I can't cold-boot into Windows. If I try, it takes about ten minutes (literally) and behaves very sluggishly afterwards.

Isn't this a standard feature?

First I need to start Linux and stay there for a while, like starting X, the browser...till, I suspect, the machine reaches a certain temperature. I have no other explanation why I need to spend at least 30 min before I can boot Windows.

Hmm. Your hardware knows the punishment it's about to receive, and need to be stroked before venturing into the abyss...

Sorry, couldn't resist :-)
