Thanks, for the reply, Kevin. I have read on other forums what you are
saying here. I may go that route if I can't find a really good fan to
replace it with. I figure I should be able to do that for under $10
so why take the chance?
OTOH, I have a vague recollection of having gone through this before
shortly after installing the board... I wonder why there are so many
problems
with it?
