That is what I thought, because it was always running rather "hot" at those
times..... maybe i should stick the "laptop" in the freezer for a few ....
see if it stops after cooling down.... ...Is this even a viable solution? Or
just plain crazy ? Thanks so much for the reply it helps me stay sane. By
the way how does one deal with an "over-heat" temp. alarm problem.... can it
(alarm) just be muted ? in the Bios department of sounds.?
