Troubleshooting
System running hot under load
Ensure the laptop is on a hard surface and not on a bed or carpet, which blocks airflow. Check for dust in the vents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your G16, connect the provided power adapter to ensure the processor can reach its maximum clock speeds during the initial Windows setup. Use the official MyASUS software to keep your drivers and BIOS firmware updated, which is critical for system stability. For care, clean the screen with a dry microfiber cloth and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners. Because this is a high-performance machine, clear any dust from the side and rear vents every few months using compressed air to maintain efficient airflow and prevent thermal throttling.
