Motherboard failure. It was a t5500 with xeon procs and dual Quadro 4000 cards. Very nice a few years ago, but serving duty as media pc. Actually glad it died. Got me to finish a few projects.

POS was like five years old and couldn’t run without overheating for more that fifteen minutes if I didn’t constantly run a fan at full power alongside it.

It won’t be missed.

Been there. Hopefully you backed up the good stuff. Good luck. If you’re in Eugene I can get you a loaner.

Had experienced massive overheating issues for the past eight months or so and this week it started to crash for no reason after a few minutes everytime I turned it on. It is pretty much dead right now.

Hm, if you ever do want to replace it, the boards are less than $50 on ebay

I’m not going to ship a five year old mid-range laptop over the Atlantic ocean to get it fixed by my main man Nibby himself, especially when one of my uncles has a spare brand spanking new high-end Laptop lying around because my aunt didn’t need it.

Yeah.....as great as laptops are, this is why my main PC is a desktop. No overheating issues and parts are easily replacable. Not so on laptops though, I’m afraid :( (other than RAM/HDD)....if your video card or any other part dies though, your laptop is pretty much scrap.

I just have a basic, cheap little netbook running Linux for my laptop. Good enough for web surfing and the ocassional Youtube video.

I get a constant feed of hardware from work. This one is going to the recycling.
