On question 2, I mean to take the side off, and use canned air to get the dust out. That fan in there is the worst. Of course, take all the wires off first, and do it outside or on a porch.
Fan? I used to have a fan on my old PC - I think this one is different.
(I remember the old one started to overheat due to the dust building up on the fan).

I think all PC's have a fan in them. I am talking about a tower, not a laptop or anything.
You may be right - I have this weird computer now called an Acer - it has no tower - it seems like its built in to the back of the screen?
