The fan ran at high speed and the laptop would randomly shut down. I suspected a cooling problem. Turned out there was a layer of dust caked on the “fan side” of the cooling fins. I removed the fan/heat sink assembly and used a vacuum and an artist’s brush to clean the fins and fan blades. Put a fresh layer of thermal compound on the CPU and GPU heat sinks and reassembled everything. This back panel removal/replacement instruction page was a great help. Everything went back together successfully and, to my amazement, there were no screws left over!
