<title>Il computer si surriscalda troppo</title>

<p>Most computers get warm after a while, and some can get quite hot. This is
normal: it is simply part of the way that the computer cools itself. However,
if your computer gets very warm it could be a sign that it is overheating,
which can potentially cause damage.</p>

<p>Most laptops get reasonably warm once you have been using them for a while.
It is generally nothing to worry about - computers produce a lot of heat and
laptops are very compact, so they need to remove their heat rapidly and their
outer casing warms up as a result. Some laptops do get too hot, however, and
may be uncomfortable to use. This is normally the result of a poorly-designed
cooling system. You can sometimes get additional cooling accessories which fit
to the bottom of the laptop and provide more efficient cooling.</p>

<p>If you have a desktop computer which feels hot to the touch, it may have
insufficient cooling. If this concerns you, you can buy extra cooling fans or
check that the cooling fans and vents are free from dust and other blockages.
You might want to consider putting the computer in a better-ventilated area too
- if kept in confined spaces (for example, in a cupboard), the cooling system in the
computer may not be able to remove heat and circulate cool air fast enough.</p>

<p>Alcune persone si preoccupano dei rischi per la salute derivanti dall'uso di portatili caldi. Ci sono indicazioni che sconsigliano l'uso di portatili caldi sulle ginocchia perché potrebbero ridurre la fertilità maschile, e sono stati segnalati casi estremi di persone che hanno subito piccole ustioni. Se preoccupati di questi potenziali problemi, richiedere il parere di un medico.</p>

<p>Molti computer moderni si spengono da soli se raggiungono temperature elevate, per prevenire eventuali guasti. Se il computer continua a spegnersi, questa potrebbe essere la causa. Nel caso in cui si surriscaldi, probabilmente è necessario riavviarlo.</p>
