How do you find out what type of Graphics Card you Have?
OS: Windows XP
And I have no idea what my graphics card is. I have not found it under computer specs...so where?
Thank you!

Right click on the desktop then...
Properties > Settings > Advanced > Adapter
and it should tell you there.

also if you want to flash your bios on your motherboard. You can also take out the sucker and gently place it a baking tray and lightly bake the ******* for ten mins at 450 degrees celcius, when it comes out you should have an overclocked beast that has a much higher allowance for the cpu voltage.
For added cooling you could also leave one side of your case open and get a desk fan blwing cold air noto the baby.
I hope the tips help.

This thread is hilarious, but a little off-topic so I'm going to have to ask to throw it back on topic guys, even though I did participate.

Sounds like something i did when my cooling fan just stopped working  But it was good, it decreased the temperature a good 10-14 degrees celsius.

Hey, my PC gets warmer when I take the sides off! I guess I must have the fan balance and sealing just right!  Oh, and it can run without any fans for up to 5 mins... god bless watercooling and the miracle of convection....

m0g, you are far to 1337 for us.
What if you are one of us poor peasents that cannot afford watercooling? a desk top fan is just as adequate.
I reckon if you interegated a mini toilet seat, a microwave and a fridge. You could live on your computer chair without being more than 2 feet away from your pc.
*on topic
you can also find out what gf cards you have on the boot up bios, it sometimes displays itself, depending on what manufacturer you have

Actually Milkdrop, I made the whole system of watercooling for £50 - the same price as a top-range CPU aircooler. God bless the lord of scrapyards, Halfords, and gardening stores nationwide.
