My boxed AMD 2100+ was giving me all kind of problems last week playing starcraft brood wars hosting over the internet. Only my step-son was having problems down loading new linix stuff,
so I was looking, I thought at a bad router . Wrong but I have won a used router switch on ebay is coming & will replace my two seperate hub & router. Anyways I did notice my CPU was running at 145 degrees after playing starcraft. So I cleaned my CPU not that dirty, chipset & video H/S's & fans. Now the game works perfect. The puzzle was the CPU was not that dirty, the fan is working, I have artic silver already installed & I had slowed down the performace back to normal in CMOS setup & that did not help at all. The CPU & fan in the last cleaning was much more dirty with no errors. I just found out yesterday a friend now has the same CPU & was given a beefier fan to fix a problem he was having. So anyways I should get a better fan for my system. I would upgrade the H/S but I plan on an AMD 64 of some kind next summer or fall.
