    I was unable to find the Cavas thread, so i just posted, sorry if it exists and is is categorized but I could not find it. This forum is different than I remember. I used to hang out on the Z1 thread all the time.

    I am thinking thermal, but it runs in safe mode for a while. It shows STEAM just before crash, power cut. STEAM is a recent addition. I have had some crashing in the past, upgrading Intel WLAN drivers fixed that right up. This seems thermal like not all the fans are working or something.

    Any ideas?
