Sadly that didn't work when I had the same problem. All files had been replaced with new empty ones. All the best.

and is this a permanent solution?

Does that really help in all cases? I tried this once and all it did was slow down the CPU fan too!

If the computer slowed down gradually it could be due to too much installing an uninstalling of softwares, cluttering the registry.. This could be a likely cause, especially if its an old computer. Try some registry cleaner software, they're very effective.

Sorry, I read your post again. Seems like you have no compiler whatsoever. Try installing gcc from your Suse CD/DVD or download the installer (I think its an RPM). You need a compiler to compile a compiler here, but you have none.

Linux without gcc is as dead as a rock. Trust me you need it. Can you quote the error? Do you have gcc previously installed? btw I'm surprised you didn't have gcc already on your Suse box.

Ya he doesn't need full stops..

I really need to know this. Would it really have fried? I mean it would shutdown itself right? What are the chances you ended up with a burnt processor?

Dude JUST.BE.CAREFUL Take the advice everybody's offering as a warning. Try and understand what's being predicted IS possible. Do whatever you want, just keep your eyes open and your head straight.

I'm not sure its the same problem but one of my PCs always shows a STOP error on shutdown. This could be due to an IRQ conflict, although I'm myself unsure how to correct that. That could be one direction of thought. I'm positive mine isn't a hardware issue btw.

2800 RPM is not great at your temperatures... cleaning your heatsink might help.

It could be either the power supply or the motherboard. Try swapping the supply with another first.

Sometimes power supplies can't take enough load. I overheard my local computer builder say this once... but in that case the fans start and die. See if you can swap another power supply for a change and try with it too. Try cleaning everything before you get a new motherboard. Are you under...

I'd check the power supply if I were you. Something similar happened to me sometime back and it was the smps that had died.
