On idle, the CPU temp (not the core temps) is pretty low, yet it almost doubles under stress - that's still okay, right?Finray wrote:

On a side note, my NorthBridge runs so hot it starts to burn after a few seconds.
so 35 degrees idle/70 degrees full load? Yeah that's about average and well below excessive limits.alexb wrote:

Task manager is functioning, as well as safe mode. What should I do? I could just reformat but I'm asking for a simpler solution. sorry for bothering you

ps its running vista.
in taskmgr press "new task/new process" (basically the RUN command)
enter explorer.exe
does it work or stop working instantly?
Step 2:
In safe mode, try a system restore
Step 3:
In safe mode, remove all 3rd party software, starting with that you recently installed
Step 4:
insert vista disc and try "repair windows"
Step 5:
format and reinstall

Nomatter how hard you work you'll allways want something you can't afford.
Might aswell make by on social support, as long as I can afford a PC, rent and a scrapper of a car I can't see why anything else is worth having a dreadfull job you hate every hour off....

Haha, that's the voice of a dilettante talking. Once you get into /real/ IT and get out of helping your mother figure out how to print a PDF or attach a document to an e-mail, then this approach will yield you a whole lot less success without a firm understanding of basic theory. You can scoff at it now, but when you get out into the real world, and you notice how your co-workers get things done twice as fast as you because you're flying by the seat of your pants, then you'll be scrambling to learn what your diploma says you're already supposed to know before you find yourself out of a job.FloppY_ wrote:

Seriously, FloppY_, man the fuck up. That attitude of yours will be a part of the past in a couple of years, and the future after that will be decided by what you do now. If your future self could travel back in time, he'd kick you swiftly in the balls and tell you to stop being a bitch.

I can't see why I'd bother with working hard on an education for a job I don't give a rats ass about... I'd fucking hate myself more than I do now...

Any "5 year old" can install software on a computer and plug one end of a cable into a switch, and another end of a cable into a NIC, too. You're at the bottom of the barrel, FloppY_, and you're giving up before you get to even have sight of the interesting and challenging parts of the industry for which you're educating yourself.FloppY_ wrote:

I sprung for IT Supporter because I didn't have the five and a half years for datatekniker. Let me assure you that the diploma means nothing. Absolutely nothing. What matters is the apprenticeship that you get, and the people you know. After my grundforloeb, I went to work with an ISP. In the two years I spent as an apprentice before being hired full time, I designed nationwide 10Gbps backbones, designed, purchased and deployed millions of dollars worth of equipment, managed network access for 70,000 Internet, IPTV and VoIP customers, designed network and network service infrastructures scalable to hundreds of thousands of users, went on business trips to the U.S., Germany, Sweden and the U.K., and worked up a huge network of contacts in the industry that could land me any kind of job I wanted in IT. That's networking, and that might not be you. I had classmates who went to work for IBM and Sun Microsystems and went in a different direction but had equally exciting careers. Whichever you'd choose, it's a far cry from sitting in a dull classroom making two routers talk to each other, or writing a paper on the PCI bus. It's where you are, and the people you know.
When you're on campus, you're surrounded by people who're content to do small office IT, supporting a dozen users and their computers and e-mail systems. You're surrounded by people who lack ambition to a sickening degree, people who'll do everything to project the dreary reality that they find themselves in on to everyone else so that they don't feel alone in their misery. You either aim above that, or you seek out another profession. Never settle for anything less than you're comfortable with in IT.
