I decided on cleaning my laptop fans today, which I’ve been procrastinating for about a year now because of this one screw. But I just can’t seem to open this with my screwdriver, since whatever I did back when I last opened it it’s nearly circular now. Is there a way to unscrew this?
It’s easier not to clean them. I throw down tin foil before I make paninis in my hp laptop, because THAT’S ALL THEY’RE FUCKING GOOD FOR.
Well my HP 250 G5 still somewhat works. The touchpad has serious ghost-touch problems and the housing is falling apart from just 2 disassemblies.
Keeps your house warm in the winter too.
Yep, I replaced the fan after 1,5 (or 1.5) years with a cheap aliexpress one and this one works way better than the original, but it’s still very loud and could actually be used as a heater for a small room. Plus I forgot, the DVD drive died last year and I won’t be replacing it.
