hey guys, woke up this morning to hear like a noise coming from my pc, i opened it up and its coming from the fan. it sounds as though the fan is loose so i turned of my pc and the fan is actualy easily pulled off. its the fan at the back of my aguila case, is it supposed to be easily pulled of like that its like theres just a rubber ring inside if the actual fan that holds it on but it easily just slides on and off. is it faulty as ive had the pc a few months now

dunno how the fans are mounted in that case, but usually they are fastened with screws. try to rmount it and see if the problem persists. if a bearing on the fan is messed up, you'll have to buy a new one (fans are cheap anyhow, $ 10 a pop for a decent one)

_{once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.}

If it's loose there you need a new one, sounds like the bearing has gone.
Go to a small shop to get one.
My last one a 120mm only cost £3.
