Very high gpu temperatures, please help me :(?
Ok, so i have a benq s42 laptop with an NVIDIA 9600m gt. The temperatures are SO high!! For example, it idles at 80c and when i play the sims 3 with everything on medium the temps hit 100-110!! O.O" . Someone told me to change the fan speed. i downloaded rivatuner and i couldn't change the speed, used speedfan and also couldn't change the speed, i couldn't even change it using nvidia control panel!! i tried removing the dust from my gpu by vacuuming the vents, also nothing happened. i tried using a notebook cooler, the temperature only decreased by none to 5 degrees ~__~ !! PLEASE HELP!! i don't want my laptop to die!! :@@ If this helps, these are my specs: Intel core 2 duo 2.4ghz, 3m cache (p8600 i think) 3gb ddr2 ram nvidia geforce 9600m gt with 256mb gddr3

Unallocated Harddrive?
Unallocated Harddrive?
My whole harddrive become unallocated but the funny thing I can run Ubuntu Linux under demo mode. I can see from the Gparted Partition Manager the whole harddrive is unallocated. I used to have 4 partitions, the C drive is Windows XP and the rest D, E, F drive are just data. I would like to restore the partitions as used to but I am afraid if I create new partition table, it will erase all the partition and I lost all data. Perhaps anyone can help me and do have good suggestion? O yes, my DVD-ROM is also not working and I run this on laptop Benq. Thank you. Thanks for the replies. Do you think I can recover the files if I replace the HDD now into slave and put a new one as master? Will I be able to read the slave drive and see all partitions? Thanks.

if you create a new partition table it will be new and blank with no data. if Gparted is not seeing it something went wrong. Did you not mess around with the The ubuntu installation disk and somehow manged to remove your windows partitions ? I think in this case you are stuffed, you can reformat the drives and then use the drive as a slave with Filescavenger to try recover important files (Unfortunately)

SBSP is pretty much right. It has happened to a number of computers I have attempted to fix. Most of them did not partition the drive properly or was not activated properly, causing it unallocated and sometime unreadable. Good luck to you I have tried using many different file scavenger software, most of them has a hard time picking it up. Worst case scenario you need to take it to a HDD recovery specialist. That means, lots of $$$
