First, if it is a fan problem, fix it quick.
Second, be sure it is the fan in the power supply or where ever
Packard Bell chose to put it.  These large fans are generally very
reliable.  But there are some Pentium fans with sleeve bearings that
intermittantly make a very loud noise.  You are going to need to run
the computer with the covers off while it is making the noise to be
sure you are replacing the correct fan.  Have fun.
