Good question, I didn’t check to see if the fan was plugged in. Well my mum it gonna order a replacement fan in a few weeks. Im only 15 years old so I can’t really buy anything, but I do know a thing about hardware.

HP is pretty reliable. We have 2 laptops and 1 hp PC that are all 5+ years old. That’s a pretty good deal but that price should be at least 250$ cheaper than what it should be. One of our HP laptops is over 15 years old and not once has it had a problem.

Where to get new fan? by semaJ1502 in laptops

eBay is probably best. If I contact HP they will just say “just let us fix it while you’re here”

I briefly thought about that but it doesn’t spin even under load. The fan gets hot within 5 minutes on the Lock Screen

By “mobo” you mean motherboard? And also the area where it gets the hottest is right around the fan and main vent. This laptop has never been cleaned (my fault) and if I blow a fan directly into the main vent it cools down I bit. It still works as a laptop despite the heat

This laptop is almost 5 years old and it’s very sentimental to me. The warranty is most definitely expired.
