    That good to hear :)
    What thermal paste did you use ? Was it easy enough to do ?
    If you used some online guide outside the forums it'll be great if you share it here ;)

    i couldnt find a manual for it....so i did it by myself.The laptop must be dissasembled almost completly.....all the screws that are under,take the keyboard off,the dvdr off,the hd,remove screws under the keyboard....and 1 screw under the upper plastic (that is the worst).Its doable,but the laptop plastics break easy,be carefull.I used a common thermal paste i had.No problems with temp. everything worked great from the first boot.

    Does anybody know where to get the Aspire 3000-5000 service manual? I can't find the manuals anywhere, and I've been looking for days. I have a T64 MT37 that I want to install in my 3003LCI, but I'm not all that familiar with notebook disassembly. I'd like to have some guidance rather than mess this up.
