New Inspiron 1525: Smaller, Thinner and Lighter than the 1520

asherm01 — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 23:51:14 GMT

My wife's Inspiron 1525 started shutting down from overheating (7 times last Friday) when doing processing intensive applications like Spore. Saturday I removed the 8 screws on the module cover & the 5 screws on the Processor Thermal-Cooling Assembly & vacuumed off the thermal cooling assembly & around where it was in the laptop. It had become clogged with dust in the year & 1/2 we had it. Since then it's worked fine. Getting to this is described in:

Wow! This is like something I've been looking for. Wondering if the price has gone down a lot now? Even if this laptop is not included in Amazon's laptops-for-sale, I'll still get it immediately.

I got my Inspiron 1525 at the end of February 2008 but about 4 months ago it started acting up, it randomly crashes to a blue screen with white writing which I can't read because it disappears and the laptop reboots. It says things like 'Page fault in non-paged area' and 'Memory management'. It keeps happening and I don't know what to do.

I've had my 1525 for about two months and I can't use the cd/dvd drive at all. No matter what disc I put in nothing happens. What do I do?
