Almost guaranteed overheating problem.

Get some compressed air and take your case apart.

There was MASSIVE amounts of dust when I checked the fans at lunch. Both fans are in working order, though my computer is close to my baseboard heating... but thats never ever been an issue previously.

the dust build up could be causing the overheating prob

Actually we have to find the root of the problem as to why it's overheating first (that's why we need the specs) in order to stop it from overheating. Either way...it never hurts to clean ur sys out so hop to it asap hehehehee

Thumbs up Need some help eh

Jamie, if you need to go the absolute last resort you can bring it to my place and re-install to Server 2003. It's a faster more stable version of XP, a good upgrade. Sounds like you have been checking out too much porn yall. Nate.

It's prolly not an overheating problem. I had the same problem my self, the fan was fine, the processor temp was good, the memory was scanned and checked. It turned out to be the power supply, and such issues tend to be quite common.

So don't forget to let us know if you resolved the issue. Otherwise, we can review the specs and troubleshoot this way cuz there can be many variables of why it overheats

One variable could be:
That the ps is not strong enuf for the number of aps you have running in the background now

but a better inspection of your specs will draw a more precise conclusion

So let us know

Its a virus...stop looking at cheap porn online that fucks up the registry keys. It you run any diognostic programs they automatically shut down because thats what the virus does...therefore you cant get rid of it. I had to system restore my whole computer and lost everything and i had to do it twice to kill it...lol

Its a worm that makes you computer shutdown and on and in sleep mode sometimes. Its a fucking pisser.
