Troubleshooting freezing of 19-year-old PC
Go to solution
Solved by DoctorNick,
Enter BIOS, check temperature of CPU. If very hot, then it's likely because the thermal paste disintegrated after 19 years of use. Remove CPU heatsink, clean and re-paste Wouldn't post most likely if a component died. If ram died, you would most likely get BSOD.
