Another Overheating Issue I think!Follow

#1 Jun 24 2008 at 6:23 PM Rating: Decent
I am right now having serious issues while playing WoW. I kept getting a 132 error message. So I looked up the error message and found out that it could be the comp overheating. I replaced the fan because it was making an awful racket and that fixed it for a bit. My friend suggested that I put some new thermal paste on while I was at it. So I put the new paste on and the problem starts up again. But the only time it ever seems to shut down is when I am in Shatt, flying in the Outlands(either fp or flying mount), and when I do Isle quest. Before my comp locks up it always gets super laggy and then locks up. Maybe someone out there could help me as I am still getting that damned 132 message. Sidenote when I replaced the fan it worked great, and a few days later I replaced the paste and then the problems started again. Could it be possible that I added too much paste? Not enough? Any help would be appreciated and if you need clarification let me know please!

Absolutely. People unfamiliar with it usually use way too much. Anything more than what one normal grain of rice looks like is too much. Using too little is pretty tough to do.

I hope you cleaned the thermal paste that was left by the old HSF on the CPU before you applied the new stuff. New + old = bad juju.
