[QUOTE="Joe Redifer, post: 1292513, member: 36328"] My Mac Pro must be the only one with a metal shield blocking fan removal. Check out this picture: [img]http://www.joeredifer.com/crap/macinnards.jpg[/img] The screw is removed (point [b]A[/b]). But the fan goes underneath this metal shield (point [b]B[/b]) and will not budge as long as this shield is in place. I cannot remove the shield and there seems to be no way to. Apple REALLY doesn't want me in there. Also, where are these service manuals? I tried looking twice at the Mac Pro section on the site that chscag linked to above, but no luck. Maybe a direct link instead of just a link to the front page? [/QUOTE]
