Had to open her up again and clean out the video card. I realised that I had put absolutely heaps too much arctic silver on it last time around. So this time, I have redone the thermal paste with a more moderate amount, and tightened the screws a bit harder. I also cleared out a large chunk of dust that had gathered in the heatsink/fan of the graphics card.
I wonder how much longer this graphics card has got to go? I want a new beepy diary phone, but I think I _need_ a new desktop pc replacement sooner than that. Alternatively, I could buy a chunky laptop, but you dont get many upgrade options...
