Earlier today I turned the 1 fan that blows air out of the case around so it blows air into the case thinking that that would help cooling. Well doing that must have heated up the hard drives for whatever reason. I turned it back around back to the way it was and now my temperatures read.
I gotta get a new case. This computer originally cost $400. I've upgraded it to 1.25GB of ram, ATI X1800XT 256MB, my hard drive died so I had got a new 160GB one, got a 500 watt power supply with duel 12v rails, and I got a 19" lcd monitor.
