Critical temperature reached, shutting down

[Mark Neidorff]

Its a good thing that the system shuts down when it overheats.  Why would 
you want to change that behavior? (BTW, have you opened the case, taken 
the fan off of the heat sink and vacuumed it out really well? That may 
stop the sticky fan problem.
