So...

Set up a new home office...with al ovely desk. BUt one that was enclosed.

So I put my CPU under the desk...and found that it was blowing a LOT
of hot air...that was being trapped beneath the desk. Made an
appointment for the moving guy to come back to sort it ou, but he
didn't show up.

This morning...all of a sudden...my screen went blank...and Vista
popped a Display Driver alert message. Then I restarted the
machine...and when it restarted there was flashing red goobeledy gook
characters on the screen.
Reboot...reboot...started up a game...Gibberish characters...big
triangles..all sorts of mess.

So....one card fried, due to heat. So I pulled it from the system and
now just have one. It was a great SLI setup too...two 8800GTX cards.
served me well.
Now I'm down to one...and the 8800GTX is getting a bit long in the
tooth for the latest games at 1920 x 1200. *sigh*.

And normally..I'm so careful. It just really sucks that it had to happen.

So..anyways. Be very very careful with heat and your system :-\
