Any one has any ideas or has some that just happens to be laying around? Lol! Seriously I really think this may be my problem! Awards

BTW Dean if you have never done this before be very careful and research it before attempting this. Lots of good YouTube Vids on this. BigPapaDean 1 Awards

FOLLOW THAT LINK ABOVE AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS ON VIDEO Ive done the same thing.Local retail stores will not have cpu paste and may only have silicone.Do not use silicone.Just buy the correct stuff in a small tube that will Last 2 lifetimeS considering you just use the size of a pea every application which is seldom.Shut down everything and cleanup surfaces with qtip and alcohol then apply and carefully smear on cpu surface and put back together.
