RE: noisey PC also



Cheers Stuart.

I'll take a look, but the noise from the fan isn't a problem it's hardly
audable, the problem comes from the vibration being transmitted to the
floor, then the ceiling downstairs acting like a speaker and
"playing"
it to the hallway & stairway, and to a lesser extent, the lounge, but a
loud telly solves that. :-)
