I've got a 3-yo Siemens Amilo laptop that shuts down fairly often.

You mean it powers off all by itself?  Or hangs/crashes?

I assume you've checked the BIOS settings for power management, and
that it is all disabled?

Have you tried monitoring the CPU temperature in
/proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM/temperature?

Do the fans actually turn on?  Have you tried blowing them out?
