I am using Win XP Home/SP2. I have no virus checkers running. Every 8-12 min
XP will lock up requiring a manual re-boot - Alt-Ctrl-Del does nothing. The
mouse pointer freezes on-screen at that point and it is a total lockup. I
have ran AdWare, Spybot, SpySearch, deleted all cookies, emptied all Temp
folders and Recycle Bin. Computer is cool to touch as is exhausted air from
fan (it has 6 fans). Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

... My other system has a nice Copper fin system on the Northbridge but without a fan it just radiates the heat into the case..but with the addition of a specific fan I dropped the temps about 8 degrees with the fan blowing across those copper fins and pushing the hot air towards the rear exhaust fan.Sometimes one needs to be a little creative in their cooling. ...
