    CompTIA guidelines strongly teach that you should replace the whole power supply. The filter capacitors inside the power supply enclosure hold a high charge. If you touch the wrong thing, there's a good chance that you will be electrocuted.

    Also, not sure you can find a fan and probably more frustration than it would be worth.

    Be careful!!

    DO NOT, REPEAT DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHANGE THE FAN!! Power supplies aren't that pricey, and unless your a highly trained/expierience professional at it, you will most likely end up extra tastey cripsy (do they have Kentucky Fried Chicken outside of the U.S.?).
