HP Pavilion g6-1b50us: My fan is malfunctioning, how do I replace it?

Sun, 09 Nov 2014 00:10:56 -0700

My fan usually gets really hot, even when nothing is running on my computer. Also, when my desk gets bumped or knocked, the fan makes a god-awful noise and vibrates a lot until I restart my computer.

Does anyone have any tips in fixing this problem, if not how do I replace my fan?

HP Pavilion g6-1b50us: How do I repair a broken screen?

Thu, 24 May 2018 07:15:46 -0700

I cracked the screen on this laptop and now there is a big black blob on the top right corner. The laptop is running fine and I can do everything I used to do before it was cracked. Geek squad said it would be cheaper to buy a new laptop than it would be to fix this one but I don't believe them. If I can do it myself, would be better than wasting this laptop. Where would I get the screen and how would I replace the screen?

I was playing with batch files and accidentaly created a 0 byte, no extention file.

I googled the problem and I found out that closing explorer.exe and deleting the file via command would help. Tried that. It didn't help. Any software that could do it? Any other suggestions?
