I have an IBM ThinkPad T42. When I press the power on button, I get two beeps, and the words "Fan Error" on the screen. After about 30 seconds, the system powers itself off.
I have tried it with and without the AC power; both ways fail the same way. I blew air into the opening on the left hand side of the case. That did not help any. I assume I need to take the unit apart and clean the fan. Anything easier to try first? --- Fred J.
