Did you read the instructions that came with the PC? Try turning the heat down until its gently rocking.

Dammit, I'm such an idiot... I thought it was letting off too much steam because I did something wrong, so i put a little weight on the thing that lets off steam.... hmmm, any way I can repair this? the only part that blew off was the little plastic pin that has something to do with the amount of pressure inside...

Yeah like Anno said Always read the PC manual you get when you buy it because we can't tell you how to use it only the manufacture can because they built it
