| Spontaneou System Death? updates: not that i know of. but there was this alert icon in my tray that i could not click on. Graphics Card is a Navida GeForce 9650m GT, w/ 1Gb ram The build was from the factory. Dust: possible. There is a fan that moves air to the right side, it doesn't move it down. BUT there are 3 grills on the bottom. When all of these happened though the computer was propped up with a folded up fabric pace mat, wasnt covering the ENTIRE grill, but a little bit. But i've only had it for a month... if it takes that short of a time for dust to accumulate that bad... I had a compaq and it never had that problem. OS: the HELL im going to do that right now. Plus i dont have the vista disk. I havent looked at all the disks i have recently |
