[QUOTE="BeyondTheBox, post: 1141885, member: 179315"] It could also be that the inverter I installed was a refurb, as I did find it for a lot cheaper than I thought I should, $40. I've also read that a reload of the OS would help, at least temporarily, because it obviously resets any logs created as well as the hardware such as the sensors. Hmm... conundrum for sure. Still looking for some help. I did some more reading online, specifically on Apple's support site and the first cases of this were mostly due to a faulty trackpad heat sensor. It's located right where your hands rest while using the trackpad and prolonged use could easily cause it. My computer did experience times of extreme heat, I couldn't even have it on my lap without a throw pillow to buffer it. I'm just at a loss right now. [/QUOTE]
