Yeah - was a heating problem. Cleaned out the inside of my PC yesterday, and couldn't believe all the dust and things that gathered inside. Seems to be working peachy keen now. Thanks

At least once a year, even in a well-cleaned area. Even in the cleanest of homes, quite a bit of dust and fuzz will gather inside a PC case. Look at the outside the exhaust fan: If there is stuff collected on 1/3 or more of the visible housing, you've already waited too long.
