Cooling, TWGS and Buggie PSUs...

[Richard Kilpatrick <delorean@NOSPAMbtconnect.com>]

The IIgs is suffering some crashes with the TW - I might not have cleaned
the connections as thoroughly as I should have, but since it's passing all
tests each time, I suspected heat - removing the lid has sorted most of the
problems and it even ran Samurai at full speed, suggesting I have problems
with heat.

As far as I can tell, most of the heat is coming from the PSU, of course -
and I get a lot of bus noise anyway through the audio animator.

Would using a Buggie cable to a PC PSU (external, of course) reduce the heat
in the IIgs sufficiently to sort this out, or do I need to get a cooling fan
as well? Things like the system saver are exceptionally rare in the UK
(240v, of course).
