Hello,
I have an SX164 Alpha machine, and I'm pretty sure that the CPU fan is
going bad. I've had the machine for 2 1/2 years now, and the CPU fan has
been making noise, on and off, for the past few months. The noise is
less frequent now, but the computer doesn't stay up for much longer than
30-60 minutes at a time anymore, which seems to either be a
circulation/temperature problem or, after searching through the
archives, a problem with the CPU fan not spinning fast enough anymore.
So, assuming that the CPU fan is the culprit (feel free to correct me if
you think i'm wrong), where would I find one of them? At first I thought
that they would be a pretty generic fan, but after looking around, I
haven't found any at all. Where would be a good place to look? The one
place that I haven't tried yet is the company listed in the manual that
I received with my computer since they're not geographically near me and
they don't seem to have a web site. Any leads? (no pun intended)
Thanks in advance,
Matt
