Yes, you can.
A Power supply will cost you about 25.00, a fan about 3 dollars.
How To:
- Unplug your ps cables to drives and motherboards
- unscrew ps from case ( at the back - 4 screws )
- Open ps unscrewing the little screws
- unscrew the fan ( 1 tapping screws at each corner )
- cut the red & black wire, leaving a good lenght attached to the PS.
- Get replacement fan in any decent computer store ( example:
http://www.megapc.com/product.asp?pf_id=fan%2Dzal01 but way too expensive)
- cut connector of new fan
- twist wires of the same color, cover joint with electrical tape
- re-assemble
Your are back in business.
