Re: LTspice] Re: Simulator stops and crashes the whole computer?!

 

Something similar happened to my daughter's laptop when she watched movies. The laptop would get very warm and then freeze up. A Google search showed that enough lint would accumulate in the fins of the heatsink causing the cpu to overheat. This Dell laptop had provisions to remove a bottom cover to inspect the heatsink. I found a huge wad of lint trapped in the heatsink blocking all air flow. Removed the lint and problem solved.

There might also be BIOS updates to switch the fan on sooner, or slow the CPU down more quickly when it gets over warm...

Open the Laptop inside and clean the heat-pipe heatsink block by
pressing air in the opposite direction thru it.

There are system monitor progs showing CPU/main-board temperature.
Approx. 60¡ãC is the maximum temp. good for CPU.
