Hi Steve. Thanks.All straight So first to put heatsink past I'd see that the 2 fans really work well. Because first time I open and They doesn't seem broken but I don't see if they turn well. It seems that notebook is more hot near second fan. So Can I open notebook and turn on it? Are you sure that I don' get an electric shock? thanks a lot f.t.
