Many Vaio F series machines develop a problem that seems APM-related, but power management
actually only provides the symptom. After booting up successfully (or, in extreme
cases, not at all), APM senses that the system is overheating, and puts the processor
to sleep. The solution is a rework of the processor
board (not the mother board) to install components with greater heat tolerance.
