    Solving a little "DVD crashing" trouble I had...

    After watching DVD's for about 30 minutes, my system would just freeze - everything would stop.
    So, to cover all my options, I 'borrowed' an old K6-300 CPU fan out of my brothers system and found that the screws sat perfectly in between the fins of my G400. So i turned on and ran the same DVD title that had been freezing - 4 times without a glitch!!
    I was no doubt chuffed with this discovery, and subsiquently comendeered the fan for a bit longer!! (he never used his PC anyway!)

    Anyway, for anyone who has had similar trouble, try looking to see if your G400 has a decent amount of air running past it or it could mean that it's getting a bit warm and needs some extra-curricular cooling!
