Your brother seems to cause you alot of problems. I wonder if you stick a stamp on his forehead, the mailman would pick him up?

Way to hot , Should be around 54
That's 54 Celsius not Fahrenheit from what I've read though. Processor is running around 60C though, so it is higher than it should be. Motherboard is 40C, graphics 53C, and hard drive 44C.
I have a fan that can fit in a spare slot that I want to see if I can have put in and hooked up. If it works it might help to cool.
havasu, I'm about at my wit's end with my brother right now. I'll spare you from the rant.
Edit to add: I'm currently downloading the Drive Fitness Test for my hard drive. It's a 2mb file but it's got 2minutes left to go on the download. Throttled internet... #firstworldproblems
Finally loaded but it wants to burn a copy to a DVD and I don't have any burnable DVDs. LOL. I think I should just get my files transferred over to my new drive.

Motherboard - 40C
Video - 53C
HDD - 44C
Those are good temps. Forget F with computers and PLEASE use C, as that is what I'm looking for and will find.
Your temps are fine .

Just took another look at your post . Your Cpu is to high.
As for the CPU, 72.4°C is max
And my panic level sets in at 65C as my curiosity takes hold at about 58C. Reason, at 67C, cpu's have been know to flip bits at 67C and that causes damage to the OS.
Here is a working link for your HD.

Thanks, Nick.
I turned up the fan knobs on my case and pointed my table fan directly at the back of the computer for a few hours so now it has cooled off. it's also night so it isn't as warm in the house.
Temps:
CPU 50C
Mainboard 40C
Graphics 51C
HD 44C
I may have to just set up a little fan to blow cold air on the back of the PC to help cool it from now on.
I'll see if the program in your link will work to diagnose the drive.
Right now it is taking forever to download. My ISP has not been uncapping my speed when it is supposed to.
Edit: Ok. downloaded it and ran it and it didn't have any HD in the list. It came with two exe files.. One called setup, but I don't know what the program was exactly. Do I need to run the setup one to run the DFT?
On a side note, if I cloned my HD and copied it over to a new one, would it corrupt the new one? Or would it likely be ok if the problem is the old one having bad sectors or some sort of mechanical failure of sorts? I want to keep my software, preferences, etc, without having to reinstall everything.
Edit again: So, I ran the setup file to install the software and the ran the software, but it isn't showing any harddisks in the list so I can't get it to do anything.

You are putting the same errors on the new drive .
Run Speedtest.net see what your download, and upload is .

The problem is we went over the ISP's monthly limit because the ISP's server is counting our usage during the time when it isn't supposed to be counting-- it seems to have us on the wrong plan or wrong time zone. So we are severely throttled. There are also problems with the web acceleration software that cause it to miscalculate our actual usage.
Additionally, the signal to noise ratio is only 3.3dB and it should be at least 7. Ideally it should be 8 or 9.
I may have to deal with the myrtle tree next to the dish.
Meanwhile: Speed test
Yeah, didn't think the cloned thing would work.
Not sure why the diagnostic thing for the HD won't work. I don't know if it is a case of PEBKAC or if my computer is just having issues with it.

Mine is 26, 9.26 with an upload 0.94
I rebooted my modem to try to fix the issue, but it didn't work, so I had to call technical support. They had to reboot it on their end while I rebooted the router. My modem has consistently not been getting unthrottled at the appropriate time, so I'm going to hit my ISP up for more bandwidth as compensation because I've been having problems.
This is my speed test when I am NOT capped (note, I will always have high ping because it's satellite):
Nick, my computer just hates these programs apparently. I think it's so corrupted it is causing things to fail. The drive is several years old though.
However, I did get this from the Attributes tab:

Can't believe your speeds ,Almost as fast as dial up .
Let me check this out .
Do you get anything from the error log ?

No. It won't create an error log.
I just found it amusing that the Attributes tab had several things that said "old age".

Because there old .
Try running CHKDSK .Start - run - paste CHKDSK into prompt.
If that don't work try MS's built in instructions .

I ran disk defragment earlier. Not sure if it helped.
Just tried to run chkdsk and it opened for a split second and then closed immediately.
I've scheduled a disk check via the instructions from the microsoft site though. I'll run it when I reboot later.

Yes, it looks like the drive is failing.
Errors listed here are mechanical errors but those MAY cause some data errors.
You surely should back everything up however some data MAY be corrupted.
We can remove the corrupted data after you back up to the new drive .
We're just spinning our wheels in the sand here .

Yeah, was gonna get my friend to help me get everything migrated over but his favorite aunt just died and he finally broke up with his **** girlfriend today. She's pretty much ruined his life and treats him like garbage so he finally broke it off but he feels terrible about it. I think I'll see if I can make sure to back up stuff to portable drives as well-- just in case.

Acronis true image is a good back up software .
