SomeGuy · 06-14-2002, 10:31 AM

Okay I was sending a pm and all of a sudden everything that was around where you type everything had a different font then normal.(or like other stuff like people's names on who started topics,name of topics,and other stuff has changed too)Did I just do something bad or did somebody change the font of the everything?

Hm, it sounds like a browser problem to me, SomeGuy. Check your settings, perhaps?

Hope it works out!

In my experience, this sort of thing usually means that your processor is begging to overheat ie. your computer has been on too long without rest. Turn it off for a little while so it can cool down.

But if your system ever does have an internal problem you might not know or realize untill you restart it so it can do it`s "post" and boot check etc etc. I think it is recommended to shut down and re-start once a month minimum. I read that somewhere.

Happened to my old machine. If the fonts look bigger, and BOLD, your system is about to be out of memory. Does this happen with other programs too? Anyway, a reboot could fix this--if this is the problem!

Seems to me like I remember reading someting about: You should shut down completely once every 52 hours for a minimum of of 15 minutes. this helps your fan cool down and hence your system cools down. Give it a rest [img]smile.gif[/img] Your system needs a break too [img]smile.gif[/img]

Of course your fan could be worn out and the CPU needs more time to cool off. If the problem persists try downlaoding Sisoft Sandra from www.tucows.com and it will tell you an amazing amount of info about your system,even how fast of a cpu your motherboard will handle, and lots more [img]smile.gif[/img]

Look in your BIOS at the system voltages and temperatures. You can post it back here if there seems to be anything odd about it. We'd be happy to help you out [img]smile.gif[/img]
