I am trying to track down a random shutdown issue. I am so far unable to
locate the info and or tools to solve this issue.
My computer is a Compaq laptop with a processer that is not really designed
for laptops so it normally runs hot. The shutdowns that I am experiencing are
random, and with no error messages. I get a dark screen and a computer that I
have to reboot. The shut down is instant, there is no file maintance, closing
of programs, etc. It just shuts down.
Although I do not think this is a heat issue as my fans are working well and
ramping up and the grills are not blocked. I would like to know if there are
tools that will tell me what is happening when the shut down happens. I have
tried to examine the console. I have also searched the MSKB but I can not
find a description of my problem.
Goal for this posting: To be pointed towards the correct info and tools to
solve this problem.
