1. Turn off your computer.
2. Goto the computer store nearest you.
3. Purchase more "goo"
4. Remove fan/cooler and apply "goo"
5. Else, say goodbye to CPU |

Should also take care in replacing the goo (such as Artic Silver) as too much, too little or uneven application will prevent or limit good heat transfer.

It's called "thermal grease", nad it helps to disipate heat off of your processor. If you don't have thermal grease, you take the risk of overheating your proceesor, and that would be bad. |
