MtK Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Hi,I don't know if it's a heat related issue, but every now & then a large amount of Junk gets in my WinMail.Whenever I try to delete those mails, the PC turns off!Whenever the PC starts the fan works extra-hours until System is fully loaded...This is not a related issue - this problem is on another PC.
nitroshift Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Looks like a cooling issue to me (although I might be wrong). Did you check the temperatures in BIOS after a turn off as you stated?

Did you check the temperatures in BIOS after a turn off as you stated?CPU temperature in BIOS is 73c.I have ASUS Probe which monitors the same temperature at startup.when I test the Junk deletion in WinMail the temperature is below 60c, but suddenly rises...I've recently cleaned up the CPU fan & heat-sink with a vacuum cleaner, but it didn't make any difference (that's why I decided to post)...any ideas how to solve this?
nitroshift Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 73 centigrade is a bit too high... Try to replace the thermal grease between the CPU and its cooler.

Try to replace the thermal grease between the CPU and its cooler.73 is the peak of course, the CPU does cool of if the PC doesn't shut down.btw, I've managed to move all JunkMail to the Deleted Items (inside WinMail).of course if I try to close WinMail, maintainance will try to delete them all, & it will crash...what I tried to do is to delete them manually, but:
