Schwierigkeitsgrad

Easy

Schritte

Zeitaufwand

1 Minute

Einleitung

You may need to replace this board if there is something wrong when charging your device.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Locate the battery and the battery tabs on the bottom of the Compaq Mini.

Schritt 2

Push both tabs inward simultaneously and slide the battery out.

Schritt 3

Use a Philips #0 screwdriver to unscrew the two screws covering the memory compartment on the bottom of the laptop and remove the cover.

Schritt 4

Push out the side tabs simultaneously and pull out the old RAM module.
When inserting a new RAM stick, be sure to evenly insert the gold pins in the same orientation that the old module was removed. While sliding the module in, press the side tabs in place.

Schritt 5

Remove the rubber pads located on the corners of your Compaq Mini.
There may be junk underneath it. This is residue left from the glue that held on the rubber pad. Just scrape it away to find the screw.

Schritt 6

Unscrew all the corner screws. There are four total, one under each rubber pad.

Schritt 7

Unscrew the screw for the bottom case located in the RAM compartment.

Falta um passo, pois nos modelos COMPAQ MINI 110, existe um parafuso que segura o teclado, que se encontra bem escondido dentro da cavidade que encaixa a bateria.

Schritt 8

Remove the three screws in the silver tabs at the back of the keyboard.
These are located at the back of the base under the screen.
Lift the keyboard away from the laptop.

3 screws in red circles are actually on metal tabs in the battery compartment, 1 deeper than the other 2. There is a keyboard symbol for each of the 3 screws.

Step 8B: Lift out keyboard by pushing upwards on the 2 accessible metal tabs. This is the most difficult step. Lack of Quality Control during assembly may prevent the kevboard from lifting out without breaking!!

This step may be performed after battery removal. Use care when removing ribbon cable: the white clips holding the black plastic "keeper" are fragile. Reassembly possible without white clips; however, jostling may cause the ribbon to come free.

Pry up the top plastic cover using a spudger.
These two tabs under the screen need to be pushed in with a spudger.

Detach the cables.

I am so glad I found your website. I took my netbook in to a computer shop and told it would cost me $122 dollars to fix this power board piece. My AC Adapter socket is loose and wont hold the ac adapter plug anymore. To say the least, I was quite unhappy with that expense, as I only paid a couple of hundred dollars for this new. So, I bought the replacement piece on eBay for 12 dollars and will use this wonderful guide to fix this on my own. Even though I have done minor drive and cable changes in larger computers, I feel that your instructions are super easy and even an amateur like myself should be able to accomplish good results. Thank you.
