    Any one know a place where I can order a replacement fan for the M860TU/ETU?Mine has started to make a grinding noise, I've taken it apart, cleaned it oiled it and it still makes that noise.It does spin normally and there no changes in temps.

    My reseller wont sell me lose parts, so I'm kinda clueless on what to do next.

    bro-han, you're still under warranty, it's covered. This happened to me, xoticpc sent me 2 new fans for free for my m860tu.

    You're still under warranty, so send it in and let them deal with it.

    he's gotta be in warranty. My m860tu was in the first shipment and I still am :) Battery life achieved by undervolting and underclocking gpu (first state only! max state is overclocked/ov), using an ssd, powersaver mode, silent mode, and a few other small tweaks :D
