jeffmo@NoSpam-sv-lokiDOTcom tempted fate with:

Just a thought - are you running Windows 98? On that OS they didn't handle the "idle
loop" correctly and the CPU runs 100% all the time, maximizing heat. There is software to
correct this. I think ME and XP don't have this problem.

And another thing: You shouldn't be running a computer during the day when its hot - the
fact that its shutting down is proof that God didn't intend them to be used for
navigation! ;-}

Hehe, good one. It's ME, running on a Duron with the PowerNow
software, so that end should be OK. The box is a 2 year old HP
Pavilion and I've heard that they are prone to this sort of thing
because of a poor cooling design and substandard fans. Nice box,
otherwise. I've added memory, which may contribute to the problem.
