Hello friends! I am looking for advice. My poor old laptop (it's at least 6-7 years, a hand-me-down from the husband) had been making this grinding noise for some time. He told me the hard drive was going to fail, but just make sure everything was backed up and when it went he could replace it himself (I know absolutely nothing about computers).
So it appears he was wrong. This morning I go to start it, but it makes the grinding sound, beeps twice, flashes 'fan error' and shuts down. I guess it was the fan all along.
Can this be fixed? Will it be too expensive to be worth fixing? Do I need to start saving for another one?
