Pavilion 570-056

I need to know which cpu fan to purchase for my Pavilion. I have searched but cannot one specific for 570-056. I am getting a fan error message on startup sporadically. Thank you

@jld45,

Can a can of compressed air, and clean the fan blades. Be sure to keep the blades from spinning, as that will over torque the bearings.  If that does not help, then it is time to unscrew the fan assembly. Your NOT removing the heatsink, just the fan. Somewhere on the fan there is a number.  Typically the RPM is 700-3800.

That fan is a 4 wire PWM fan, and can be purchased on-line.  How to measure a fan.
