Its new motherboard
G41M-VS3 R2.0
Processor P4 Prescott 541 3Ghz - Old
Memory DDR 3 1333 2GB - New
500GB sata HDD WD Caviar Blue - New
IDE Maxtor HDD 70GB - Old
GPU Gainward 9500GT 1GB Memory - New
PSU ATX- 500W P4 - 5 months old
New Cooler
I turn on the pc go in bios and temperature goes from 37C to
73C rapidly in 1 minute idk if its the CPU but it was working
on older motherboard and on the asrock site says in CPU support
for this motherboard that i can use this kind of processor . One friend
sugested it could be thermal grease bc i dont have it on my CPU
its very thin layer whats left, could that be it?
