I hope i was pretty clear about the type of machine (SGI Challenge
S) :-)
Actually, it was quite easy to misinterpret the title as "challenge s"
being a synonym for "difficulty". Sorry about that. Capitalizing might
have helped a little, but not necessarily enough at the beginning of the
line. Perhaps "nonworking fan in SGI Challenge S"?
What else can you tell us about that fan?
Will other fans FIT? ("Dude, you're getting a Dell"?)
Is it a good enough one to warrant the effort of trying to fix it, rather
than replacement?
How are the bearings in it?
Does it TRY to turn?
Continuity?
Shorts?
