   Hmm. I may have to try switching CPU fans, while I wait on the BeOS CD   
   and Gobe to come in. I took everything apart to clean and see if I could   
   find a hardware problems and I found nothing, but I did notice the CPU   
   fan was sounding a little sick for awhile, after I first got it back   
   together. It sounds fine now though, but it is a Golden Orb which is   
   about 5 years old. It is quieter and more efficient, then the normal   
   Intel fans. I have one new Intel fan/heatsink still sitting here. I was   
   able to load a linux CD on the end of the BeOS drive though, as a test   
   of the system and that drive. I will definitely keep that fan in mind at   
   the least, and thanks for the tip on it. Dwight
