Okay, so sometimes when I'm on my laptop, the touch pad, and the area around it gets kind of warm and hot...

This means what? That I should not use it for awhile?

I don't know. I have a laptop and that's never happened to me before.

Mine did that a bit. Then the power adapter thing burned out. I'd probably let it cool down. Make sure the fan is able to fan.. aka don't sit the fan against your leg.

Let it cool off if it's REALLY hot. Otherwise computers were meant to get warm

laptops have smaller fans, so it is better to let them cool down after every couple of hours.

you need to shut it down for a while, give it a rest. It may overhear real bad

There are fan things you can get to go under a laptop. It cools them off. I know, I'm using one right now.

Laptops usually get hot. If it gets too hot, there is probably a lot of inside your laptop. Get one of those cans of compressed air and clear out the dust.
