    Does anyone have instructions or know of any online that teaches you how to replace the fan on the back/left corner of the Sony SZ?

    Think I've got a manual thing for how to disassemble your SZ, and it covers how to take the fan out at some point.

    Can you send it to me? Or anyone? I badly need to replace the fan on my SZ as it's making LOUD noises when the computer is turned on now.

    Guys,

    Keep in mind that this is no easy task. If I remember correctly, the motherboard needs to come out of the computer before you can replace the fan.
