Hi I have been experiencing fan issues on my fujitsu for a while now, first it began with an overly noisy fan and many fan error notices, but now the fan doesn't even start up anymore.
From the posts I gather I have to send it in for a fixup? Sometimes it gets uncomfortably hot. I don't think my laptop is still under warranty, can anyone give an estimate of how much it might cost to do a fan repair/ replacement, and also how long I'd have it away from me?
My laptop is pretty much screwed up but this is the first major concern. Would be helpful if anyone can also provide information regarding prices to fix the following:
1. Keyboard with unresponsive and some half-responsive (but insensitive keys). Does this require a full keyboard replacement?
2. Charger is pretty much screwed, wire is exposed and it only works if I place the charger in a certain position. I'll almost certainly never get my laptop out of my home if I continue this way.
3. Outer case has a cracked hole in it, and some other scratches (not a major concern)
4. Battery is screwed up, I think I can get about half an hour to an hour on lowest power settings and low workload. (Simple document typing, maybe internet surfing, and with brightness on absolute minimum which means I can barely see.)
Can anyone help with these issues?
Btw if possible can anyone give tips on cracking open my laptop? I'd like to have a look at the fan inside, see what's going on and if I can save it, but I can't seem to get my way through the casing. (I know this sounds pretty lame =O) My warranty is probably already gone so no worries on voiding it I suppose.
With so many crap problems... Is it still worth the attempt salvaging what's left of it?
