Bitcoin mining on laptop is NOT a good idea.

Firstly, I downloaded EasyMiner on my personal Dell Inspiron 15 5518 and it didn't go really well. It does a hang and I need to restart laptop to restore functionality.

After the first attempt, I went to office and brought 27 HP ProBook 440 G7s. These laptops have 10th Generation i5 and i7 processor, some of them have 256 and 512GB SSD and some of them have 1TB 5400, 7200RPM HDDs, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021 installed and 32GB maxed RAM. Unlike my personal laptop which had 11th Generation i3 Processor, 8GB RAM and 512GB SSD and Windows 11 Home on my personal laptop.

I finished downloaded EasyMiner on these 27 laptops in April 4, 2024 and start mining in tomorrow at 12AM with 24/7 power on, plugged in and stayed in large desk in my room at office.

After about 3 months, 21 laptops turned off and won't startup but having 3 long beeps and 5 short beeps alongside with flashing Caps lock and Num lock light (CPU failure) and 6 laptops have an error message says thermal shutdown occurred but (al)most of them still fully functionally. Also, one in six of survived laptop have burned screen... might caused by heat and random crashes with the WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR stopcode... (processor might be fail or something)

I learned and never did this stupid thing again and...

Thanks for reading, remember and tell your friends at office to not attempt to do this stupid thing. I made a big mistakes that money could buy my laptops...
