I'll be out of action a while folks..........my pc has just shut down.

So I re-booted, checked temps, and my CPU is currently running at 98C....and rising.

So I'll be hoping its nothing serious:(

Good luck.

Obvious first check is to make sure the CPU cooler fan is working.

If it is, perhaps reseat the CPU cooler using fresh thermal compound.
