Hey Guys,
I took on a project fixing a computer for someone. It is a 2 year old Dimension E520. The CPU/Case Fan is horribly loud, spinning at full speed after bios and must be dying. I would just replace it, however, it uses Dell's ingenious proprietary 5pin 4wire technology.
I have tried using speedfan to control the speed, but it does not want to work. Does anyone know where I can get a dell fan, or experience with this issue?
