Hi [member=5916]trinidad[/member]
Well, I kind of "solved it" and by that what I really mean is that I've reinstalled LL and ditched Windows in the process by the way lol. I wasn't booting into it that much because of this overheating issue which make it impossible to work on windows; the CPU temps will go up sooner than later shutting down the pc, while in LL temps are more much lower so I can really use my computer. I spent most of my Sunday searching for a solution; tried I few things I found to isolate what caused it in the first place, read some logs, and another couple of things I don't remember now :
think I never typed so many commands as I did yesterday lol After several trials with no results I found this post which I'll gladly share as soon as I find again, which suggestion was that the problem could be in the ./config folder, and recommended to make a back up of it and reboot the pc, if the problem didn't show again then there was no doubt that the problem was there, if it persisted then it was something else. Well, I did that and when the pc restarted and LL start booting everything seemed to be ok, except that I wasn't presented with my old LL XFCE desktop but a debian one; wallapaper, menu, it was all debian. So somehow I managed to screw that directory way beyond repair or at least I wasn't able to. So I decided to go the easier way and reinstall LL, which gave me the perfect excuse to ditch windows as well as try a different approach when installing LL; not choosing "delete the disk and install" but "more options" which I never tried before, at least not with the entire disk available for a Linux OS and certainly not as explained on this post
Thank you for taking the time to answer!
