    I'm pretty certain the cooler will fit the board.

    Thanks guys & yes I am a dumb blonde!

    Hi,

    don't put yourself down, just because you are blonde, you can't be that dumb if you are willing to do this yourself, most dumb blondes would've got their dumb partener to have a go at it, and then probably ended up fixing it themselves, after he had messed it up. :rotfl: Have a go I'm sure you will manage. :rotfl:

    Here's a link might help.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the link, I'll give it a go.

    I don't beleive this, since ordering a new fan ''yesterday'' the computer has not shut down once it has been shutting down every couple of hours for the last week.

    tbh if you don't know what you're diong it may be best just to pay a computer shop a few quid to fit a new hsf as if you add too much or not enough thermal paste or don't seat the hsf right then you'll have problems.
