Re: IIe system saver replacement fan (more power, captain)
<< The IIe overheats and crashes after about 15 minutes.

slot2 focus 1.5 gigabyte
slot3 transwarp
slot4 mouse
slot5 empty for now
slot6 UDC
slot7 parallel card
Where can I get a fan for the system saver IIe (kensington) that moves
more air? Today I will remove the power supply from the case and mount
it external.

Rich,
With that much installed on your //e, your old transformer, and not the
cooling fan, is probably the culprit. The same thing happened to mine early in
my FOCUS Drive years (which are still going on). Even after I upgraded to an
internal high powered transformer, the problem resurfaced. My solution? I
replaced the power supply with a Bugg Power supply. Now I can plug anything
into the motherboard, short of an aircraft carrier, and the //e never even
blinks.
