Dust in Fans or Vents
When there is a large amount of dust located in the vents or fan of a computer, it tends to cause overheating. While the device is powered off, take a compressed air duster and carefully blow off the dust from the vents and fan. Power on and run the laptop normally as you were prior to the issue.

The thermal paste inside the computer can evaporate under some conditions, preventing the computer from venting heat properly. To solve this problem, try looking at how to apply thermal paste.
Disk Drive Won’t Open
The disk drive isn’t opening when pressed.
Foreign Object in the Disk Drive
If a foreign object gets inside the disk drive, it could prevent it from opening. To solve this, simply unscrew the disk drive and remove the object from it by using a compressed air duster. Then, replace the drive in the computer.

If there was nothing keeping the drive from opening, the drive itself could be faulty. In this case, unscrew the drive and replace it with a new drive that fits the computer.
