Install the Cabinet Exhaust Fan
An exhaust fan is required to keep the temperature inside the cabinet cool enough for the computer to operate properly.
If you experience blank screens or rebooting issues, this could be due to excessively high temperatures inside the cabinet. Drilling more air holes in the lower rear of the cabinet, as described in step 1 below, should improve airflow and reduce cabinet temperatures.
Perform the following steps to install the exhaust fan and drill air holes:
1.Using a 1/2" drill bit, drill six to eight air holes in the lower rear of the cabinet, as shown in Figure 1. Be careful not to damage any wires or components while drilling.
Place low in cabinet. Position so as to avoid drilling into wires or components.

2.Using a screwdriver, remove the metal or plastic grill covers that cover the ventilation slots on the back of your cabinet. Push in on each corner of the metal grill and they will pop out and fall to the bottom of the cabinet.
