what kind of tim are you using, conductive or non-conductive? is it dripping onto the cpu? if cpu overheats when you wait for several hours and turn it on you should at least get to bios, it shouldn't heat up to 70c that fast.
44/40 seems fine. if you have an amd chip the threshold is 62c, if you have intel the threshold is a lot higher (believe its 100c? correct me if im wrong). but either way, you shouldn't have a problem. my guess is some component in your system is probably not stable. disable auto restart and if...
ya with my e6300, was able to run 2.6 fine, then it just pooped that one day and I tried to mess around with it for a while and eventually gave up and ran it at stock.
there are other reasons as well. for the work I do, mac is totally useless. my colleague has a macbook pro and it takes him 10x harder to do the same stuff I do and eventually he would just give up and move to the common pc (pentium 4) to get the job done faster.
the only thing i like about...
try a different thermal compound, and/or try reseating the cooler and see if it makes a difference. I don't like as5 that much, the tuniq tx2 i had seems to be much better.
that doesn't matter, you can still keep going with the numbers and eventually it'll ask you to continue or to stop. basically overflow = really really really large number
btw, using virtual machine on w7, I can only do max 40000 before it craps out. I set 512mb of ram available, no drivers...
you'll def save money building a system yourself. check newegg.ca and ncix. you should be able to pull together 500w psu (antec trupower new 550w, 40 AR), athlon x4 or better w/ am3 mb ($200), simple case ($30), 500gb hdd ($50), 4gb ddr3 1600 ($105) and dvd-rw (25) for $450. this system will be...
does the ram boot with lower voltage (1.5v)? the kingston rams i have and the corsair xms ones i installed for a friend both recommended 1.65v but they boot absolutely without a problem at 1.5v, in fact the xms is running at 1.4v without a single problem.
see if you can find screws to open the case up, if you can then you can take out the hdd and plug it into your desktop via sata connectors and backup all your files that way.
