being aware of my processor temperature is something which bugs me
It's hot here : ambient 40 deg C [ abt 105 deg F]
. . . have Case permanently off Box ~ with 12 inch Fan aimed at Mobo, all OK :) { without big fan, my AMD K6/2 cpu suffers phreak_out}
My 550MHz K6-2 runs at (~30°C CPU/~60°C Case) the only real problem I have is with the Hard Disks overheating (this is a common cause of Windows crashes apparently). This is despite having a 300W ATX Full Tower Case with two 12V 8" case fans and removable HDD caddies with fans. When the abient room temperature is cool then Windows is stable, but with the hot weather we are having at the mo I am lucky to get past the login screen! Linux on the otherhand just smiles and beavers away quite happily :-) Regards, Roger -- Roger L.S. Griffiths, BSc (Hons) Gott würfelt nicht (God does not play dice) - Albert Einstein
