11 Well, if you want to get to the bottom of things, you may have to.
12 And in fact, if the laptop is under warranty, you are better off finding
13 out if it is broken now rather than later.
14 Note: cpuburn doesn't burn your cpu (unless your laptop's design is
15 flawed) and it is quite likely to cause a crash if there is a problem
16 with your system.
