I have a Studio 1536 that has intermittent overheating issues - I get the #M1004 error code. I tried elevating it, got a cooling fan and that has helped as in it doesn't overheat and shutdown as often. I also updated the BIOS. After experiencing this problem for a while, I started getting warning messages that my battery needed to be replaced.
My question: Are the two related? If I replace the battery, will it solve the overheating issue?
Thanks!
