    Hope not!

    Do blast some compressed air through the laptop from time to time and also give it a general clean up. Been using the lapptop for a good few years now with no problems (I hope!) :biggrin

    I had a look at the back of my pc the other day and the fan outlet was covered in dust.

    The problem is my PC is by my bed and every opportunity my dog gets she is on my bed especially if there is no one in and she brings dust with her.

    I close my door and she scratches the carpet, she has even managed a few times to get the door open so she can get on my bed.

    I know its her fault because the sky box infront of the bed gets dusty if my dog has managed to get on the bed a couple of times in the week.

    I need to implement a cleaning program with air etc to clean components with.

    You'll like the Antec P180B/P182B... there's cleanable filters on the fronts... my case stays pretty free of dust. :)

    I just use my lungs and a bit of rubber tube I got at B&Q(to keep the dust out of my hair)
    I once had to take the fan off to clean the fins on the heatsink because it was manky.It was amazing the difference it made.
