resize pics much? and why dont you use the power off the fan? just tie in to it in parallel you get i think its around like 4.5v

actually that's a 12v point, you can use that, just put the proper ohm resistor inline and you shouldn't have any problems. you could tie into the fan but then you have to worry about changing the resistance, current and voltage values of the fan circuit and can run into problems there.

here's a good pic of the 12v point that was given to me when I started modding my PS2...

oh and seriously, hit up radio shack and spend the $20 on a digital multi meter, they're worth every penny...

JR is right about the fan, but i haven't run in to any problems and when it comes to amperage in fans unless you need the torque its not a big deal
