I would like to purhcase the LG IPS237L-BN to use as an external display for my Smasung RC520 Laptop. In the past however I have found that connecting my laptop to an external monitor via HDMI has resulted in the laptop overheating and its fans going out of control. Is there any particular reason for this and are there any measures I can take to prevent this from happening with my current Samsung Laptop? The last laptop I tried connecting to an external monitor was made by HP and after few days of use the laptop began to overheat and shut down.

Any tips and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
