[Gllug] How to prove a computer is overheating.

re: dick-less PC's freezing on a regular basis

I personally would doubt that an office temperature of a mere 24C was the
cause of your problem,  but I guess the only way to find out would be
to boot up two at the same time - one in a cool environment and one in the
normal environment and see how they run.  If the one in the warmer environment
reliably freezes and the cooler one doesn't at all,  then I would think that its
a fair indicator that temp. is endeed your problem.

You could try buying a cheap digital thermometer with an 'outdoor' sensor on a
lead from Maplin's (if that word is still now allowable !!) and sticking the
sensor inside the case near the CPU to see what the internal temperature is
like.
