CF-74ECBAXBM HELP!!!

#1 Post by Rob »

I have a 2.0 CF-74 touch that got returned to me because it was shutting down. I've determined (or I hope I've determined lol) that it is a heating issue. Any experience with this issue on the 74's??

I've tried a hundred different types of RAM + I removed the battery, combo drive, & hard drive to no avail...

I took it apart and can't figure out anything... I let it sit over the weekend and got it to post once and now, to no avail it won't post again :(

HELP!!!!!!!!!!! :damnit:

On one of the 51's I got from Buybest15 would only run about 10 minutes at best, would shut down. Come to find out there was so much crap in it that it was not blowing the heat out or sucking the cool in. The fan was moving but not very fast so I it out and blew the fan and the case out. Not sure where it was being used but it was full of crap and runs great now.
I would blow it out and put a fresh coat of Artic silver 5 on the cpu/heat sink for starters.
