Type of memory and overheating.
5 Answers
How do i find out what to buy? i have an AMD athlon processor.
Also is there anything you can do to sort this overheating in hot weather problem. It's ok today but yesterday my pc was unusuable. just kept bsoding. I'm sure I do actually need more memory too though. I do seem to expect alot from my pc and it often crashes (even when not hot) when I use music match or photoshop. Amazingly enough it's been fine with google earth.

Overheating is counteracted by fans & heatsinks and ensuring an adequate airflow.
With regard to CPU overheating. Have you got Nero installed, by any chance? If so, check your CPU usage. My CPU was running at 100% until I discovered I had an issue with Nero. I've since encountered other users with the same problem. Check your CPU usage anyway. Excessive usage will cause overheating and crashing. Mine normally runs between 1% and 15%
