I have an ATI Fire GL X1 AGP Pro graphics card and the fan is making noise.
In fact it's been making noise now for almost a year, but it used to be just
when I started it after it had been shut down for a while. Now, it's doing it
constantly. If you can take a look at it on ATI's website, what do you think
about taking the fan off and replacing it with a Zalman GPU fan. Or is it
possible to do that with this card?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, attilathehun1

You should ask this in a hardware group or forum, probably one focused on
ATI. This has nothing to do with Windows XP or Microsoft products.

This Google search produced a lot of likely looking places:
