I have a Celeron-based BookPC (FlexATX).  It's about a year old and rarely get used.  I've just noticed that when attaching the power cord to it, I hear a hissing (as an air being released) from the rear, and sometimes I think I feel warm air coming  from the vent holes.  It powers up, but only sometimes actually boot/POST (no video, nuthin').  Also, when this PC is connected to a Linksys KVM switch it fouls up (disables) the others connected to the KVM (which gets its power thru KB port).   Anyone as any ideas for a solution before I fling this P.O.S. outta my window?   TIA
