  • Medically retired Tech. Old School / re-learning !
When I was 'repairing' peoples old laptops, the biggest intermittent problem by far, (2nd to the ubiquitous Viruses etc...), was
old dried out Heat-Sink paste!!! causing them to thermally shut down.  Modern laptops can run so hot, as they are 'pushed' so
far these days. Oh... I tell a partial lie...  And education of laptop 'users' to NOT leave their laptop on top of their Doona/quilt when
in bed!!!  The damn intake air is usually underneath, and gets totally blocked!!!   :phew:
Diagonal of 1x1 square = Root-2. Ok.
Diagonal of 1x1x1 cube = Root-3 !!!  Beautiful !!

This was a constant battle between me and my wife. This lasted until one day when her laptop shut down and she lost some work... Now it has become better - not perfect, but better.

Oh, the "whys" of the datasheets... The information is there not to be an axiomatic truth, but instead each speck of data must be slowly inhaled while carefully performing a deep search inside oneself to find the true metaphysical sense...
