Subject: My PC gets too hot <off topic>

Hi folks,

My 1.2 GHz Athlon system gets too hot inside.

Even after turning it off, the 4 hard drives are too hot to touch after a couple
minutes.

This can't be good. :-(

What's the *easiest* way to make the inside of the case cooler, without having
to mess with the CPU fan (I have no evidence that the CPU itself gets too hot).

Thanks in advance!
