System specs
Yeah get Speedfan and look at the 1-2 fans ( if there is only 1 then tell us that temp ) It'll be in Celsius so it might be like 40c or something, most computers these days ( unles they have really high end stuff like a 8800 ) will start to slow down if their temps hit over 50-55c and wont be able to do anything
