If your input power supply is only good for 500mA then 1A might damage it. You might be better off not using a fan since the 7805 overheating will shut it down preventing the power supply from damage.
 
I never said i was going to use 1A. I took the fan off, it was creating too much electrical noise, and i didn't feel like dealing with that.
