Crispy IV is not fixed. She's better with the new fan, but she still failed in the same lock-up as before.
The difference is she went four days without failing this time instead of a few hours.
She will run indefinitely playing a movie, but crashes while I'm surfing the internet.
We're now suspecting the RAM, which also appears to be the oldest two sticks in service in a laptop here.
I've swapped the RAM from the seldom used Crispy II to see if that cures the issue.
PS: if you're confused at iterations of Crispy...
The name comes from them having black cases instead of the silver of the MacBooks they replaced.
Crispy I is the first T420S running Win7. This name was also applied to it running Ubuntu 20.
Crispy II is the same machine running Win10.
Crispy III is the second T420S running Ubuntu 22.
Crispy IV is the second T420S running Ubuntu 24 on a new hard drive.
