Comment: My laptop use Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-2502.
Before I can see DVD movies on this DVD-ROM for three hours. Now this DVD-ROM only play half hours DVD movies, then freeze screen and can not play anymore.
I need push power buttom to turn off PC for less half hours, then can using again.
Someone told me it is DVD-ROM overheat problem, because if I don't play DVD movies, I can keep using PC for many hours without any problem.
Is there any way to fix DVD-rom overheat problem ?

Would you give me some tip to setup fan speed.
Thank you.
