Hi,
My PNY GeforceFX 5200 128mb AGP video card's fan is dying so I bought another fan but I don't know how to install it. The fan also comes with memory heatsinks and I don't know how to install them. (the fan came with no instructions) Here is the link for the fan: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=35-116-008&depa=0 thanks, MOHAA
