Whatever happened to the Midnight AC dude? LOL.
Hopefully it's just another leak in the system that they can repair quickly. I am sure by now they have it being worked on.

My bet is tomorrow morning at the earliest. Even once they get it running it will need time to cool everything down enough to start up again.

We're back!!! Still not uploading but at least it's running on the message boards.

That is usually the first thing to look at, but I just did that about two weeks ago, and after 6 months of heavy use, there was almost no dust on the heatsinks at all. It was just the powdery kind of dust and not the hairy kind, even though I have two dogs and two cats. The filtered 5-1/4 bay covers take care of all the hair.
Problem is that I have been using a 28-inch box fan for about two years, and had it positioned to suck all the heat from the exhaust fans and blow it out into the hallway, which is where the return for the central heat/air is. Well that fan was about 12 years old and collectively over the years, I had put about 9 years of run-time on it, and the bushings started squeaking, so I took the motor apart and coated the surfaces with wheel bearing grease. It worked for about two days, started squeaking again, and then just locked up. So now I'm not pulling the heat out from behind the rig.
I was hoping having the window open with it being 30F outside would be enough, but apparently not.
