It's a AMD Athlon XP 1500+ with a MSI motherboard. I have a GeForce 4 Ti graphics card and I use WinXP Home.

Thanks.

Okey, I think that I will install a new fan then. Depends on what you answer on my question later on

That temperature is when I only surf with the comp (and doing ohter small things, like MSN ets. etc.). I haven't checked the temp when I play games because my temperature and fan program is pretty new (downloaded yesterday). I play games pretty much so I guess I should check.

Nope.
New question: Can the comp show a Blue Screen when it becomes too hot? I get them now and then and now when I think about it - it has always been a warm day and I get it almost only on summers. It also happens more often when I am watching TV = one more card in the computer is working.
Thanks.
