FWIW, my E2140 is running 12+ hours Orthos stable at 3.2 Ghz at 1.365v. I don't think that is really out of the ordinary so your voltage seems high. I also barely reached 60C at 2.8Ghz when I was using the stock cooler (since changed over to TR Ultima-90).
Mech: thanks much for the link. Didn't know that existed and will check it out.
Bsobel: you're probably right. I ran Windows update and it probably conflicted with what it was already installing.
Intstalled Vista 64-bit Ultimate yesterday and am having some interesting issues with Windows update. Basically, 18 or so of the "critical" updates failed to install. There is, apparently, no way for me to request Windows update to attempt to reinstall the "failed" patches nor do they show up...
Anyone have any links to relevant documents/sites that might more easily explain the difference between Vista 32-bit and 64-bit?
I'm trying to explain this to my Dad who wants to purchase a new computer and all I can find is stuff from 2006/early 2007 complaining (amongst other things) about...

Thanks to all for the input.
Did a search in this forum for "backlit" and "illuminated" but didn't find much. Any good suggestions for backlit keyboards? I find that I like to play games in low light conditions but really have trouble seeing the keyboard.
The Logitech G15 looks like it might be overkill for me and...
It was my router MTU setting. Apparently 1472 doesn't work for HTTPS connections in general with my D-link DSL-504T. Who knew?
Bumped MTU down to 1400 and everything works great. The magic number (so I've read) appears to be 1432... anything bigger and HTTPS times out.
I couldn't get the page to load in Firefox or IE. I then cleared my cache in both and could access the main page but cannot seem to get the search function on newegg.com or the secure ordering system to work. Anyone having similar problems?
