@@RichsRandomRetroReviews Managed to get 7.1 on it (quite easy to do as well) and it works so much better - 7.5 pretty much took up most of the 40mb partition (probably should've made the disk bigger when I originally set it up!) .
No just the screws that held the original fan in. It might have been a little quieter had I done that (assuming they fit). But I wanted a quick and easy job for now.
@@jjr5500 I see, I though you meant the attachment of the fan! - I might take a look at that cable - but as I need it to be 2 pin connector I might need to be a bit creative with it. Obviously I didn't read any documentation that came with it!
Quite a difference!
It's so much more usable now (apart from the slow OS).
@@stevesretroloft Stick 6.0.8 or 7.1 on it. It'll make such a difference.

Hello Steve - Did you use the low noise adaptor that came with the fan?

The fan kit should have included a 4 pin low-noise adaptor cable in the kit that takes the voltage down to 7-8V@@stevesretroloft
