they don't tell you to where anti-static wristbands when fiddling inside PC cases for nothing!

They also tell us to turn off the power - doesn't mean we take any notice :rotfl:

Have download software to monitor laptop temperature, and indeed the laptop temperature was 70 degrees before the last shutdown, this i have been told is way to hot so looks like a cooler is the answer. My daughter seems to think ordinary surfin seems to be fine the temp stays low but when she uses MSN Messenger with her cam the temp seems to shoot up.Anyway thanks for all your suggestions lets hope it is a temp problem as i had visions of a new laptop she can ill afford.
