While Rainmeter has improved its user-friendliness substantially, beginners can still easily get lost in the configuration options and settings. Once a relatively complicated application, the developers of this customizable personalization utility have increasingly striven to make the meter's interface more user-friendly. You can move different meter windows around on a whim, edit their skins relatively easily, tweak the transparency, and even make them disappear completely. For instance, it now actually comes pre-installed with a theme called Enigma-a desktop skin type wherein you can add clocks, calendars, and RSS, as well as a whole range of system monitors.Įnigma has been included specifically because it makes your desktop into a really functional space. Aside from that, it can also do some pretty cool things to your Windows desktop. It flags no potential virus or risk for your computer at all.

Not sure if it's a coincidence or not, but I feel it's still worth mentioning.With the use of more than 50 antivirus software, Rainmeter has been proven and tested to be safe and secure to use. I have also ran several virus sweeps to no avail, so why can't my laptop turn on without exploding every time?Įdit: I forgot to mention this whole ordeal started happening the moment after I did a windows update. The next suggestion I found online was to run a full hard drive test in DOS, and nothing came up there either. Turns out the fan was actually pretty dusty, (first time cleaning it) but this did not solve anything. My first thought was the fan is clogged up with dust and choking to death, so I dissected the computer and cleaned the fan with compressed air.

This will all last for about 10 seconds or so and then everything is perfectly normal again. Alright, so for the past week and a half or so my Alienware 14 will boot up perfectly fine, but after about a minute or so of being on the fan will nearly explode from spinning up so loud, and I the computer completely locks up, no mouse movement or loading on any games/webpages.
