Wow. I never quite understood termination power, and this might explain the recent spate of computer hangs I've been seeing (weird ones, too, where it throws up a white screen in multiple langauges telling me to restart). I originally expected heat (the beige G3 chassis doesn't provide for a whole lot of current inside it, does it? With a G4/450 upgrade, OC'd to 500, I expect I generate alot of heat never foreseen in teh beige DT). I've used a squirrel cage fan taped down to the chassis and blowing over the fins of heatsink, previously I had a homeade "duct" with a fan on the side hung off the side where the cards go into direct a little more fresh air down to the bowels of the case, I pulled it out on the last upgrade, was thinking of re-setting ti up. -- http://www.infotainment.org <-> more fun than a poke in your eye. http://www.eighteenpercent.com <-> photography and portfolio. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
