Fans in a mobile computer are essential to keep critical devices cool. It is important to understand that failure of one cooler can lead to irreparable consequences. Video adapters and processors are most often damaged due to overheating.
Necessary
- - screwdriver;
- - metal spatula;
- - thermal paste;
- - Everest.
Instructions
Step 1
Install the Everest software. It is necessary to determine the temperature of some elements of the mobile computer. Run the utility and open the "Sensor" menu. Find equipment that is hotter than normal.
Step 2
Turn off your mobile computer. Disconnect the power supply from the device. Remove the battery from the compartment. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the desired screws from the laptop case.
Step 3
Remove the components that are blocking the disassembly of the laptop case. Typically these devices are memory modules, a hard drive, and a DVD drive. Use a metal spatula to separate the bottom and top of the body. You can also use a flat head screwdriver. Please be aware that this will increase the risk of scratches on your device.
Step 4
Usually, before the final disassembly of the case, you need to disconnect several cables. Follow this procedure using long narrow tweezers. Find the faulty cooler and unplug the power cable. Remove the fan. Explore the type of cooler mounts. Purchase a similar device.
Step 5
Sometimes, when replacing the CPU fan, you will also need to purchase a new heatsink. In this situation, be sure to apply a new layer of thermal paste to the surface of the processor. Install new hardware.
Step 6
Connect the cables, assemble the laptop case. Connect the rest of the mobile computer. Plug in the power supply and turn on the laptop. Start the Everest program. Check the temperature of the desired device.
Step 7
Install the Speed Fan program and configure the cooler operation parameters. This will increase the speed of the blades as the temperature of the equipment rises.
