    OK - thats quite high: -

    what are you using to measure it ?
    Is that at idle ( i.e. nothing running )

    That might be whats causing the crashes - if the CPU is hot already, then the extra effort maybe tipping it over the edge...

    Glad you got it sorted - so did you clean the fan or install a new one ?

    I use a free utility called SpeedFan. It gives temperatures, fan speeds and voltages.

    ok - assuming that the C & D drives are partitions on the same physical hard drive:-

    I use a utility called Partition Manager by Paragon Software. This link will take you to a page where the software can be downloaded. Half way down the page is a link to a Paragon page where the software can be registered.

    I registered mine free of charge and have full functionality. It was a while ago though, so can't guarantee the links still work. ( PS: Ignore the reference to "time limited demo" - there is no time limit once registered )

    It's not the easiest software to use, but read the help files and it should do the trick.
