I sent a RMA request to ATi and got the number. The fan was, in fact,
stopped when I checked it last. I guess as long as I'm not taxing the video
system too badly the heat won't hurt it -- at least as far as ATi's
concerned, they'll repair whatever is wrong with it when they get it back
I'd sure like to see the HDTV Wonder/AIW 9600 combo release -- I'd buy one
in a flash and THEN send my 9000Pro back for fan repair...
