I am starting to experiment with a used 7600 and have noticed it has an
annoying, noisy fan (I think).  Has anyone ever opened one of these up and
replaced parts?  Is there a manual on line that is useful?  Are parts easily
available?

 

Thanks.

Hi Paul,

The fan problem is not uncommon on both 7600 and 9600 machines. 
Sometimes they quiet down a bit after they've been running a while, 
and sometimes they're too annoying and just need to be replaced ;>)

Here's a URL for a very good service manual:

http://web.archive.org/web/20030812073637/www.visual-
artists.com/Manuals/SP76_9600_A.pdf

It's an 18 meg pdf, so it takes a while to download but is fairly 
complete with exploded service diagrams, etc. The fans are pretty 
easy to access and not too difficult to replace.

In terms of parts, I have found that Compass Micro 
(www.compassmicro.com) is very reasonable, has good inventory levels 
and are very helpful to work with.

Hope this is of assistance to you...
