Unnecessary fan noise from your 8800GT? Here’s a dull post, but one that might be useful to someone or other.
Quick summary: check the screws attaching the fan to the heatsink. They may be loose, or – as in my case – have fallen out altogether, causing the fan to vibrate and strike the shroud.
Getcha Vulture Air jingle here.
Created on a whim for The Register’s PARIS project.
may your dreams be gold and silver
may your days outshine the sun
may tomorrow carry wonder
from today, when you are one
The Election Song Contest 2010 final will take place at Darbucka in Clerkenwell on 5th May.
And well, well, well – I’m playing… eek! Here’s me:
It’ll be much like that, I imagine (that is, error-prone, husky and poor singing and plenty of chin) only more so, because I’ve got a bit of a cold/chest thing going on. But it should be fun – some of the other entrants are pretty good, and there are a few proper acts to round off an evening of electoral comedy and music and that.
Come along if you can, ’tis only £7. Doors open at 7pm I think.
