Hello,On a completely different (but hot) piece of equipment, I have used a thin "laptop cooler" dual fan (about 5/16" thick!) on top of the equipment to exhaust hot air from the top of the case. Even though the fans are very slow (and quiet) and don't move much air volume, removing the hot air from the top of the case dropped the temperature of the electronics by 20 degrees F!I wonder why System Saver does not give enough cool to PC Transporter card. All the parts on the PC Transporter card are okay except math coprocessor chip. The math coprocessor chip gets very hot like 120 degree temperature. The PC Transporter card can survive about 10 minutes before it locked up.
Try a few things. Check the fan to ensure it's running ok and at proper speed. Check the seal around the System Saver/GS and make sure it's ok as well. You may also have to remove the shielding on the top of the case to improve air-flow. This will of course void your warranty :)
