Why?

My HP Envy x360 is consistently crashing. probably because I was compiling a application from source while the laptop fans were smothered by my bed and slightly cooked the CPU. I have swapped the RAM and storage to see if that was the issue, it was not. So i am shelving my HP Envy laptop for my old HP Elitebook 8460p that was presumed to have dead graphics from cat hair, old age, and the crushing weight of a over weight cat sitting on top while in the possession of my mother. A while ago I turned on my old HP Elitebook 8460p and i was working again; I don’t know how?

What now?

I will be using it for the time being, untill I can save up enough money for a framework 13.

BTW, since the HP elitebook is thicker and heavier that my HP envy, I have nicknamed it my CHONKY-HP.
