I've noticed for about 6 months that the cooling fan is noisy and erratic. I figured it would eventually kill the machine. About 2 weeks ago, it began crashing daily with the BSOD, complaining sometimes about the infinite loop and the video driver. This machine is owned by a DOD contractor and is heavily secured, so I highly doubt a virus is the cause. Tomorrow the Dell guy will replace the MB.

Now I have found solution for this problem. I have T42 with ATI Mobility 7500 VGA card, this graphics card was working fine on WinXP but when I installed Windows7, blue screen and system restart problem occurring while opening some applications. Don’t worry and enjoy Windows 7 with ATI graphic card. Problem: Actually ATI3Dual.dll file is creating problem as this file not digitally signed, so take below mentioned steps. Install Windows 7 Right click on My Computer and select (Manage) then click on (Device Manager) and then click on Display adapter and manually update drivers by providing driver location path. System will require windows restart for drivers update. Restart you machine, windows will load required files and register entries in registry. Now again restart your machine in safe mode by selecting F-8 key, and then open folder C:\windows\system32 and delete below mentioned file. Ati3duag.dll And again restart your machine…… Problem resolved. ATI Blue Screen Problem

I saw something like this in SE Michigan recently on machine in for repair. Good stuff.

IT freezed if the case is handled ever so slightly, perhaps even by typing any key or pressure on the left and right site of the keypad.After removing keypad and brezle I plugged the key pad in and repowered. It appears that if the wifi card was toached that it freezed again. Then I removed the wifi-card, pushed the Intel-chip beneath the opening of the wifi-card and it powered on and it start working fine as long as presure was on the INTEL-chip. Then I took some expired plastic (credit)cards, without magnetic-strip, put two parts on top of the intel-chip. Replaced the wifi-card with some pressure. then put two full plastic-cards on the wifi-card. Remounted the brezzle. With a little test plugged in the keyboard and machine worked well. After installing the keyboard oner of the screws had to be untight a little and the t42 worked again. I had similar problems with IBM thinkpad T42.

Having removed the keyboard, palmrest and network card which can probably be set aside without disconnecting the antenna. I pressed gently on the chip to reset it in its socket the one billionth of an inch that it moves. I checked the success of this by temporarily reinstalling the keyboard to see if I had video. I cleaned the area where I was going to spread the epoxy with no residue contact cleaner. I mixed some of the epoxy and spread it around the circumfrence of the ATI module avoiding any of the other chips. I put the stuff over the edge of the module up to but not over the chip itself in order to not change heat dissipation any more thannecessary . I used a wood tool, wife's wood cuticle tool - new to avoid contmination, with a blunt but thin edge to spread the cement about 1/8 inch from the edge of the module. I did not hesitate to cover everything in that range as JBWeld is supposed to be an insulator, even though it contains iron power go figure. I called the factory to clarify this and was assured that it was in fact insulating and that others had used it on circuit boards. JBWeld can be heated to 600 degrees so I figured that if it failed I could try the resolder. Now that this has been done it is obvious that the chip will not be moving relative to the board again. I hope. 18 hours later curing time and having not moved the computer at all, it worked. I have been to several coffee shops and moved it all over to test the real world success. This is day three and all is well. No apparent side effects. http://jbweld.net/index.php I have a picture but do not know how to include that in this post. This is as simple as it seems. Now 3 weeks later ad having droped the computer 2' from a table. Knocked the battery and HD out but didnt disturb video and still works, with a little tape to hold the battery in place. ;-) Unconventional successful repair, T40:

I just tried the shim, using two a4 pieces of paper folded a few times... it creates a noticeable bulge in the keyboard, but I'm hoping it will create enough pressure over the graphics chip/heatsink. My initial stress test of shaking/bumping pretty vigorously was successful... here's hoping it holds up. Thanks to the informative posters above!
