Hello,

Does anybody know where I can find pictured instructions of replacing
cooling fan in Toshiba Satellite Pro M10 notebook? Is it hard to do or
is it piece of cake?

Thanks for reply.

hi,

i'm going through exactly the same experience. I came across this
motherboard replacement guide which is relevant.

http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptop...otherboard.htm

looks like a major effort to get to the fan - you finally get there by
page 3.

i've obtained a replacement fan but need to buy a fine enough
screwdriver so am holding off a few days b4 going in.

i'd welcome hearing how you get on and happy to colaborate.

good luck.

Hi,

Thanks for link! Sorry I didn't reply so long. I'll be back when I
finally replace my fan.

Thank you and have a good day!

....I'm afraid I won't finish at step 3.

.... where did you get a suitable cooling fan from for the SP M10? I am
searching for a genuine Toshiba one for my SP M10. German dealer
preferred. :)

TIA,
Joachim
