Keeps turning off, after a couple of minutes

I'm pretty sure it's turning off, due to overheating. I'd like to repaste the CPU. Anyone have any instructions on that?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

The Service Manual can be located at Dell's official Support site. There is an entire second on how to remove the Heat Sink and(as well as any parts needed to get to the Heat sink). It isn't as linear as an iFixit Guide, but you should be able to muddle through.

You may also find the iFixit Guide for repasting a laptop CPU helpful.
