Re: SD-1 Overheating

2004-11-01 by windsailor97

FYI - My VFX-SD always did the same thing, it would get smoking hot.  

It even seemed to crash more when it got hot.  So I put a little 
clamp fan on the desk with it pointed at the cooling fins and voila.  
No crashing and reduced heat.  Seems it should have had a blower on 
it when manufactured if you ask me.
