Welcome Nathan :) Glad to see you found your way here to our forums.

Also, feel free to post your computer specs (cpu, ram, video card, operating system) and we can better help you to get the most credit out of your machine. If you aren't 100% committed to one project of course ;). (and even if you are, make sure to attach to WuProp (http://wuprop.boinc-af.org/) as it is basically free credit)

Holy Crap 75c @-) Are you overclocked at all or is that just how hot the Celery's run? Are you using the stock intel cpu cooler? If you are, you could update it to an aftermarket one like these (http://www.compusa.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CatId=1588&name=Socket-755-CPU-Cooling-Fans&Nav=|c:493|&Sort=0&Recs=10)

Well he did say it was a laptop. Maybe PG isn't the right place for it. Androinc might be the place for optimal credit. Does your lappy have a video card?

OK yeah, brain farted there. Too much going on at work (maybe I shouldn't be on the forums while at work :D). I use a laptop cooler like this one (http://www.compusa.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5233224&CatId=3486). I also leave the laptop open and then just have the screen turn off after 2 mins to eliminate potential burn-in
