==========================
But you said the shutdown was/is because of a BIOS thermal event.
How do you know if there is nothing in the logs?
The BIOS itself, during POST, makes very funny noises (instead of the customary
two beeps) and then stops with a message stating that the system was shut down
due to termal event.
I have to acnowledge it by pressing F4.
Then the boot proceeds normally.
One other strange thing is some of the filesystems I have are found "clean".
In the event of a catastrophic crash I would expect to find all the mounted
filesystems dirty.
What am I missing?
My BIOS has a section "PC Health Status", that has in it a "shutdown
temperature" enable/disable. Do you have something like that?
I see nothing to that effect.
I only have a "monitoring" option that shows temperatures, voltages and fan
speeds.
If there is some control funcrtion must be hidden somewhere else.
Next time I reboot I will have a closer look to all the options in order to see
if I missed something.
BTW: Murphy strikes again: this night the system survived with no problems :)
wmtemp is a temperature monitor, it does not record. I wrote
the recording function myself.
What BIOS do you have?
Unless it is very old there has to be access to en/disable those functions.
What motherboard?
