About this tag
The Lenovo W510 is a mobile workstation that users discuss in the context of hardware troubleshooting, particularly when the laptop experiences crashes, stuttering, and hangs that require a hard power-off. Issues may occur during POST or BIOS startup and are suspected to be CPU-related, possibly triggered by heavy CPU activity. Discussions focus on diagnosing and resolving these hardware-related problems.
My guess is hardware, but what I notice is that the machine will stutter -> hang -> then totally crash. The system is still "on" but I must do a hard-power-off in order to turn it on again.
Sometimes after crashing it will hang and crash during the whole POST/BIOS startup section as well...
