My computer was working fine, but was very dusty. So I took it apart and blew out all the dust and cleaned it real good. Put it back together and now it's louder than ever. Don't know if I damaged the fan or didn't put it back together correctly. Any advice?? Thanks
sounds like the fan is on its last stand..replace it..

if the fan sound is very loud, there might be 2 probabilities-
1) you haven't connected it roperly-
2) the fan is losing its life-
so its better to replace it as you can get it for lower prices everywhere..!!
Check that the fan is not hitting any wires in side the case.
If not you may have disoriented the fins while cleaning them. Make sure the fins are not hitting the fan body.
If the fan wasn't installed property the CPU temprature should rise fast and your computer might automatically shut down to prevent damage to the CPU. If that is the case, try reinstalling it making sure it's attached well to the CPU. And remember to add some thermal compound to help the heatsink transfer heat.
If none have solved your problem you can buy a new fan for your CPU at any computer store. Make sure it's compatable with your CPU socket type.
