This is the card that I am referring to: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16814133204

48-50° C idle
60-64° C right after or while playing Lost Planet for about 40 minutes

The reason I use those numbers are because those are the maximum and minimum values I read on the nTune monitor when Idle and under load.

I currently have 6 fan excluding processor fan installed: two on the side panel blowing in; one in the front blowing in; two on the top blowing out; and one in the back blowing out. They're all 120mm fans. I also have a PCI graphics card cooling fan.

I have a massive virus that opens internet explorer all the time, and i do plan on reformatting my hard drive but until I get the windows CD I have to deal with it.

I was wondering if there was anyway i could just delete internet explorer, or at least keep the process blocked (I use firefox).

By the way I do have anti virus software, and it is just failing at everything.

alrighty i got (2) 120mm fans,and a 80mm fan.my CPU does'nt have a built in fan so i just placed one of the 120mm Fans next to the cpu heatsink so that it blows air to the back of my case,where the next 120mm fan sucks the air out.i have a micro BTX case so it's small.i took off my cpu heatsink (big mistake) i know,to see if i can clean up the dust.but then it hit me,i had removed the thermal paste.my cpu normally hung around 85-95 F when idle (before i took out the heatsink).and around 100-105 F when under load.but now since i took off the heatsink the idle temp rose to 100F and under load around 115 F (max).did my cpu get hotter because of the thermal paste that was taken off?i put the heatsink back.im planning on getting a new heatsink with a built-in fan from newegg.

I know for sure that it's short-circuited.
Milk was spilled on it.
It's a IBM ThinkPad T50 (i think)!
What should I do? And how much will it cost?
