Im trying to fix my girlfriends mom's computer and I seem to be in a pickle. The heatsink fan has stopped working and have no Idea to which one I need to buy??
Its a Intel Celeron D 340 2.9 GHz...
If you need to know any other information let me know!!
Im looking to purchase from Newegg.com if possible!
Thank you all!

Download cpuz and look on the cpu tab. It's labeled Package.

Thats pretty cool, but I cant download it because the computer "halts" the boot up because of the heatsink fan not working ...

I didn't think about that. Do you know what model the motherboard is or what chipset the motherboard has?

Looks like 775, you'd have to take the black bracket off (to do this, you'd have to take the mobo out, undo the plastic clips behind the mobo for those 4 plastic pins in the black piece, and pull it off, is what I 'm assuming).

Also, is this a prebuilt computer? If so, what brand/model? I can look it up to make sure its 775.
