Did you replace the broken hard disk ribbon cable? No, that can't be replaced, but this fellow did a fine job soldering the three broken conductive thingies, and it works, though I wouldn't dare put any pressure on it. Now if only someone could do something about the fact that my display's hinges are completely broken and the display is totally loose and looks like it will fall off and break in a minute...and I tilt it by tying a string to it and the other end to a window gate...but it only has to last another 2 months! ) Truly, this laptop has to be seen to be believed! But I'm a strong believer in using something until it dies, as long as it gets the job done for me. Please post a good photo of it! |
