| | annoyed | ] | Well, the machine's been running for a few hours since extracting a ton of dust from the CPU heatsink, and I've also installed Motherboard Monitor 5 to keep track of temperatures and such. Worst-case readings so far:
Case: 26 °C CPU: 49°C HDA: 47°C HDB: 51°C
Core: 1.78 V +3.3: 3.42 V +5: 4.66 V (eek!) +12: 12.42 V
CPU fan: 4530 RPM
I think I can guess why my computer is spontaneously rebooting. That +5 voltage does not look happy, and nor do the scorch marks on all the +5 feeds to the motherboard. Methinks a new power supply is on the horizon... |

Yep. Looks like the 5V regulation has failed, or is about to... | |
