re: Laptop shuts down Thursday, September 2, 2010 at 2:29 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Malcolm Fowler (1736 messages posted) Hi Pat, 55 or 55 degrees is not excessive for a laptop - it's very often normal depending on which processor. It maybe (?) that the BIOS has a temperature setting for closedown and this may be set too low (ie 54) in which case you could reset it to 65. This is quite a common setting for desktop motherboards - I'm not sure about laptops, you'll just have to check       Written in response to: re: Laptop shuts down (Pat: Thursday, September 2, 2010 at 11:07 am) Responses to this message: re: Laptop shuts down (Pat: Thursday, September 2, 2010 at 4:57 pm) All messages in this thread [show all] Laptop shuts down (Pat: Wed, Sep 1, 2010, 4:42 pm) re: Laptop shuts down (Malcolm Fowler: Wed, Sep 1, 2010, 5:44 pm) re: further info on cooling fan....
