Some Sony machines do tend to run a little hot. <BR /><BR />You can download CPU temperature monitors from the web to keep an eye on things. Also, make sure the fans haven't built up a layer of dust as this can affect the cooling.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 16 Jun 2005 16:38:15 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/built-in-wireless-on-s3hp/m-p/104130#M109043 Twisted-Rizla 2005-06-16T16:38:15Z Re: BUILT-IN WIRELESS ON S3HP https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/built-in-wireless-on-s3hp/m-p/104131#M109044 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>many thanks for your prompt reply - I've only had it 2 weeks so should not be full of dust yet!<BR />I guess I just live with it!<BR />thanks again<BR />Dave w<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 16 Jun 2005 16:49:20 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/built-in-wireless-on-s3hp/m-p/104131#M109044 dwell 2005-06-16T16:49:20Z Re: BUILT-IN WIRELESS ON S3HP https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/built-in-wireless-on-s3hp/m-p/104132#M109045 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Mobilemeter is a really good tempreture tool for VAIO<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 16 Jun 2005 18:59:39 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/built-in-wireless-on-s3hp/m-p/104132#M109045 kee-lo_ 2005-06-16T18:59:39Z
