Hi!

You're under critical temps.

Have you updated your kernel? (kernel manages many parameters)

sudo apt-get update

sudo aptitude install linux-image -f

You may need to restart..do so.

Please advise.

aptitude isn't installed by default on some newer versions of Ubuntu. To install it:

sudo apt-get install aptitude

yep..Fan is running

[KegHead]

Hi!

Yup, your kernel was updated!

That might have solved your temp problem.

Give it a few hours-days!

If you're satisfied your question was answered, please mark your thread as "solved".

[aditya08]

Temperature is still high..
acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1: +83.0°C (crit = +100.0°C)
temp2: +78.0°C (crit = +100.0°C)
temp3: +98.0°C (crit = +100.0°C)

It didn't solve the issue

[KegHead]

Hi!

Is there a red icon on the upper right hand part of your screen?

If it's red, you'll need to restart for the upgrade to take effect.

KegHead

[aditya08]

Nope. Coz I have already restarted.

[aditya08]

Hi All,

The issue is still not resolved. Pls advise,

Thanks,
Aditya

[KegHead]

Hi!

Can you get into your bios?

You might have a few options there.

KegHead

[aditya08]

I can.
Since the issue is unresolved, I will open a new thread.
