    attach 80mm fan to volcano 7+?

    I noticed that, I want to fasten the fan directly to the heatsink, but I don't know how. I thought of glueing it to the sink but that would be a little bit harsh. :)

    I used windows 2000 pro and since a couple of weeks I changed to Windows XP pro. XP looks betters then 2000 but it's just a little slower then 2000 on my machine and it behaves in some strange ways I don't really like. So in my opinion 2000 it still the best OS. Perhaps after the first...

    W2K SP2 >=>=>=>=>=??
