Even though Satellite M35 sounds almost like Satellite M35X, it’s a completely different model and requires different disassembly steps.
Hard drive, DVD drive, wireless card, both memory stick, battery and modem in this model are accessible from the bottom of the laptop.
In order to replace the cooling fan, you’ll have to disassemble the whole thing apart.
This model has video card with dedicated memory integrated into the motherboard. If your laptop suddenly started displaying some strange symbols or symmetrical vertical lines on the screen, probably it happens because of faulty video memory. Test your laptop with an external screen and check if the same defect appears on the external video. If it does, it’s a problem with onboard video card. In this case you’ll have to replace the whole motherboard.
