Previous shutdown due to thermal event

Nov 16th, 2005

What causes this error? And how can I fix it??

Thanks.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust if it weren't for Chevys my tools

would rust. If Chevys are the heartbeat of America, then

America needs a pacemaker. FORD ROCKS!!

Check that the fans in your computer case are working and free of dust bunnies. You may need to enter the BIOS setup to reset the error.

You should also check for the capacitors on your motherboard ... see if they are alright ... most probably your system fan is not working or some capacitors have burst ..
