Ahh nice clean posts.

It gets annoying clearing out post format each time you quote someone ^^

I would suggest taking apart the computer and cleaning out the fan, if you can do that. I used to HAVE to do that for my Dell like all the time since it would like to overheat.

That's not good.
I hope you fix the problem soon.

I'm sure it's something that you can look up/get fixed then. I'd try to take it apart yourself and see imho. If you don't have the manual I'm sure it's online somewhere.

I tried getting at my fan the other day, its pretty rediculous, I ended up giving up because I didnt want to go far....


To reach the fan you need to

1) remove battery
2) remove wlan cover > remove module
3) remove cd rom
4) remove memory module cover > remove bothm memory modules
5) remove hard drive brackets > remove hard drive
6) remove modem screws > disconnect/remove modem module
7) remove rtc battery
cool remove keyboard screws
9) pry up-then disconnect signal cable and keyboard cable/remove keyboard
10) remove keyboard cover screws x13 > release zif connector > disconnect and remove keyboard cover
11) disconnect wlan cable > disconnect signal cable
12) remove display screws > remove display
13) remove top cover screws/ remove touchpad cables >rmove top cover
14) disconnect usb cable/power cable/audio cable
15) remove mother board screws cables, and then motherboard

THERE THAT FAN IS..... gonk

Seems my laptop is effectivly built around the fan (which does make sense in some ways...but seems most laptops you can remove just one or two covers if you want to reach it....

I had to take my laptop apart once to fix my UBS ports. It was fun and interesting, but at the same time I was scared to sh*t. I was so nervous about breaking the connectors. x.x

Yeah... mess up one pin and your screwed XD, its better to go with someone who knows what they are doing.

I was just pointing out how badly mine is built in respect to getting to the fan.

Some laptops its

Step one...remove fan cover....done.

yeah thats the thing, if just one of the connectors, or pins falls out of allignment, you could mess it up, and have no way of knowing how you messed it up.

Still it is fun to do those things yourself.
