Post #172,331 by deSitter 9/2/04 12:15:40 AM Reply	Re: Okay, I told him (slaps head) The fibrillation can happen any time, as when -GASP- it gets hot because the processor it's sitting on heats up. If it never happened until now, and knowing the dust situation in St. Louis, I'd immediately suspect the fan and replace it REGARDLESS of other considerations. -drl
Post #172,334 by Nightowl 9/2/04 12:19:02 AM Reply	I see so it wouldn't fibrillate all the time then? It could spin properly sometimes and then not spin properly. Okay, noted. Would it make that weird scritching sound? I'll let him know what you said, and I really do appreciate the input.
