Still remember the time I bought red faction guerilla for 2 bucks on Steam and GWFL completely cockblocked me from ever playing it for absolutely no reason.
@songwriter1987: Yeah I already ordered the parts, was just wondering if there was some temporary fix that would allow me to use my computer so I wouldn't have to use this ancient laptop that just barely surf the internet at this point.
So I recently had some trouble with my computer randomly shutting down when playing taxing games which I eventually found out was because my CPU was holding 80 degrees whilst being idle.
So I grabbed my trusty compressed air bottle and got all the dust off the CPU fan but that barely helped so I figured maybe I had to reapply the cooling paste as it had been a while since I applied it. So I start dismantling the CPU fan to reapply the cooling paste but then I see one of the two screws that connects the fan and the motherboard together is fucked and I can't screw it together so now I am basically screwed (heh).
Is there any Mcguyver esque fix for this or do I have to wait till my new fan arrives before I can use my computer again?
