yeah ,like i said that ram should work ,get another 512 for 1 gb ,will make nice difference but you still have heating problem to work out ,before i would spend any money .

try the cool pad too, i have one for my laptop. it's an antec ($20 best buy) and it works fine. you can find cool pads anywhere laptops are sold.

hello. i was wondering if anyone could help me figure out why my laptop fan runs nonstop after startup. it usually takes a few minutes after starting it up, and then it continously runs until i get irritated and shut it down. also, the bottom of my laptop gets VERY hot. to the point where i cant even touch it, and i am scared to leave it on because it gets SOO hot! the keys also get pretty hot, but no where near as hot as the bottom of the laptop. its only a year old, so i dont know what could be wrong with it. i havent even really used it but a handful of times in the past several months and thats because it gets too hot and i dont know whats wrong with the fan.

i just downloaded hijack this, if anyone can help me out, i will post the log.

thankyou sooo much in advance!!!! --- danielle
