Sorry for the OT post, but I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I accidentally bought a 333Mhz XP 3000+ rather than a 400Mhz one. The 400Mhz XP2900+ I have in another front end runs HDTV just fine, but the 333Mhz XP 3000+ needs XvMC to play HDTV, which can be flaky. I happen to have an extra 400Mhz XP2900+ in another computer that I can swap, but I have never done this before.
Basically, what I want to know, or want a pointer to another forum, is notes on removing a processor from one computer without damaging, cleaning the thermal paste off it and the heat sinks, and putting it in another. I am especially worried about cleaning the thermal grease off the processors and heat sinks. Sorry - but until I decided to install a MythTV system in my new house, I never built my own computers. Any help would be appreciated. Rob _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
