[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1210287, member: 46727"] Call the folks at Powerbookmedic.com and ask. I believe they still have an 800 number for tech support. Here it is: 1-866-726-3342 The fan bearing is probably dry. You may be able to carefully put some lubricant back into it. Sewing machine oil works well if you use a small eye dropper. Just make sure no oil gets on the board. You may have to completely remove the fan first - which is probably the best way to do it. [/QUOTE]
