Hello there.

Recently, I upgraded my system to windows 10. Before I had windows 7 and I had the option to go into sleep mode after a certain time disabled, but in sleep mode it was set to it automatically.

So, my computer went to sleep, and when I turned it on, my motherboard started overheating. Before, it was on 40 degrees Celsius the whole time, but then it was reaching 90 degrees Celsius and the computer is pretty much unusable, since the CPU was also overheating.

Did my coolers stay asleep or something?
I turned off my computer immediately, hopefully it gets fixed by itself. What can I do about this in case it doesn't?

Thanks in advance.
