Cheapo cooling for older PCs:
	1- disconnect power and cables
	2- remove cover
	3- with a can of compressed air, blow out dust where ever you see any
	   inside the case... especially on blades of any fans 
	4- reconnect cables, but leave cover off
	5- power up
	6- aim small table fan at computer
	7- enjoy
