A hectic day

Did an operation today to settle my rig's overheating problem. Decided to remove the processor heat sink and processor to reapply thermal paste and reseat them properly. The processor temperature dropped drastically to around 67 deg Celsius from almost 100 earlier.
Apparently one of the pins of the heatsink fan was not properly seated and the contact between the heatsink and processor was not good. To hell with Intel's 775 heatsink pins...

Received an email today from Cary in reply to my earlier email.

Siew Kiat asked for advice to compress pictures. She has indeed thrown herself into her school blog and puttin more gadgets into it. Pretty amazing for someone who picked up computer stuff at a later age.
