Questions about computer heating up

[deathstar]

So I've come to the conclusion that I need a new power supply, even after opening it up and cleaning the fans, the inner workings are still heating up. I am a little concerned about the workings of the floppy disk heating up though. I have 1 more fan that is installed behind and to the right of the floppy disk area, and everything around tha fan is cool. I am completely illiterate when it comes to computers, so I hope my description of what's going wrong doesn't result in too many face palms!

Thank You

So, if I've got this right, you have a PC, with a PSU (which needs replacing), plus a Disk drive, with a FAN near by which is keeping things pretty cool?

If I'm right....what is the question you have, and the problem?

Is it,

1. What PSU should I buy?
2. Can Floppy Drives over heat? (Also known as "When Floppies Go Bad" with detective John Burnell
3. My whole PC is overheating?

Cheers!

Clockedtohell is right - it's not clear here what the question is!

It should also be pointed out that a PSU will always heat up, it's just a question of whether it is overheating - i.e. causing instability/crashes/excessive fan noise etc. etc... Any or all of those happening to you? Never heard of a floppy drive overheating, that is odd... not sure how much effect it would have on the rest of the system though!


More info please O.P. - to paraphrase Jerry Maguire: "help us help you!"

It's normal for components to get warm inside the PC, sometimes even hot.
