How about how to open a HP pavillion ze5200? I think I have a dead fan causing an overheat problem.

Thanks,

FYI

The procedure is almost exactly the same as the one already posted. General layout is the same.
So disregard question.

Thanks,
Charley

HP's site, they have the instructions right there, they are just buried in the site quite a bit.....LOL.

Yea, everything is buried in their site. It's hard to find anything.

Where did you find it? I still can't.
