Having some trouble with an iMac G5 iSight (2,1GHz model). It's overheating even at idle, and the CPU fan is always running at full (3600rpm). If I set the CPU performance to reduced it stays just below where the overtemp sensor that puts the computer to sleep.
I've vaccummed with a strong vaccuum all the air vents and used compressed air...but incoming air temperature is still 46C (room temp here is 14C). So I suspect something is clogged (the machine *is* actually hot, so it's not just a bad sensor I suspect)
Anyone figure out a good way to clean this or fix this?
