Hi all,
Lissie, you may not need a new computer. I'd first see if your
computer store/person can replace the fan! That's an easy do. Then,
there is some gunk you put in the computer to help to lessen the heat.
My guru replaced the gunk for my XP computer, and now it's working
well. I'm not a techie, so can't tell you what the thing's called, but
it comes in a tube and goes near the heat sink. My guru told me that
mine was all dried out and he actually had to peel it away from the
computer before replacing it with new.
I'd replace the fan first thing! That, as I say is an easy do. The
rest of your data can be backed up to an external drive or whatever.
Then, if you have to get a new 'puter, you can do that and still have
your data intact.
Ann P.
