Unless you can get that cage open that is the only way that you are
going to be able to replace the fan is to get it directly from
Micron...your first call should have been to Micron to see if that
partituclar part is proprietary...it sounds like it is...

I finally ordered the new case fan and now I can't figure out how to
get it
installed. I feel like such a dunce. I'm not mechanically inclined by
nature
but I know this is a simple problem. I hope I can explain my dilemma
clearly. I have a Micron Millenia XKU 300Mhz tower case. The current
case
fan (which is badly in need of replacing) is inside of a small plastic
cage
that just hooks into the tower case. Here's my problem. I can't see any
way
of opening the small detachable plastic cage to get the new fan inside
it. I
don't want to break it. I called Micron tech support and they said
because
it was and older model (only 3 1/2 years) that they couldn't pull up a
picture of it. So they were no help. Does anyone have a clue as to what
I'm
talking about or is anyone familiar with older Micron cases? The fan
definitely needs to be replaced. It makes terrible thwack, thwack
noises on
startup and stays noisy. Did I make a mistake by not buying the
replacement
fan directly from Micron (that's a whole other story)?
