Well I really DON'T think the PCMCIA cards overheating are causing the problems simply because the processor sits right above these cards. If they overheated, the CPU would obviously overheat as well and go into thermal shutdown. My experiences with my overclocked L50 at least show that it doesn't take much to trip the thermal shutdown thing (immediately after thermal shutdown, I flip the keyboard and put my finger on the heatplate and can *JUST* keep it there for a few seconds before it gets too hot to keep my finger on it ... which means its running an awful lot cooler than, say, my old GeForce256 where I couldn't touch it at all!). Of course, it could be that Toshiba went the other way with the L70 or that I've just got a really sensitive temp diode in my old libby ... I notice that my new libby (L100) runs a LOT hotter than my old one (the heat plate could get too hot to touch even for a second yet it'll still be happily buzzing along). - Raymond --- /~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\ | | "Does fuzzy logic tickle?" | | ___ | "My HDD has no reverse.
