    Not sure what's going on here. When streaming vids for time
    unit will simply shut down. No warning, no anything. Simply
    shuts down and have to do a fresh boot. I'm thinking this
    has something to do with heat, though it runs at 47 to 60
    C when at full power. I replaced the card with a ATI 3650M
    card as the Nvidia needed work. Core's been updated to
    Turion II 60 from a 58 and ram is at 4 gigs. Drive is farily
    new WD Black 320. It only happens streaming vids from
    the net. Never happens with movies recorded or via optical.

    This has just started happening.

    Any hints, clues or and help is appreciated in advance
