Spring cleaning!
Your fan it pulls in air for cooling and then blows it out.
And, along with that air comes dust.
To clean:
- Unplug the case and open it up
- Using a can of compressed air (available at your local office supply store), blow the dust out of the computer
- Or use your vacuum cleaner in the blow out mode
New computers watch the CPU's temperature and have thermal cutoffs — if the CPU gets too hot, the computer will shut down without warning!
Blow the dust out of the power supply, too.
Hint: take the computer outside to blow it out.
Do not touch the componets with the vacuum cleaner, just blow out the dust!
