I MUST turn OFF hyperthreading but I dont know how.
My computer turns of randomly, Im using something which cools the fan down but it still does it. It is overheating. Shuts down before it BREAKS. So yes.
If you have an AMD processor or have a different/updated Bios then it will be a similar process.
Hyperthreading is exclusive to Intel, but yeah it needs to be turned off in the BIOS.
Emily6: Wait? You're saying that your CPU is overheating? Then turning off hyperthreading isn't the solution. You have a deeper problem to solve. Did you monitor your temperatures on idle and under load?
