If it's running, and you're not getting random lockups and freezes, then you're ok. 40C is well within spec, but unless you're measuring the temp with a thermocouple on the processor, the number you get is inaccurate. It's an ok technique to watch the temperature vary, but the actual temperature reported is usually wrong. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
