yeah i updated the drivers. do you think it's just a matter of getting a new gpu and maybe a new cpu fan. would the fact that i've only got 1gb ram effect the temperature?

it still shouldn't run over 50 though surely and it's at about 90 most of the time.

thanks. i'll try those

hi, due to my computer occasionally cutting out i downloaded speedfan and the readings it's giving aren't good, i replaced the fan on my graphics card because it broke but that hasn't made any difference. this is what speedfan says: gpu: 74c system: 54c cpu: 10c aux: -1c hd0: 39c core 0: 31c core 1: 31c core: 75c ambient: 0c is there a program i can use to copy my complete system info from to post here? if not i'll just write what spec i know.
