Solve : laptop help??

Answer»

H'ok so i have this peice for a laptop right, its an hp ze44.. something right i got it out of the trash so i cant complain but i could fix it if i could get the case off ..there in lays my problem i really want to fix it cause a laptop would be nice, but there is like a screw i cant find right in the MIDDLE right around where that weird mouse green thing would be, and i cannot for the life of me figure it out if anyone has any IDEAS i have loads of time and an open mind. any help would be super and i will love you till you die and/or tell me that its creepy that i love you. right thanksits probably under a STICKER. that is if u r talking about TAKING the laptop case off. companies place a sticker over 1 if not 2 screws so they know if u opened it or not. (its a warrenty issue). push on the sticker and MOVE ur finger around it, u will feel a bowled area where the screw is.naw there is only on sticker on the bottom, i checked it tho and there isnt anything underneath it thanks tho.With many laptop chassis you have to lever the keyboard out in order to access those elusive screws. Does that look possible with this model?im sorry i know next to nothing about laptops, you mean like remove the keys?You might find the help you need here:

Doc
naw nothing about the screw, i doubt there is still a warranty left on it. I dont know the exact model like i said i got it for free.Which screw on page 2-27 are you talking about?

There is probably a reason it was in the trash. You may have found it. i cant find any pages of screws or any listings of them, it was in the trash because the ac/dc jack on the mother board had fried or was broken, but im not there yes i need the last screw or so, pcdoc4christ if u could give me a link to what your refering to that would be great.I suspect it was fried then, and that was the reason. Good luck.

So you have never attempted a repair on a laptop?gahh no i learn as the opsticles present themselves, gotta get the experience from somewhere, and if i even get a grasp on what im doing i doubt my soldering job will be exemplory. but hey its broken now, cant get worseQuote

...pcdoc4christ if u could give me a link to what your refering to that would be great.

See the link in my previous post.

All of the keys are usually attached to a single piece of plastic/metal. Often that can be levered away from the case once the correct screws have been removed. Don't force it though.
