So I suspect it is overheating, it constantly freezes and hangs or even shuts down.
Can a bigger HDD cause it to heat up more?
Can the battery possibly be shorting?
Also, whenever I restart my laptop and get to the sign in screen, I have to close the lid and let my laptop sleep before being able to sign in, if I don't do this it will freeze and hang on the sign in screen.
I am on a Mac Book Pro (Early 2006) running Snow Leopard, and went from a 80gb HDD to 500gb HDD
Could running Snow Leopard cause an older machine like this to over heat? I have seen the heat go past 200 Fahrenheit.
Any and all help wll be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
