I agree though, you have asked the same questions a lot in different threads. I don't mind though haha. More posts for me

Shouldn't be. If anything it should work better if you don't use it :P Are you accidentally applying pressure on the underside of it? Might be caught on something. Thats all i can think.

Well... i can only say do not fear it. Learn from your mistakes. Buy a book on how to build a computer or just look up guides (of which there are thousands on the internet) and if you have any problems come back here :)

I never applied thermal paste and went with the pad that came with my cpu. I want to apply some. Which is the best type? I have an air (fan) cooled computer and a 2.66GHz core 2 duo. How would i go about doing it? Would i take the pad currently there off?

I do get excited about them. Thinking about the top quality stuff I'll only be able to buy 6 years after its released.

Wow! Think I just got properly excited for the first time in my life. Gonna get me one of those. Thanks

haha, ok. What do you mean it wont recognise it? Is there a light on the transformer? or on the laptop? Try to see how far the power gets from the wall.

Overheating? Playing games will make the computer work more and therefore overheat.

Also... any sounds? Unusual lights? Errors? Try taking out any devices plugged in I think i've posted a bit much in this thread :P

Haha... cool, thanks. I thought you got them from your underground l33t haxor group :P and wouldn't give them up. thanks though

Do you have any boot cds handy?

You say randomly, so you're not doing anything unusual at the time? Theres no pattern to when it turns off? Could be a virus... maybe.

If its not power related, could also be overheating. Have you ever cleaned it? I'd recommend cleaning the fans and vents... even if its not the problem just to keep the performance up.

Power and battery? They ok? Any visible signs of problems (no lights)?

oh, sorry haha let me google it for you

I know its a long shot. But i have ati catalyst control center and there's a few weird fun things mine can do. I dont know any of the advanced stuff and this is pretty much a pure guess but might be worth it. If all else fails, invent b&w glasses that filter out colours

So... if you're going to put a nice little lcd display on the front of your computer... what is it? A fan controller? A thermometer? Anything? What can you get? Something that would make a :mad: turn :eek:. Anything? by the way... i'm talking about stuff to put in your drive bays at the front

Theres lots of software available to do it. Not sure how good the packages are. Google's your friend ;)

WOW!!! thats cool

haha, thank you sg1. Forgot to say its free :P
