Okay, so first let me explain what is wrong with my currently 25% working macbook pro.
1.
It has no screen, i currently just use a mini-displayport to vga port that somewhat works with my current "monitor" (its actually a 19" tv).
2.
The performance of it has gone down alot. I use to be able to play games (GTA:SA, Gunz, etc.) on the Windows 7 at around 30-60fps, now i cant play it at more then 15. All my applications on the mac side show a significant loss in performance too. Such as premiere pro, before it ran perfectly, now it lags my entire computer.
3.
The exhaust fan (the only fan that i know of) has tons of problems. I dont know if its the sensor, or what. But it never goes above 1300rpm. I've had it go to about 103c and the fans went down to about 100-0rpm. Sometimes (even under no load at all) it goes up to 6000+rpm and makes an odd sound that i dont think it should be making. I would get a audio recording but it only happens for about 5-10 seconds. As soon as it does that, the temps go down and my computer gets faster, then after about 1 minute of doing that it suddenly goes down to 0rpm. This has happened to me before, only on a worse scale. When it happened, the fan was always at 0rpm, and it got hot enough to where it shut off.
I have a 13 inch Mid-2009 lowest end MacBook Pro, dualbooting Lion 10.7 and Windows 7 Ultimate.
How should i go about repairing my beloved laptop without an apple repair (i live miles from the nearest apple store, and im out of my apple care)?
