You might want to try out a laptop cooler, with a built in fan. See if that takes care of it. _________________________ WyldRyde IRC Network Steve Mermelstein Root Admin #!/usr/bin/geek My Amazon.com Wishlist Please no PMs. Please post to a topic instead so your question(s) may benefit others.

The wires have become defective You need to check out if it's overheating first, so get a laptop cooler, if that doesn't solve the problem, take the laptop in to a repair shop. It must be a hardware issue then. _________________________ Founder of #techman, #advertising, and #startrek SOP in #vistaops, #ryanbecker, and #techhelper AOP in #GeniusBar, #sam-ops, #vista, and #icomputer HOP in #MRA, #samf, and #yertalert VOP in #buracelive, #Chills, #Chris, #computertech, #iPhone, and #Karol
