Snow makes my computer hot

For the last week I've been wondering why my CPU fan was noisy,

It never has been before.

I've finally worked out why. The "snow" effect uses a lot of CPU power.

When I flip from Google to the Forum my CPU usage jumps from around 3% to an average of 60% on all 4 cores! Coupled with this my core temperatures jump 15 degrees.

Well take your computer outside into the sun (the Brits would not know what that is

) and let the snow melt

Andrew,

Maybe now is the time to ditch Windows 98.

Found this for you!

Well spotted Andrew. I have stopped the snow and your PC should cool down quickly.

David, thank you, I was having the same problem with my Mac running Safari.
