[QUOTE="Magic, post: 308681, member: 23359"] With this laptop the fan is in the top right. All of it went out of the actual vent.[DOUBLEPOST=1413595475,1413589281][/DOUBLEPOST]Update: I can now actually start the laptop into Ubuntu some times. I've just had it on for about 10 minutes straight in Ubuntu and was able to browse the internet, change the desktop background etc etc. It did crash again though but at least Ubuntu managed to install successfully. Maybe a piece of hardware causes the crash when it is accessed?[DOUBLEPOST=1413703666][/DOUBLEPOST]I have fixed the issue, the screws securing the CPU chip were not screwed down properly. [/QUOTE]
