Laptop Repair
I got brave and finally replaced my heatsink fan on our dv9720 Laptop took 4 hours and about 40 plus screw later and a mod for the video chip thermal pad ( made a copper shim to take its place) used Arctic Silver for paste and drop temps about 5-7 degrees ,but its quit no more fan clicking. Most of the time took solder one of the small wires on a plug for the LCD that pulled out of the pin what a job, wish i had loops were using a magnifier to help and finally got it done and a couple shots later of scotch. One glitch was put a longer screw in some were and it was sticking up in the battery compartment and had to take touch panel back off to replace the longer screw.
