If you don't want to void the warranty, then don't monkey with the fan speed or accidentally shut any fans down for any amount of time. That can roast things. There are companies that sell sound killing computer cabinets for tower style computers but they're not cheap. Google is your friend. You don't strike me as the handy type but I'll suggest the most common inexpensive DIY path taken for killing PC noise. This assumes the T7610 sits on the floor next to your desk, not on it. If not, put it on the floor already. Build a 3 sided box out of 3/4" MDF with outside dimensions, matched to the T7510 11W x 18H x 28D Cover the inside and outside with low pile carpet, using 3M Super77 adhesive or simply lots of T50 1/4" staples. Wrap it around the edges and neatly trim it so it looks half way decent. Lower it over the T7610 so you have 3.5" overhang front and rear. This will pretty much kill the noise problem instantly. Carpeting the outside isn't necessary for killing noise, but looks better than bare MDF. You could use black synth wood grain Melamine or even Maple veneer if want it to really look fancy. Finish is your choice. You could substitute 1.5" thick egg crate acoustic damping foam on the inside. Carpet remnants are usually easier for most people to acquire from a store or relative/friend, probably cheaper as well, and just as effective at killing the noise. I've build a few of these in the past and they just work. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
