I have a Gateway MP6954 w/ 2GB of RAM. It's present OS is Windows XP SP3. The fan died a few days ago and I've ordered a new one. However, when I checked the hardware manual, it gave no instructions for replacing the fan. Does anyone know how to do this or is there a guide available?

Dont have the specific manual/instructions, but you need to get to the heatsink/CPU area in order to replace the fan. On gateway machines, this means sometimes removing the keyboard to get to it. Take pictures along the way, so you can trace the re-assembly. Browse the section, and use other dissassembly on other comps as reference. Good lucks.
