Can a laptop turn itself off if it overheats too much? or will it explode/burn its internal components?
My main concern is if the laptop “knows” that It’s overheated too much, to the point that keeping itself running & not shutting down is self-destructive or even fatal.
My laptop is a model from the 2010s, so I’m not sure if it has the technology to turn itself off.
The new ones will thermal throttle first and then shut down but back in 2000 I had a laptop that fried itself when I left it on bed and thought I had shut it down but it probably got stuck on some not responding screen.
