Overheating Problem

Ahh crap!!! I just overheated playing CS:S.

it dead

Maybe if your computer wasn't running in a Laundry Basket on the floor and you had it in a case!

Nahh, I figured it out. Somehow my VCORE climbed back up to 1.5volts. I lowered it again

Do it in the bios, not that speedtune crapware.

But that doesn't change the fact that you have a system running in a laundry basket! I would have at least used an old wine cooler.

I dont drink

no fun!

A kid your age saying he/she doesn't drink is like Angelina Jolie saying that she's an abstaining virgin.





.... or a NJ politician saying he's not a crook.

lol well put

i just checked my system with speedfan and it is showing 102 c
showing 0 fan speedbut i can hear them going at about 50% is it reading worng?
would a password on the bios stop it form looking?
system: AMD64 2800+ laptop

cowkiller, Your 2800 seems to misread a lot, have you spoken to AMD?
The computer shuts off at 70º

lol yes my computer dose miss read alot but i think it is the program cose it said the fan speed was 0 and i could hear the fans at about 50% speed
anyother programs that i could try

my friends computer keeps shutting down as well...
i know exactly why it does it, 3 capacitors on his mobo are blown to hell [pardonne mon francais] and his proc keeps going to 120 degrees [centigrade!!!!!!]
however, this older guy who gets him free parts keeps saying its the psu and i dont want to start anything but in my mind i was like "I would like to drive a 3 inch nail into your eye using an airgun!"
i know that the psu is crappy and that it does short out, but thats not the reason the compy is shutting down. but whatever, he'll get a new kickass computer, screw it over in a week [likes to OC with no proper cooling, built it himself..wires are everywhere, got one of those transformers cases and its got crappy airflow] and ill be back telling him where he went wrong...
its all good

mine is not showing any problems at all just reading temp worng lol
