mine too. it was overheating and turning the fans on alot. and i could get almost burnt by the air coming out. Then I cleaned it out and realized that the first heatsink was completely blocked. I think it fried my ram too. getting errors with memtest now. need another stick. machine is much quieter now and hovers around 40 degrees give or take a few. I can't get it to go above 800Mhz though. it may be that I'm just not doing enough processor intensive stuff. Also I dont have enough ram to run lots of apps. - -- JT Morée PC Xperience, Inc. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFF9MBU1JwGi/ukQqERAlqJAJ9WBrrnLSj0m5ldyV8L9+dKe3unnwCeNPHn i6rurFOEVyWTDrGqrIoaqJQ= =3apK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ LinuxR3000 mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pcxperience.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linuxr3000 Wiki at http://prinsig.se/weekee/
