Well in Windows it works fine (Windows stays on). In Linux I had the
terminal open while I was browsing and my computer beeped. I wondered
what had happened so I looked at the terminal to see if there was
anything going on. And it said something like CPU 0 temperature high
(or something like that) CPU 1 temperature high. It kept repeating
them. I was able to successfully reboot and log into Windows. Sorry I
can't remember exactly what the terminal read.

Kind Regards,
Mike
