The Force ? I used ot have my case raise doff the ground and used some speaker stands at each end, you could try this provided youve got some hanging about.Quote:

stick it onto a stool?
if nota shelf what can i get in the way of a soundproof mat
Something rubbery? Mayve just a collection of Erasers :)Quote:

I'd guess to stop vibrations travelling through the floor. You could try some soft rubber case feet from QuietPC but I'm not sure how well they work for heavier computers - they have different ones for different weights. http://www.quietpc.com/gb-en-gbp/pro...es/acoustifeet
i can hear it downstairs vibratingQuote:

Google "boogie bug aimb.pad xl"
This is an extra large mouse mat. For around £12 this is probably the easiest and quickest option for you. You can trim the mat to fit under the case. In fact you could probably cut it in half and use two layers.
Here it is to buy but I don't think it would be that effective really. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...odid=KB-000-BB
I have a set of these, and I think they work well

The certainly cut down on the vibration noise of my server on the hard wood floor of my study.
Buy some better fans/floor/ceiling?Quote:
