Other than coming off easier then that (because like I said, this isn't in perfect condition lol.) not really. Though I did have to unscrew the screen and everything. That's where the covers came loose I think. The hinges are still working perfectly fine. The only thing is I can see the wires...

I have a Dell Inspiron 1750. First time repairing a laptop so surely isn't perfect, but I got screen problem fixed (new wire :D) after a lot of struggle. Though now I'm having problems with the hinge covers. I can't really get them back on and am worrying if that is really going to be a problem...

Well...now the last time this happened was when it was idling... And sorry for replying in an old thread....

Well...at idle, my GPU is usually over 30C (CPU usually over or around 40C...CoreTemps in the 30C's.)...so heat might be the problem. Also GTA IV takes it up to 70C often also. Haven't checked the temps yet with HL2DM or Portal 2 yet. It would probably help a bit if I got some actual computer...

I got this case quite some time ago. But I might try the fan thing. Would it be possible to set the fan to a lower voltage through SpeedFan? And also I only ran FurMark for 60,000 Milliseconds so it didn't really get a lot of time to get any hotter. I am pretty sure much longer though it would...

Thanks. Results in the picture below. I don't know if I ran it high enough or long enough though. The usual settings I run games at is at least 30 FPS and at 1600x900. And I am wondering if I should try installing a case fan (which my system doesn't have.) (the reason I haven't done that yet is...

Reposted here as I think now it will fit better in here. ...it will just shut it down. I think it is my power supply as it often get very hot and along with that...Coolmax, off-brand company I believe. I also have 2 monitors. I have GTA IV set to medium settings and with Half-Life 2 Deathmatch...

Have you left any boot-able discs in the disc drive?

...it will just shut it down. I think it is my power supply as it often get very hot and along with that...Coolmax, off-brand company I believe. I also have 2 monitors. I have GTA IV set to medium settings and with Half-Life 2 Deathmatch, probably full settings. Also GTA IV's graphics glitch up...

Well, FRAPS isn't up to date...I may have to try that. I can't get the service pack at all...being as there isn't a service pack for Gamer.

I don't know, I'll have to check.

Something I may have figured out (though I do more hardware then software.). The BIOS update definitely helped. But after opening up FRAPS, the game was acting really weird (I mean, it normal for any game to lag a bit on any computer at some point)...and also being that FRAPS probably has to...

Yep. I'll add it. Also I have a screenshot of something flashing on and off on my taskbar. It looks media settings related. says the log file is too big. But I'll send the screenshot of the program blinking on and off. Researched it and found it is a problem with Mobile Partner. OUC Though I...

I have been noticing windows acting funny. It's probably time for a reinstall. I gotta go to bed after the reboot so yeah. I'll probably try playing other games tomorrow and see if it comes back more. Here are the results for sfc /scannow
