MacBook Intermittent shutdown on MacBook 2006 model

[gianbulanhagui]

My 2006 MacBook shuts down after 15-20 mins. Have tried to reseat the ram and battery already. Also tried to zap the ram modules. Still shuts down. Can even reformat it cause it shuts down in the middle of the installation. Help!

Looks like it's a known problem with the 2006 model and caused by the cable between the heat sensor and the CPU’s heat sink being too short.

Heat sinks are crap on everything. I don't trust them, at all.

I was gonna say, either an over-heating problem or maybe the power supply.
