Default Is anyone else getting hard computer lock ups with this month's MRT.exe's full scans?

Yep, it is heat related since I left the left side case open and ran 7.5
hours of MRT.exe full scan. And then, I tried Prime95's mixed tests and
that only lasted aboug 5 minutes.


Almost certainly the CPU fan, which gives a hard shutdown without warning.


Well, the fan does still spin. Maybe it is not enough to cool it down
since my room is hot (almost 90F degrees)?
