My Toshiba satellite p50 laptop, under 100% cpu usage, was getting cpu temp readings of 90 degrees Celsius. (Idled at 50) I was worried, so I decided to clean out the fans and replace thermal paste.
After doing that and reassembling, I pressed the power button. It turned on, showed all led's, and the fan maxed out. But it immediately shuts off a second later, before it even gets to a boot screen.
I've tried multiple methods to fix it, including removing the battery and running off cable, and reseating most of the components.
I'm led the believe either the motherboard or cpu is the culprit. Any suggestions? Is my laptop finished? That's a shame because it had an i7 processor, and a decent gpu chip.
