Anyone got a better idea?

I've spent five hours dinking around with this, between trips to Best
Buy and time researching on-line, and I'm starting to go cross-eyed!


Jay;

The day after Thanksgiving sales are almost here. Go get in line at about
04:00, and get one of the good buys on a new computer.

It will be almost as cheap as all of the work-arounds suggested, and you will
have something that will work for a few more years.

I'll bet that running the computer you have at the maximum limits of performance
in the Kiwi will be producing a lot of heat, which is a bad thing for the life
of a computer. I'll bet you will be buying a new one within a year, anyway.

Get an extra case fan, too. Less than $15, I think.
