This problem MAY NOT be Arista's fault. Firstly, how OLD is your PC? If the answer is 'at least 'over a year old'. Then I suggest you get it to a computer shop (Not one of those big ones lime Stapes or Comet) but the smaller types.
The reason being, I opened my PC up at the weekend to swap a Hard Drive over and when I came to turn my PC back on, it immediately shut down. I opened it back up only to discover my CPU heatsink dnagling down from its wire and where the CPU coolants is supposed to be, it had just crystalised (due to the heat and age, 5 years old). I have now got if repaired and it is working fine now, the programs that were causing the heatspike have converted OK now and I left it overnight converting a string of files and it is still working now. Before this problem was discovered, my CPU temp was at 57C (idle) and now its steady at 30C - 35C. While converting, it's only at 51C, so I'd say, on my part, it's fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/636328 Title: Arista causes CPU heat to spike, actually causing computer to shutdown To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/arista/+bug/636328/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
