Thanks, the processor is installed and the machine is working ubuntu 7.10 cd, old beta....   As soon as I get the rc version  i will install it.  I hear the computer beeping on startup, i put the memory in another slot and it stopped. Do I have to do anything else except  put the cd in and install 7.10 when i get rc? thanks for all the help.. <div>On 10/12/07, Eric Lockhart <<a href="mailto:lockhart.eric@gmail.com">lockhart.eric@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">The clear film should easily peel off the bottom before you place it on the processor.  It's just there to protect the bottom of the heatsink from getting dust, oil, or anything else that can cause more heat.  You could put some arctic silver compound on it but it's not required if you don't plan on overclocking the processor.

I noticed that the fan heat sink bottom has a clear bottom, do i take the clear stuff off the bottom of the heatsink or does it melt and stick to the processor to form a bond? thanks <div>On 10/7/07, Nick Ali <<a href="mailto:nali@ubuntu.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">nali@ubuntu.com </a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Accounts -> Add/Edit -> Add. Select Protocol irc. Type in a name that you want to use to identify youself. Change server to <a href="http://irc.freenode.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> irc.freenode.net</a>. There is no password. Hit Save. Pidgin should automatically try to connect then. A window should show up once you are connected. Type '/j #ubuntu-georgia' and a window or tab with for the channel should show up. nick On 10/7/07, Bill N <<a href="mailto:billisnice@gmail.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">billisnice@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > I have Pidgin for windows, > > I put <a href="http://irc.freenode.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">irc.freenode.net </a> as the server, do i need a password?
