Einleitung

This replacement guide is for the motherboard of the HP Envy x360 m6-w103dx. All you need to complete this guide is a plastic opening tool, a #0 Phillips screwdriver, and an anti-static wrist strap.

Wear the anti-static wrist strap and attach it to a metal surface to avoid damaging sensitive electrical components. Make sure the computer is unplugged and powered off before touching any internal parts.

The motherboard isn’t a hazardous component to handle, but it is connected to many critical parts of the computer and must be removed with care.

    • Using an opening pick, remove the 4 rubber feet and 4 screw covers.

    • Open the laptop carefully, with the keyboard face up.

    • Pry around the outside of the keyboard with the plastic opening tool until the keyboard can be lifted slightly.

    • When lifting the keyboard do not pull too hard. There are cables that must be disconnected before the keyboard can be removed.

    • Lift the keyboard until you can see the cables connected to the motherboard.

    • Gently lift the tab on each ZIF connector that connects each cable to the motherboard using a spudger. Once each tab is flipped up, the corresponding ribbon cable will come out easily.

    • Detach the keyboard.

    • Disconnect the pin head battery connection to remove power from the motherboard.

    • Unscrew the five 4mm screws holding the motherboard in place using a #0 Phillips screwdriver.

    • It's possible the positions of the screws will be different on your board. If the motherboard resists lifting, double-check that all screws have been removed.

    • Remove the five flat ribbon cables by gently lifting the head of the cable up and back.

    • Remove the two remaining multicolored ribbon cables by pulling the white plastic head backwards.

    • Do not pull directly on the wires.

    • If the head of the multicolored ribbon cable doesn't come out, try gently wiggling it side to side as you pull.

    • Lift the motherboard up from the left side at a shallow angle.

    • Gently pull the motherboard to the left and gently wiggle it side to side until the ports on the right side of the board detach from the case.

    • Ensure the laptop is well supported, as the motherboard is a heavy component and removing it may make the laptop off-balance.

Abschluss

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Can I Change the graphics card only?

Is there a way to fix only the graphics card?

Frank -

I wonder if it’s possible to solder on an M.2 header on that SSD1 spot on the board.
