Update on Laptop,
did a Bios reset again, looked at logs for Win and last error was Acpi
shutdown.
Ran openhardware monitor and Heavyload and cpu temps shot up to 70 Deg C
Fan only seemed to turn on when I opened the monitor (coiencidence ? )
upshot is now Laptop runs within 7 Deg of Shutoff on Heavyload, but is
stable at this. Ran Cooler on Mint stress test than Win 7 ( Norton is
on!)
So carried on with Win 10 update, took 2 hours but no reboots
(unexpected) and all is OK!
Have shutdown and rebooted 5 times all fine so will leave it at that
advising to not run the laptop on a Cushion.
