Greetings,
A few days ago my chipset fan failed on my motherboard (see sig). My computer manufacturer sent me a new replacement one, with no problems what-so-ever, however I am having a heck of a time removing the old one from my motherboard. One of the pins came out but the other is still stuck in there. I have heard some horror stories about people having to remove their whole motherboard to replace this fan.... my question: Is there any way to easily remove this fan with damaging anything or removing my motherboard? Great thanks to anyone who can help!!!!
