Tech Clinic / Acer Aspire 9300

I know this is an old thread but I thought this may help anyone with similar issue in the future.
If you disassemble the 9300 (and 9310, etc.) and remove the fan, you will find a (approx.) 2 in. x 2in. piece of thick, black, plastic-coated paper stuck to the inside of the laptop air intake grill !
I won't speculate as to why it is there but it wasn't put there by mistake........ it was cleanly glued into place at manufacture.
Remove this and your temperatures will drop by approx. 30 - 40% !
