    Hi group,

    My lenonvo 3000 N100 turns off by itself after i use it for 45 minutes and then every 8 minutes if i try to restart from then on. If I try switching it on the next day it would work for 45 mins - 1 hour and then turns itself off with the black screen suddenly. And then it continues to do so.
    I installed the NHC and the CPU temperature fluctuates between 48 and 51 degree C. the hard disk at 41 degree C. I cleaned up the vent with the compressed air can and it doesnt seem to make any difference. My power scheme is set to "Portable/Laptop". I feel 51 degree C of CPU temperature at auto-switch off time is not overheating. My Event Log for application shows "MsiInstaller Warning" some 9 times before it turned off. I wonder if there is anything I could do to diagnose what the problem could be with this.

    If it makes any difference, my battery doesnt work anymore, I am connected through AC adapter. please let me know if anyone has suggestions. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Chandra.
