    hello everybody
    i have a few questions about my processor
    my laptop is acer aspire 7520 G, 2GB ram, turion 64 x2 tl-58 cpu, 160GB hdd...and a 8400M G graphic card (not integrated)
    i think i have a cpu problems going on...
    its about cpu temperature...
    what is the normal operating temperature for this processor when simply browsing internet... my is currently 50 Celsius... and i remember that somewhere i read that its normal to be 30-40 degrees...
    another thing that’s strange, sometimes, when starting the laptop, right after POST, when the acer logo is displayed, and the bios bar is filling, it stops...
    first i taught, omg, that’s it, its dead...
    but i left it for like minute... it continued to boot normally...
    now it occurs almost every time when i turn it on...
    i flashed the bios to the latest ver (1.33...)...
    any help is welcome
    thank you :) :) :) :) :)

    I believe everything you mentioned is normal.

    Does seem normal indeed, had the bios problem though but i can't remember how i fixed it,

    Maybe if you feel your laptop is a little hotter, it would be worth cleaning the fan and vents etc.
