form the rest of the stuff below ... your disk system is corrupted
- if your system boots properly .. and x11 looks oky fro a while ...
i'd bet the cpu is still okay...
- if you, or anybody, has to hit the reset or power switch at least once,
i say the machine is misconfigured ... or something is seriously wrong
with the existing hardware ( i'm finicky about things working right
esp if means losing data if "something" is known to be wrong/flaky )
- reset and power switch should be hands off
- if you have a heat problem
- take the covers off
- put a standard $20 household fan on it and blow the !@#$% out of
it ... skip all those mickey mouse 40mm/80mm/120mm fans
- the bios should should down the cpu in its "health monitor" section
if it has the capability .. otherwise, put an egg on it and have
breakfast sometimes ..
