Introduzione
The fan is a crucial in keeping the laptop cool. Dust on the fan can cause the motherboard to overheat. A broken fan can also cause overheating, which will cause the laptop to shut down unexpectedly. By the design of the Dell Studio 1558, it is hard to get to the fan. Part of the tearing down process is removing the laptop's casing, in order to get to the motherboard. It is important that you never use too much force in any step. Too much force could cause parts to break.
