Tried that, Tony. No change. Still just the fans. CPU looked in fine shape,
but I've never seen a bad one. Same goes for the motherboard, AGP card and
RAM. Quite a bit of dust around the fans. A little elsewhere. Do I have to
bite the bullet and try a new processor - seems logical to try that first -
saves dismantling everything.
Went into a computer shop today and the techie said, if the fans are going,
the power supply must be OK. My conclusion too. That's right, isn't it???
