Actually, a BSOD is something from the old days of Windows, as Windows 95 & 98 where very much notorious for their regular BSOD's. The full scripture for this is 'Blue Screen Of Death', which you will no doubt remember if you've ever used Windows before the NT-kernel. BSOD's still happen in Windows these days, but they are far more rare then they were before Windows 2000.

However, the term BSOD is now used widespread as a term to mark system crashes of any sort. When you up the clock of your PC too much, you probably won't get a real bluescreen, your system will just crash and reboot. This is generally still referred to as 'BSOD'.

(Little secret: There are people who believe the BSOD still gives a real bluescreen-error, but Windows hides them and reboots instead. As true as this may be, in terms of overclocking it's just the CPU receiving too little power, so the OS hasn't even got the option to show a BSOD)

Don't make me "touch" you :-D

Re: cpu fan?

If you really want CPU cooler, Im sure that those USB extension ones you put under the laptopPC should work (although I never had one, because so far my N10 hasn't BSOD'ed!!

My XP machine 2 generations ago BSOD alot when playing DOTA.... ahh...good days/.....
