I have an Asus1201N and have been having some shutdown issues with it - unfortunately since I have been travelling I havent done much until I got home and settled in.

Just installed CoreTemp
Here are the readings

Frequency: 1599.86MHz (133.32x12.0)
VID : 1.1625v

TjMax 125.0
Core #0 : 99 to 101oC at 0% to 12% Load
Core #1 : 101 to 104oC at 5% to 7% Load

Those are pretty bad temperatures, if your getting random shut downs thats even worse. So follow these steps:


Make sure your fan is spinning, Also Buy a can of compressed air and clean the heatsinks/vents of your laptop. Make sure they are indeed clear. Also always keep your laptop on a hard surface, like a table. Never on your lap or on a bed. Obviously there are always people who insist on leaving there laptop on a bed even though they know its not good for it. If you want to do this, leave it under a book. make sure when the laptop sinks into the bed, it doesn't cover the vents.

if your fan isn't spinning make sure to contact asus to warranty replacements.
