You and I got our 3B1's at the same time. I've added a EIA/COMBO board with 1.5 Meg on it and a DOS73 board. My far has only been at one speed since day one. If we have dual speed fans, I would expect mine to have changed speeds after adding those two boards. Maybe I somehow have a newer issue fan which runs only at the single, higher speed? I would like to know for sure that my 3B1 will shutdown safely if my fan stops. Someone in the know please enlighten us. Marnix ---- -- Marnix (ain't unix!)
