Well, I'll call Toshiba to see if they know of any problems with this notebook and Windows 7. If Windows 7 is the problem I'm going to downgrade again even though I do prefer Windows 7, but I like to be able to play games without it shutting down due to it getting too hot.

Well if it's shutting down due to overheating, something is definitely wrong....

And from a woman's point of view, all I could think about was what kind of control undergarments you would have to wear under that dress to have that smooth line, no matter how skinny you are!

Yes, with Vista I could play Sims 3 without a problem, although the computer did get warm it didn't get too hot.

The problem is that from October until the end of March I mainly use my notebook for watch dvd's and surfing the web in bed. From April until the end of September I take it with me when I'm housesitting for friends and family. I know that last summer I didn't have any problems and IIRC it didn't get this warm when surfing the web. The only thing that has changed is that I installed Windows 7 (it has been standing on my bedtable all winter). Because I don't know if I had any overheating problems between October and when I installed Windows 7 I can't be sure if it's the heatsink or Windows 7.

The Intel chipset utility doesn't want to install because my system doesn't meet the minimal requirements. So I'm calling Toshiba on Monday to see what they have to say.

On a happier note; I'm planning what I'm going to do during my trip to Birmingham. If anyone has any suggestions of things I can do in Birmingham and Coventry (UK) I would like to hear them!

Hm, actually I think that would be easier, because I don't have that many different types of underpants.

I'm so glad I'm not at home right now!

Today is Queen's Day and around the corner from our house there's a stage where not so good bands play very loud.

I just read that the city council has send a message to various media asking people not to go to the "square" (a big word imho) around the corner from my house because it's already very busy. Which isn't strange since it's a crossroad between two other stages (one very big one), a parking garage and a pop venue so there aren't only people there to watch the music but also a lot of people going from one point to another in the city centre.

Anyway I'm doing another happy dance before enjoying the peace and quiet again.

Sitting at work wasting my time. Our town has a festival going on and I had quite a few people asking if I'll open today (I normally take Sundays off). Needless to say I'm here, but not one single potential client anywhere in sight.
