    Hi all,

    I have XPS Studio 1640 with P8600 CPU. I am trying to get Q9000 CPU running.

    If I keep notebook open and additionally cooled all works fine, or otherwise I get all kind of BSODs...

    - Tried ArticSilver Ceramique paste, but not solving heat issue.
    - About to try Cool Laboratory Liquid MetalPad...

    Is there something I can improve cooling of cpu, can I order better cooling fan, pipes or something ??? How to keep fan always on ?
