Title: Noisy Video card fan.
Post by: moonrakermagpie on December 10, 2009, 10:17:13 AM
Hi there,

Two questions.

1) I have a  Hp pavilion 750uk - AMD Athlon 64 3200+ - 512mb DDR - 160gb HDD - NVIDIA GeForce FX5500 - 256mb video memory.

Where can I look for infomation about this PC...technical spec. etc.

Would the Hp web site be a good place.

Have you a better idea!!!

2) This PC has a noisey video card fan, the fan itself feels wobbly when pushed side to side....( is this just the type of fan ??)

Spec:-

Video card - C1VBR0 - HP p/n 5187 - 5256  --  C49S189 -00502    s/n:49CM2M5787 - 

CZB4420J6Y (on bar code label).

FAN - SUNON - Maglev fan - 124010VM - 14.ms.ct.57  -  DC 12v = 1.0w  -  CHO435  zp clx

Can I still purchase a new fan or similar... whefe would be the best place to look.

Many thanks

Steve

Remove the vid card...
Carefully remove the vid card fan...
Take it to your local PC shop and find a match for it..

I've rescued many flakey vid cards this way.
