Windows 10: CPU too hot when laptop is plugged in

Recently my CPU is running way too hot all of a sudden and my fans are too loud even when idle. I run multiple virus and malware scans Kasperskey, MalwareBytes, Rkill, HitmanPro, RoqueKiller but nothing was found I also cleaned the vents. After doing some research I got the idea that it might be cryptojacking, but I could be wrong. I also noticed that the temperature of the CPU, and subsequently the fan speed, decreased when I unplugged my laptop and when I have the Task Manager Window open, which I found particularly odd. I know that the CPU is supposed to have higher powered when plugged

Cpu hot

Hey,

I have msi g65 thin 10UE and today I opened it and was trying to install something and I did but after I installed it my cpu became too hot without doing any tasks and the fans are running like crazy. I thought it was a virus so I did a virus and malware scans using multiple apps and softwares paid and free ones and after all that it didn't work. I did a reset on my laptop but the cpu is still hot for no reason. Any ideas???

 

Thunderbolt 2.0 hot plug problems Windows 10

TL;DR:

For some reason hot plugging my Thunderbolt dock is not working correctly on my new laptop. I am trying to determine if I've overlooked a troubleshooting step.

Problem:

If the dock is unplugged after the system has already booted then my USB devices (mouse & keyboard) will not reconnect when the dock is reconnected. Thunderbolt monitor reconnects, but not USB. No power is provided to the keyboard or mouse - keyboard lights do not illuminate & optical sensor on the mouse stays dark. This is resolved with a reboot, but the problem persists.

Hardware / Software:

• Dell Precision M3800
  
• BIOS A09 (previously upgraded to A10 before motherboard replacement)
  
• Windows 10 (direct upgrade from Windows 7 64 Bit Professional )
  
• Belkin Thunderbolt 2 Express Dock HD
  
• Thunderbolt (TM) Controller - 157D
  
  • Device manager hardware ID "PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_157D&SUBSYS_11112222&REV_00"
    
  • This is an Intel hardware ID (fitting as Intel makes Thunderbolt)
    
• GRUB bootloader
  
  • Kali Linux on second hard drive partition
    

Attempted fixes: (None of these solved the problem)

• All Intel Chipset drivers reinstalled from Dell's website via their tech support's recommendation
  
• Driver update on Thunderbolt controller yields "Software for your device is up to date"
  
• "Fresco logic USB3.0 host controller" reinstalled
  
• Upgraded original OS from Windows 7 to Windows 10
  
• Upgraded system BIOS from A09 to A10
  
• Had Belkin directly replace the docking station with a new one
  
• Had Dell directly replace the system motherboard
  
  • The new board has the A09 BIOS
    
• Stopped and started Thunderbolt (TM) service
  
• Booted into Safe mode
  
  • Thunderbolt works on boot but the thunderbolt service cannot run in safe mode
    
  • Hot plugging fails to work correctly in safe mode
    
• All Thunderbolt devices involved have been authorized in the "Thunderbolt TM Software" and set to "Always Connect"
  

Other Notes:

• An identical Precision M3800 and Belkin dock were ordered at the same time as my own
  
  • This other laptop does not have the same problems mine does with hot plugging
    
  • This other "working" laptop has been used with both docks w/o problems hot plugging
    
  • The "non-working" laptop has the same problems hot plugging with both docks
    
  • The working laptop has Windows 10 loaded onto it - it was also upgraded from x64 7 Pro
    
  • The working laptop does not have GRUB or a second OS installed
    
• Cannot locate drivers for the "Thunderbolt 157D controller" on Intel's website.
  
  • It is possible that this is a rebadged controller they are already manufacturing; complete dearth of information.
    

Last Thoughts:

• Is there anything obvious I am overlooking?
  
• Is there some problem with hot plugging when GRUB is installed or a second OS is on a system?
  
• Are there any pieces of system software that typically interfere with hot plugging thunderbolt devices?
  
• With this description would a fresh OS reinstall likely fix the issue?
  

Apologies for the length of this post; thus far commercial tech support has been limited and time consuming. I am hopeful that someone in the community may already be familiar with this issue.

 

idle power consumption higher with SATA hot plug enabled

The idle power consumption of my ASUS B560 board increases from 9W to 16W as soon as I enable SATA hot plug for one port in BIOS. Unfortunately I would need this feature for several internal SATA devices (HDD swap racks, backup disks, etc.)

Any ideas to

• reduce idle consumption when SATA hot plug is enabled OR
• mount devices manually without that BIOS option? (devcon rescan is not sufficient)
