dell precision 7510 will auto shutdown after 2004 windows update
after a windows update, my dell precision 7510 will auto shutdown. when i check event viewer i see a thermal even has caused it to shutdown.
i installed hardware monitor to see the CPU temps and ran a render, it always shutsdown when i run my render. so a ran the render and like clockwork i see the cpus 1234 all hover in the high 90s one of them even 100 celsius and will shutdown.
its weird but i wasnt having this issue until i updated a few days ago. i have cleaned with compressed air the fans and vents, i made sure all the hardware drivers were updated through dell command update, i updated the GPU, sfc /scannow, my last resort is to downgrade the windows version which i have not tried but it may uninstall some apps.
im just wondering if anyone has experienced this and if anyone has a fix for this issue.
I had a similar issue with my Precision 7710 after the 2004 update. My solution was to take everything apart clean the fans, the heatsink, and apply new thermal paste. Now the system runs cooler than it ever has, and I can't get it to trigger any thermal events anymore.
We tried reaching you on a private message asking for the Service Tag but did not receive a response. Please feel free to reply to the private message whenever you are available.
yes that was something that i did with the fans but didnt do the thermal paste. did you follow a tutorial or did you do the steps yourself?
thanks @JamesJAB1 for your reply it makes me feel certain now that the thermal paste will fix the issue. i will try that and come back and mark as solution once i confirm.
I already knew how to disassemble and reassemble this model laptop. For anyone else I recommend following the step by step instructions in the service manual. Get some high quality thermal paste and completely clean the paste off of the GPU, CPU, and Heatsink. Also while the heatsink is off, carefully remove the fans and clean the space between them and the heatsink fins. After reassembling, your temperatures should be back under control.
