Hi Konrad,
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Few things I learned in Texas:
- add some more heatsink grease to the heatpipe connected to the CPU
"Heatsink pipe"? I'm not quite sure what that is, unless it's just the heatsink. I haven't pulled a MB in sometime, and then only in my L50 & L70, not the L100. And I really hadn't even thought about checking with the manual on the procedure until you mentioned this. I wonder if there might any special considerations to be aware of before I proceed.
- make sure that the upper PCMCIA port is open if there is extended disk activity (like for editing video) - make sure that all screws are tight for better heat transfer, especially undek the ketboard - blow air on the L100 with a fan or if too hot, right into the PCMCIA slot with an aquarium aerator. I am planning to use a shell of a PCMCIA card to make some adapter for that.
Okay... then in Texas, you're dealing with the heat from the ambient air temperature that the system will be exposed to just as I will be here in Florida. Had you clocked up to 266? I wonder if there would be sufficiently less less heat generated at 233 to make a better option at some point.
Has anyone done the modification to 233? It looks like it may actually entail de-soldering a component? Xin's website doesn't get into just what's involved. David's site just says:
"Attach BF1 (pin 185) and BF2 (pin 184) to Vcc (positive voltage/Vcc)."
But the photo on Xin's site shows 2 Xs which I assume means breaking 2 connections, and connecting another set of solder points.
I guess I'll find out when I'm in there. But I'd better hit Radio Shack and pick up some heastsink grease before I start.
Thanks Konrad.
Matt
