I never shut our workstation down - not unless we have to.
Today I noticed it was shutoff. Before I played the blame game, I went through the console. Should I be worried?
Thanks!
Googling that text brings up many references to Intel CPU heat overload, a cause of disorganized power-down in Intel processors.
You appear to have a cooling problem.
Could be a high temp problem. I would install an app that can measure fan speed and temps. There is iStat and the free Macs Fan Control.
Also open the side cover and makes sure the interior and fans blades are clear of dust. Clean as necessary. Make surer the fans spin freely, especially the graphics card fans since they might not show in the temp/fan monitoring app. You can leave the side cover off when the Mac is running to check fan operatin
How nervous should I be about THRMTRIP# ?
