Just built me a new system and it's working great, except one thing. The LCD temp. display on the front of the case isn't working. I've placed the temp. probe under the cpu and nothing shows up. I read up on Thermaltake's website that on the XaserII cases, if that happens, you probably need to replace the batteries. If so, where in the world would you put the batteries at? Better yet, why would they require a seperate power sourse when I have a 550Watt power source right there? I guess batteries aren't included in this deal. If anybody knows anything about this please share your knowledge. Thanks in advance.

I would guess the batteries are in the controller behind the cpu. They did sort this on the XaserIII which takes power from the main PSU.

Ok I figured it out. The battery is located right behind the LCD display screen (who would've thunk). The case is brand new so I never thought about it having a dead battery, but I guess it does. That sucks royal a$$. Now in order to reach the battery to replace it, I'll have to disconnect my fan, firewire, and front usb ports just to reach it. I think I can do without an LCD readout.

Whoops! I meant the lcd not the cpu but you found it anyway.
