This may or may not be of help.
Laptop's "BREATH" through the keyboards and exhaust out the bottom and sometimes sides.
If you feel safe in doing this, pull the battery and maybe the hard (only if you are competent to do so) and "BACK BLOW" the air flow path with low pressure( 5- 10 Psi) "DRY" air .
Sometimes you can get a speck of dust in the wrong place.
IF you feel in the least uncomfortable with the above procedure DO NOT DO IT ! , take them to a good puter shop or service center.
