After all this time, I’ve come back from London and we’ve done a new and crazy music video.
This song is about all the people that are hoping to be found and survive (and maybe haver a success) with their songs or their videos or art or whatever they love to do. It’s about how to be success.
Thanks to the new technologies, we all can make ourselves heard. Internet is a fabulous way to promote our work and make money but like everything in this life, it also brings bad things like the fine line between promotion and spam.

Introducing my brand new Desktop Power-Pack. It’s Rubbish.
Its 4+4 12v CPU cable connector is wrong. If you have a powerful CPU you probably won’t be able to plug-in the extra 4 pin connector as it has the wrong shaped pins.
So… I had to cut mine off…
And replace them with an 8 pin connector that does fit.
So now the CPU has the extra 12v it might need when put to work, but the fan still spins at 6000 RPM!
I then found out why… It seems the motherboard – regardless of CPU temperature sets the general fan speed to very fast – ranging up to over 6000, but once I had plugged in an auxillary fan it then went down to 4700! The amount of fans plugged into the motherboard is relevant to how fast they spin!
Q: Is your processor fan spinning too fast?
A: Try plugging in another auxillary fan.
Presentando mi Nuevo Desktop Power-Pack.
Es basura.
Su cable conector de CPU 4+4 12v está equivocado. Si tienes una CPU potente probablemente no serás capaz de conectar el conector extra de 4 pin ya que tiene las formas de los enganches erróneas.
Asà que… he tenido que cortar los mÃos…
Y reemplazarlos con un conector de enganches de 8 que sà encaja.
Asà que ahora la CPU tiene los 12v extra que deberÃa necesitar para funcionar, ¡pero el ventilador todavÃa gira a 6000 RPM!
So, I sort of got distracted the other day, with this song..
It’s going well and I have all the lyrics done already! I’ve also done the drums, guitar, bass AND recorded the main vocal track, all in a weekend!!!! When I’m inspired and motivated, ideas come so fast!!
The trouble is that it uses up a lot of my time. Sometimes I get so involved that I go passed the hunger stage and then start feeling sick! But I’m a bit more conscious of it now and don’t let it happen as much…
Anyway, hopefully this new song shouldn’t take long. I’ve already started on the harmonies.
I’ve decided to call the song ‘Clean The Fan’ because it’s about my computer fan. Look at how dusty it is!
I had quite a job getting to it, that’s why I’m writing a song about it. I know, I know, the subject sounds petty, but me and ‘Joe!’ have got an idea for a video, that goes very well with it and it’s going to be a funny song that also has a little dig at ‘HP’, for a stupid design! So there’s that, for you all to look forward to!!!
Pues, el otro dÃa me distraje, con esta canción…
El problema es cuando se lleva un montón de mi tiempo. A veces me involucro tanto que se me pasa la fase del hambre ¡y entonces empiezo a sentirme enfermo! Pero soy un poco más consciente de ello ahora y no dejo que me ocurra tanto…
De todas formas, con suerte esta nueva canción no me llevará demasiado. Ya he empezado con las armonÃas.
He decidido llamar a la canción “Clean the fan” porque va sobre el ventilador de mi ordenador. ¡Mirad lo polvoriento que está!
The Tall One has just bought me the components for a Super-Video-Editing-Monster! But now after putting all the pieces together – the whopping cuad-core processor, massive Ati Radeon graphics card and fast and strong Gigabyte motherboard, and waiting for a hefty lightning storm to bring the beast alive, I’ve found it’s too alive! The processor fan spins at a staggering 6000 revolutions per minute (RPM) and I don’t know why!?? (the cpu temp is only at 30-40ºc).
So I’ve been going here a great forum, with really helpful people – to try and sort it out…
Not sure if Frankenstein had this kind of trouble… What would he have done?…
Probably would have dunked it in a tank of electric eels…
Today my laptop core temp reached 95º C!!!!
Strangely, my BIOS doesn’t seem to think that the processor is over-clocking because it’s not automatically shutting down! But 95 degrees MUST be hot enough no?
The strange thing is that even after updating the BIOS, it still lets it get this hot!!
So anyway, I think that it’s time to open up the back and give the fan a little clean.. YEAH RIGHT!!! In order to get to the fan; you need to take the whole thing apart (keys, screen, EVERYTHING!!). Why is there not just a simple panel at the back that you can just unscrew and open!!!???
So..
After looking at videos on youtube of people modifying their own fans and even burning holes in the back plastic, for better ventilation and seeing as my laptop is now out of warranty, I’ve started to think of what mods I could do to mine.
Apart from taking the whole damn thing apart and doing some of the mods that people have suggested, I’m also going to see if I can cut a hole in the back piece and fit some sort of home made removable panel, where the fan is, to be able to access it easier for future cleaning..
I start tomorrow… wish me luck!
¡¡¡Hoy mi la temperatural central de mi portátil ha alcanzado 95º C!!!!
