Maybe even Billy has forgotten>
For our younger viewers I will explain.
A Sweety Mouse was a very popular piece of candy . It has all the details of a proper mouse and was usually made out of marshmallow coated in fine sugar. Complete with tail/eyes/nose etc you were never quite sure where to take the first bite.lol
A bit sadistic when you pulled its head off.(no pun intended).
Sadly they dont seem to be on the market anymore.
Hope this helps ;D
cheers

Hi Weera,
Normally we would apply thermal paste when installing a new CPU(processor) This would be between the heatsink fan and the back of the newly installed socket cpu. Normally a little dab, about the size of a pea is sufficient. As you may have read I applied quite a bit and things heated up etc. What you are basically looking for is a thin smear to transfer the heat to the heatsink fan. Make sure you have the heat sink securely fastened to the motherboard. Clean any of your cards(graphic or ram) before you install and you should be ok.
cheers
