A computer doesn't reboot from a heat issue; it usually shuts down. She's experiencing system reboots that could be caused by a flaky PSU, a BSOD, etc. How oftem does it happen? Does it reboot if you leave it on the BIOS screen for several hours, i.e., no OS running?
It has been sitting here for about 12 hours with a couple of windows open but not doing any processing.
I can try only the BIOS but I suspect that having Windows running is more realistic.
I've asked her if there is a way to replicate the problem but haven't received a response.
PSU was replaced within the last month for a similar problem.
