Usually laptop overheats and desktop overheats are caused by a broken cooling system, most computers have a type of vent fan to blow out hot air cause by the machinery-type stuff inside, do you hear a fan-like noise when your computer is on? If not, you may have a broken vent fan.
2 :
Do you use your laptop on your lap? Or, do you let it sit on your bed while you use it? Letting you laptop sit on the bed (or anything soft that it will not have a gap for air under it) will make it get hot and possibly overheat. If your fan is working, you may have a battery problem, and you should take it to someone that can check it out for you.
3 :
It may be a virus or your laptop is having a hard time breathing if that makes since lol. Scan your system for viruses, if none show up. Check your laptop for dust.
4 :
It is probably dust and lint clogging the fan exit. You can send it in for service, but they will charge you. If you feel up to it you can probably clear most of it by removing the door over the CPU and fan (rear of the unit on the side with the fan vent) and then using canned air to blow into the fan exit vent and back though the heatsink vanes and fan.

im also got Y410 it always overheat try Buy a laptop cooler.. it will worksss !!

It is probably because the vents have taken in dust and the fans aren't performing at their best. For one thing make sure it is on a hard, flat surface. Once you've done that VACUUM the vent with one of your vacuums to extract the dust inside of it (you don't need to power the laptop off or anything like that). I know this sounds stupid but this is the BEST way for me. I've had many crashes from overheating and my computer would reach up to 53 degrees Celsius but once I vacuumed my vents, it immediately shot down to 18-19 degrees Celsius. It's amazing. You can download a program that controls your fans and tells you the temperature of your computer here --> http://www.diefer.de/i8kfan/index.html Good luck

It's because that's where most of the parts of the laptop are that make it work. If it gets too hot I suggest you replace the fan in it.
2 :
On the G650, that should be the hard drive generating the heat.
3 :
There is placed hard drive module or maybe a power supply section. Any way go to amazon en you will find the unique solution for this matter copy and paste following to your internet browsing. http://www.amazon.com/Xpad-Non-slip-Laptop-Cooler-Heatshield/dp/B001RQ2HWK/ref=sr_1_22?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1283115967&sr=1-22 Good luck

You can't get any legit copy of vista for free anywhere. What you can do is get the recovery CDs from lenovo for a small fee to fix your problem.
2 :
What do you mean you can't get in? is it asking for a product key? If there wasnt a hardware change, the product key that is on the bottom of your laptop should be working, if there was then contact lenovo and ask for a product key. why contact lenovo instead of microsoft? if your vista was pre-installed that means that you have an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacture) license and your primary support provider for any issue is Lenovo (that is if you still are within warranty) working with a MS tech would require a charge of $59/$79 + tax for OS issues. If product key is what you need and lenovo cannot provide you with that (as they will just point you to MS if they dont know what to do) you can request a lenovo rep to call MS on behalf of you, however, there might be a charge of $10 + tax
