AMD K6-2/3 CPUs are suspectible to heat build up inside a case. The best option is to get a new case with a fan in the bottom front (sucking air in) and a fan in the top back (sucking air out). Getting a large case will allow better air circulation between the different components. On really hot days, do your computer a favor and leave it off until the room temperature cools down.
Also make sure you put thermal grease between the CPU and heat sink. My extra fans in the case were unable to stop the overheating, but after I put thermal grease in, I never had a problem again. *************************************************** Powered by SuSE Linux 7.1 Professional KDE 2.0.1 KMail 1.1.99 Bryan S.
