Phew... That was a bit like Mickey Mouse as the sorceress’s apprentice in Fantasia!! Has the flood subsided? Dan has been having a lot of problems with the list software in the past year, and I guess just hasn't had the time or incentive to do the upgrade he's mentioned to address the problem of SPAM clogging up the server. And again, maybe we ought to get together a campaign of writing Dan at Daniel(at)basiclink.com and offer him some encouragement and support for getting the new server software set up. Anyone have experience in doing something like that might be able to give Dan some assistance in setting things up? I did suggest that to Dan. --- David Chien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2004 19:57:34 -0700 (PDT) > From: David Chien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [LIB] Win98/70CT audio playback: A lost > cause? > > If it does shut down, it must be a thermal issue. > Maybe you have to disassemble it and regrease > the heatsink and set it in properly? > > Or maybe just unlucky and have a Libretto that has > thermal issues? Well the worst shutdowns were while driving through deserts for days at 112 degrees F. with the 70 playing MP3s and mapping with a GPS. For the most part in the 3-4 years I’ve had it it’s been fine. But I’m wondering if there might be cumulative damage to the CPU after a number of such thermal shutdowns. I did have the heat sync off years back when Neil had me solder some fuse wire across a blown fuse to get the monitor working again. As I recall, the sticky thing that acted as a heat sync was damaged separating from the CPU. And I was quite sparing in how much heat sync grease I applied when reassembling having read warnings that sometimes too much can be worse than too little. It there a rule for just how much should be applied? I could go in and re-grease things. Matt __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
