This break, I had the opportunity to play some video games, but I noticed that my machine was locking up on occasion… It started frustrating me, so I decided to investigate… I installed the latest drivers yesterday, and it was still crashing today, so I cracked the case open…

The fan on my videocard decided to fill itself with dust and seize…. I took out the card, blew as much dust out of it as possible, and WD-40ed the fan, and it spins pretty well again…. Hopefully that was it..
