I disabled my graphics card and it still grumbles. The GPU still gets warm but by standards not too warm at 54c? When it gets to 118c at times I do shut it off. It's 78c right now.

This technology forum is so great for brainstorming. If anyone has ANY idea what the problem could be I would appreciate it, otherwise I am not going to sink money into it for guesses.

Yes, disabling the graphics card made no change in it's behavior.

If I remember right it is an aspire X1700. I haven't looked at the tower yet to confirm but is the number I've got stuck in my head. I spent some time looking around the web for that models drivers etc. so I am sure I am right.
