this is a suggestion, maybe you can take the side off the tower and take some pictures of the inside especially the fan you suspect to be the culprit and someone here can then have a better idea what exactly it is you are dealing with and you can take a picture of the one your bought or the package. There are very good picture tutorials online on how to replace fans but as stated working with power supplies can be very dangerous. The other fans are not that difficult to replace. Personally I would consider replacing the entire power supply on a pc that old since it will likely go bad soon anyway and is probably much less powerful than the ones used today so you could upgrade to a much better power supply and that task is easier to take on. here is a step by step with pics for replacing a power supply fan. Computer Power Supply Fan Replacement Here is a nice one with pics for how to replace the entire power supply How To Replace Your Power Supply Keep in mind that pc is quite old and out dated so decide just how much you are willing to put into it. I definitely would take up Owbist on his offer!

Thanks for the replies everyone. Faron79- My exact thought was replacing the sheetrock, but my husband doesn't share that thought, lol. I didn't mention, we also remodeled that bathroom when we cleaned and painted, we replaced the vanity, toilet, shower, tile, lighting, ect. So he's not too thrilled at the idea of starting over in there, yet. As far as the surfactant bleed, I'm not sure. We gave the bathroom almost 4 weeks after painting to cure before moving back from the hall bath and running water/showers in there because my husband was plumbing/tiling in there only on his days off and it took 3-4 weeks. I sprayed a touch of windex all purpose cleaner (it was the closest cleaner I had) and wiped a large area with some clean paper towels it came off brown/yellow color, and the paint is a gray-purplish color. The reason I really noticed it in the shower was a bead of water that had a brown tint ran down from the paint above the shower. Does this sound like nicotine or surfactant? I can't re-paint in there for a couple of weeks anyway so I'll have time to see what it does. Thanks again everyone!

Kitchen: Think this through: The kitchen is the hardest working room in the house. It's the room where you're working, cleaning, trying to be efficient and fast -- and you're saying you care more about LOOKS than FUNCTION in this room, of all rooms? No, no, you really don't want this. Why is the kitchen not functional? Angled cabinets are expensive, yet they provide less storage than standard cabinets. The island (which is too small to support 4 stools) is placed at such a way that it blocks comfortable access to the kitchen; the aisles on each side are too narrow. You have no work zones, so you'll be walking back and forth across the room constantly -- too many extra steps. I see that you intended the kitchen to be the bright, shining jewel of this house ... but, really, it isn't. I suggest you ditch the idea of the SHAPE and focus on BRIGHT and FAKE the shape a bit. Keep the room square /rectangle, but angle your corners and go with LOTS of windows and no upper cabinets. Without uppers, you'll need to consider a modest-sized pantry too. Other downstairs notes: - Why set the dining room off with walls? You won't have space to move around the table comfortably, and in a house this size, you really need to consider going with open floorplan. I suggest that you go with an L-shaped banquette table in that corner. It'll take less space and everyone loves them. - The stairs aren't working. I'd consider an L-shaped stair hugging the lower right corner ... then tuck the desk UNDER the stairs. This'll save space and look cute. - The living room is sort of squished into the back end of the house ... and then you have empty space towards the front of the house. I'd consider going with a window seat (great space saver) and going with more of a rectangle shape for this room. - Coat closet by the door? Storage for games, books, movies, and other things you want in the living area? - The bathroom doesn't work in its present spot. I wonder if it could scoot over near the front door, providing a bit of a barrier between the entry room and the dining room. - You need a back door somewhere. I'm pretty sure two exits are a standard "must have" for fire safety. Upstairs: - The kids rooms are too small, and I'm not in the camp of "kids need a full-sized suite!" If you're going to stick to something this small, consider giving the kids toddler beds once they're out of cribs ... then loft the beds when the kids are older. Note that the kids don't have dressers or desks in these rooms, and their closets are SMALL. Large closets make it possible for kids to keep their rooms clean. Getting larger closets for both of these rooms will be easy: For one room, steal space from the hallway -- you don't need a hallway going all the way to the end of the house for no reason. And the other room can get a good-sized closet using the space over the top of the stairs. - Actually, all the bedrooms are too small. A twin bed is 75" long, a queen or king is 80" long, and that's just the mattress -- not the bedframe. So you'll have 18" at the foot of the bed, not enough room for those double doors to open. A tiny bedroom would have 3' at the foot of the bed -- a comfortable bedroom would have 5' at the foot of the bed. - Size is a big issue throughout this plan. Start measuring things around your house -- it'll help you start to develop a sense of how big things realistically are. Sure, you could build your stairs 30" wide and allow only 18" to scoot around the island into the kitchen, but in the long run, you won't like it. - On the subject of the master bedroom door, you probably don't want it to open straight across from one of the kids' bedrooms. As they get older, that'll be a privacy issue. - The bathroom needs some work too, given that it's going to be shared by the whole family. It's not a bad size, but you have lots of wasted space in the middle of the bath ... and no storage at all. I'd try to go with a split bath: half bath for the parents' room, half bath for the kids from the hall, shared bath in the middle.

Hi Yep shes done. The fruit looks ok so all you can do now is wait and see if the bananas puff up and turn yellow . Could be a month or 6 depending on the cultivar . Do you remember how long the took to ripen last time ? Post pictures at bananas.org there is an Id thread, someone may be able to identify it, they love to help and its more active than here. Next time she flowers don't cut any leaves that still have some green, they still are producing as long as there is some green left. I know some people like their trees nice and neat but the leaves are the engines so be conservative when your trimming, especially once they fruit. More leaves equal better fruit. You have pups so keep up watering and fertilizing and the next batch will be bigger. Bananas need sun, water and compost ( fertilizer ) Good luck
