[QUOTE="angeloemmetaly, post: 1642520, member: 344664"] Is a 10.8 but my MacBook is a 17" pro form 2008. I bought it from this company who assembled it and upgraded to the latest ( at the time) operating system, 4gb of RAM, 2.4 ghz of CPU and 750 GB of Internal HD. The problem is that having a look at the activity monitor it appears that without running any application the user system is using already 80% of the CPU. A friend of mine told me that it could be possible that the 10.8 being a very heavy operating system is causing the logic board to overheat, considering this is quite an old computer. I don't really know if this is true or not but I already had my logic board changed around .1 year and ald ago and now I have the same issue, so definitely sow thing is causing my logic board to fail, the problem is that I don't know what :( I will definitely try the disk repair thing, thanks!
