battery or even reduce its performance to stay cool. How often you need to clean your laptop depends on the laptop itself and how dusty the environment is. Cleaning the inside of your laptop on a regular basis is a good idea, but don't go overboard and do this all the time.

Check your laptop’s manual, or look up a special “service manual” for your specific model of laptop online. Power down the laptop, remove the battery, and unscrew the panel to get at the laptop’s insides. If a service manual is available for your laptop, it will walk you through the process.

You can use the compressed air, but if you don't have any, don't buy a can. Just use a brush, and blow out the rest of the dust. Don’t use a vacuum.
When you’re done, you can screw the panel back on, plug in the battery, and power the laptop back on. It’ll run cooler, and its fans should spin up less often.

If your laptop has serious problems with overheating and you can’t clean it yourself, you may have to contact the manufacturer for service. If it’s still under warranty, they should hopefully help you.
