I have a Dell M1530 with a Mobile Intel Core2Duo T8100.
Its 3 years old and has never given me any trouble.
Today, all of a sudden it refused o boot. Most of the times it wouldn't get past the BIOS load, and occassionally it would reach Windows Boot screen.
After a while, I gave up. I tried later again, and it booted up fine.
I'm wondering if the problem is that the PCU is heating up.
The temperature's according to Core Temp right now on the processor is around 40 on idle, and 48 on max during booting up (no stress test).
Do these seem fine, or is it running hot?
