Replacing a Zalman PSU cooling fan

Good stuff, thanks. What are the chances that the connector for the fan is removable without cutting and joining? Anybody familiar with the model i have or Zalman PSU fans in general that may know how they've connected it?

Replacing a Zalman PSU cooling fan

I've a have Zalman ZM400B-APS PSU. It's worked great for a few years, but the fan has recently begun to make a lot of noise and i think it needs to be replaced. Reading around on this subject has raised a few questions from me: 1) Are the connectors on PSU cooling fans different from those on...

What would normally be the biggest bottleneck in an older system, preventing it from playing back HD video content smoothly? Is it a CPU thing? Video card? RAM? A combination? Thanks.

I have an Antec Sonata case and the stock 120mm fan might be close to bitting the dust, as the motor has got louder recently. I'd like take the fan out to clean it to see if that would help, but im sure how to unmount it. It uses 4 rubber pegs rather than screws to secure itself to the case...

Is there a feature in Excel that allows you to post a spreadsheet online, and then allow for anyone who can view it, edit it and save? Kind of wikipedia style? If not, does any other spread sheet software or site offer this? Thanks

Want to ID a song

I remember hearing this song way back in the early 90's, but i was too young to pick up on what it was called or who it was by. It definitely sounded R&B, with a similar sound to groups like Color Me Badd. The lyrics i remember were something the lines of: "She's a hell of a girl..."...

I'll probably end up settling for a 17 incher. It's a size that should work well in my workspace, and not be too much of an overwhemling adjustment either. 20" is a tad bit out of my price range (not looking for used, either ;)). Any other suggestions for makes and models? I've long read good...

To show how long it's been with my current fax machine, i didn't even know they now use ink cartridges! I don't think a fax modem is going to work around here, we need this thing in the kitchen where it is easily accessible. I don't believe we will need color either.
