    I wonder if it would be possible for someone to either create a thread or direct me to a thread on how to clean the structure of my asus g1s as in Fans and such. The cleaning threads that I've read so far don't really apply to my G1s as the structure is quite different and I am afraid to damage my laptop.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    The back panel comes off with a few screws, and then you blow compressed air at the fans/CPU/GPU etc.

    Already did that, but I want to actually remove that fan to give it a very thorough cleaning.

    Search for "G1S disassembly manual" on google, maybe you'll get lucky...

    If the backpanel comes off, isn't there some easy way to remove the FAN from that point? On my V6J it's very easy. On my M6Ne, however, it is not...
