Laptop Repairs
September 2022
My main HP laptop's right trackpad button stopped working back in August. I thought that it was broken. Later in September a crack developed in the left wrist rest near the trackpad and a noticable bulge under the trackpad appeared. I decided to take it apart and investigate. The 3 cell battery was swollen so I had to order another. The cmos settings reset and I had to reboot into the BIOS to set the time and date; I also had to turn off Secure Boot.
While I was ordering I decided to get a new m.sata ssd drive, a Kingston 256G, for the Lenovo Ideapad I acquired.
Both repairs completed without problems.
