My main computer was/is a HP DV-7 I did all my web pages and image/video work on it, did everything I wanted to do with power to spare. The last 2 months it's spent more then 5 separate weeks at the repair depot, It was overheating etc, this past week I sent it back in when it got warm enough to transfer plastic from a cooler to the base of the computer (laptop cooler with fans) I got a shipment notice from them without the case manager calling like she said she would to inform me of what the issue is. I was told by the person they replaced the fan....again.....

This is what they've done and what I've done

Replaced Fan (first time)

Replaced heatsinks and systemboard

Replaced fan again

(other unrelated work they did (I hope unrelated) )
Screen, other one was loosing color

Keyboard (multiple Key loss and failure)

What I've done
I've reset the computer's OS back to Factory default, backed up all my data and did that. computer still ran hot

Replaced the HDD with a brand new one and a fresh copy of Vista. Again, still ran hot

Freecycled a laptop cooling tray thing (has fans in it)

Computer Transferred plastic from the top of the cooler to the bottom of the computer (yes, that warm)

Of late I hadbeen using the computer 30 minutes at a time and shutting it down for an hour and a half between use (pain in the butt to do)

So, basically they are returning it without doing much of anything.... what would you do?
