Prochot ext refers to issues on the motherboard beyond just the CPU, possibly due to thermal throttling or a faulty sensor. It might be a malfunctioning sensor, and it’s unclear if there’s a solution to avoid this. Someone with deeper expertise would likely have more insight.
The laptop repairer likely reconnected the heatsink, missed adding thermal pads, chose an incorrect size, took off the K5 component, and failed to replace or properly secure it again. This led to slight overheating without effective cooling, forcing the system to throttle when temperatures rose too high.
I’d bring it back to the repair shop, explain the problem, and then check their response—they should address it if they’re responsible.
