Can I change Fan/Heatsink unit?

Hallo,

I have a R40 2682KCU which is about 5 years old and he began to make occasional horrible noises, which I am sure is that fan because it seems to run more hot than usual. The fan still works and the vents are clear and wonder if I can replace the radiator fan or must it be done by Lenovo or authorized service center.

Thanks a lot for any advice,

Lagoonius

Thanks Jade!

  • Fan/Heatsink Assembly thermal Ribbon

    Hi, I received my fan and heatsink of heat today and inside he received instructions for the application of thermal paste with a syringe which is included in the box. As well as alcahol wipes.

    I don't have a syringe to dough, or wipes. Instead I got what looks like heat, already glued Ribbon on my radiators, what do I do with this, or did HP just send me the wrong compound?

    Thank you, Tim.

    This is the factory applied thermal paste. I think they use a machine to do it. The compound is sticky but is not intended to serve as a glue if that's what you mean. It transfers heat effectively. You see the same type of geometric dab of thermal paste on the standard fan/radiator units equipped with processors in a box. It is intended for one time use. When I was building platforms high performance, that I used to wipe this kind of things off and apply my own money, Arctic, but on a laptop that is not necessary. You could not apply a more perfect amount of cooling made up if you tried. Yet once, in the days when I was building high performance machines, I used 'lap' surfaces from the top of the heart of processor or the cover and the bottom of the radiator using ultrafine or even automobile Emery cloth, Polish, then clean with alcohol and then apply thermal paste. Smooth the surface the better cooling. The surfaces on the fan and the heatsink are smooth already, but you can clean the top of the core processor well with just a little alcohol to remove residues. Then, mount the fan/radiator. Attention with the torque on the screws. Good luck.

  • How can I change the language implemented

    I just bought a second hand MacBook Pro. He had the remains of someone elses account (no iCloud or iTunes, I checked before buying) so I wiped the hard drive and reinstalled the operating system. The only problem is that it's now in Hungarian (I don't speak Hungarian!). There is an option on the first page of the game to the top to select the country (the United Kingdom) but it doesn't seem to be an option to change the language to English and he wants to continue in Hungarian, which is of no use to me. I know that once I get in the right system, can I change the language, but I can't get there. It's my first Mac. In Windows, there is an option to change the language at the beginning of the game, but where is it here?
