my computer gets hot as fuck. the internal fan broke and im not even sure if its still in their. my sister gave it to me and said that she had it looked at, but didnt say weather or not it was taken out. i plan on going inside to investigate, but, if its not their or is beyond repair what would be better:

putting a homemade fan on the bottom to blow air in, or using the fan to suck air out?

Wrong forum, first thing. But if you're talking about the CPU fan being broken, just carefully remove it (along with the heatsink) and take it to your local computer store and tell them the fan is broken and see what they'll sell you. If you mean the power supply fan, you're pretty much stuck getting a new power supply. The good thing is that they're pretty much universal (if you have a P4 system, you need the extra P4 plug, other than that they're universal.)

Jesus, why do we keep getting stuff clearly from other forums in here?

Anyway I think T&T suits this best.
