PCs aren't built to be operated in a computer server room.
As for the multiple posts: I am having problems with the news server
and its confirmations. This is coming via Google Groups.
Yes, that will run vista but make sure you upgrade the memory to at
least 2 GB but preferably 4. Also upgrade graphics card if you don't
have a good one already. If your hard drive is ropey, replace that as
well. As you see, it might be an idea to just get a new PC.

PC's are computers just the same as a server. A P4-3+GHz is a high end CPU,
same as a server. They run HOT! What part don't you get?
The little window in the side of the case as per Intel spec is of little
help. You need to change the heat-sink to a very large heat-pipe with fan
unit, which makes the Intel spec case useless, or go to a liquid cooling
system which is very expensive.
Running the computer in a ambient room temperature of 60 to 65 degrees
fahrenheit knocks off 10 degrees from the max temperature. This applies to
*ALL* computers. Read your CPU spec sheet, they do not recommend running a
computer at any temperature above 95 degrees fahrenheit. Comprendi?
