So basicly i cleaned my brother his desktop-pc its a acer, aspire but what ever. so basicly i un-screw the fan and all the dust is gone now, after cleaning it. The fan keeps making a huge noise and keeps spinning! all i did : Took the fan out carefully , Screw it back on ! Please let me know if any of u had this problem before, and how to fix this? Thanks.
You proably screwed it on too tight.
Okai thanks i will screw it back a little looser tommorow and see if it worked, thanks :'3 .

[QUOTE=bohb;34484049]Yeah, it's probably hitting the safety grille or the fan power wires.[/QUOTE] uh-oh if it is that will just screwing it back looser help it? Or do i need to buy a new fan :$.

Just make sure nothing is touching the fan (Like a cord). If there's a free RAM slot and the RAM you have is DDR3, it should work just fine.

[QUOTE=Siemz;34484621]uh-oh if it is that will just screwing it back looser help it? Or do i need to buy a new fan :$.[/QUOTE] Computer fans need to be secured somewhat tightly since they aren't precisely balanced and will always vibrate. If they have enough room to oscillate, they will make an annoying buzzing sound.
The computer fan was screwed a little bit more to the right, what made it like this : "/" now i screwed it back on lighter and more straigt its like this : "|" and now the noise is mostly gone thanks alot for all your help, problem solved :D
No problem!
if leveling fixed it then I guess it's not the same issue I had, accidentally spun a fan using an air compressor and completely fucked up the bearings :v:

Uhh, you can't fit laptop RAM into a desktop. It just wont fit.
[QUOTE=Chubbs;34571356]Uhh, you can't fit laptop RAM into a desktop. It just wont fit.[/QUOTE] Yeah i found that out, but now im wondering if i can build in the Hard disc, and hard drive :P
[QUOTE=Siemz;34571549]Yeah i found that out, but now im wondering if i can build in the Hard disc, and hard drive :P[/QUOTE] Hard Disc=Hard Drive. You could stick it in but there isn't a lot of point unless it's huge as laptop HDD's are so fucking slow.
[QUOTE=Chubbs;34571723]Hard Disc=Hard Drive. You could stick it in but there isn't a lot of point unless it's huge as laptop HDD's are so fucking slow.[/QUOTE] about 160 GB , but the desktop realy needs it since lot of music etc.
