lose the case, surface mount pc?
bkenobi:
I had a PC mounted in my first cabinet with no real cooling. It was nothing fancy (Athlon XP 3200+ with basic video card). I had issues with locking up for a while until I added a ducted vent and fans to drive flow into the case. I had vents in the top of the cabinet that were installed by Atari, but the TV blocked most air flow to the top.
Anyway, I haven't had a lock up in quite a while, so I assume the cooling was the resolution. :cheers:
