Customer's Toshiba Equium, trying to find an intermittent freezing problem, left it running Mem Test for about 2 hours. Smelled heat, and it was running slow but successfully. Stopped test and allowed it to boot into Windows and quickly ran Speccy. Although it had been cooling down for a couple of minutes to boot, temps were sky high, 89degC or so. A few more minutes and they were back down to mid 50s. I always assumed fan control was automatically achieved by the mobo, surely not by Windows?? Someone put me right!
(Heat not the cause of the freezing as I left it running Speeccy earlier and it froze showing temps mid 50s...)
