Thanks for the video! I've just pulled out my old PB laptop and the only one I have so upgrading it now. The hinge is broke on mine so looking to see how I can fix this and also wondering about the CPU if you could help. What CPUs would be compatible with this laptop?

Just followed your video. Wasn't as difficult as it looks. Ended up with 3 screws left over. But everything is done and working. Fan and heatsink was blocked by dust. I cleaned it and applied new thermal paste to cpu and gpu. Temperatures remain low now. And this old laptop is actually usable again. I've got an ssd and more ram on the way. Thank you for the great video

thanks for helping

Thank you, I've done it today and it took me about 30-40 min. It's a huge difference, an almost 10 years old laptop seems like new. Before I just turned it on and open a browser and the CPU was at 90 degrees, now whatever I do it doesn't go past 65 degrees and it's very quiet.

What ATI driver did you install/use and do you have a link?

In the Lenovo ideacentre aio 700-24ish monoblock, I replaced the 1000Gb HDD with a 512Gb SSD of the Chinese brand X ray. After that, the processor is constantly loaded by at least 50%, even in idle time. The cooling fan is running at full power, very noisy. WIN 10 Pro operating system, newly installed. In the task Manager, two processes "System" and "System Interrupts" actively use the processor. Please tell me, what could be the problem?

ram is a normal laptop

Does SSD help with speed of the laptop mine is very slow with the hdd ?

Thanks for the video! Really useful!

Thank you for the video, it was helpful. I have the AIO 700 27ISH. When I look at the system information, I can see a C drive (local fixed disk) and D drive (removable disk). Is the disk that you show in the video refer to the D drive in my case or is that the C drive? If that is the C drive, where is the D drive located? Any inputs is appreciated. Thank you.

The audio speaker cable will not come out. I pull very hard and it still wont budge. Is there a certain way to do it? Is there a push mechanism or a latch or something? You did it so easily in the video, i'm very confused.

cleaned my 10 year old acer, went from 10fps in minecraft with shaders to 20fps and from 95-100°c to max 63°c

This really makes a massive difference

Hi. Why does the other digitizer have a green color on its screen? What's that green color substance for (assuming it's not a protective film)? Thank you. God bless.

I'm going to try this out tonight. Mine is nearly 9 years old. I always used a laptop cooler with extra fans to raise it from the table, which probably helped to extend its lifetime, but after all this time the laptop is intensely heating up regardless. I'm not a computer wizard, so I'm afraid to do something wrong. But I'll follow your steps and I'll let everyone know whether a computer dummy like me can pull it off and whether it helped or not.

I just had 1g more to get a much better laptop lol

So how to Make a reset?

After reassembling only half of my keys on my keyboard are working. Every second or third key doesn't work and so it doesn't print the half word by writing. Do you know what the error may be?

Hi, just a follow up...I finally found and bought a cheap i7-4712mq and swapped it with the origin i5-4200m...successfully :) Also repasted three times since the first time I saw your video so thank you very much for your guide!

Very good job, I attack tomorrow morning, I had already changed the keyboard but it was easier. Thank you !

Thanks, this video helped me fixing my Acer. Now it runs cool and quiet again.

Thank you very much for this guide! Worked perfectly like this.

i have original 2s digitizer factory one if anyone need

I never thought I'd do this myself, but here I am- with a clean laptop, done all by myself with the help of your clip. Thanks!

Im still quite scared to open up my lsptop and clean the fan as well, The area of keyboard nearest to the fan wont respond Fan sounds like a 747 engine Cpu and gpu is WAY too hot Battery and charging probloms Hard drive failed multiple times I dont think i want to open my laptop and probably damage it further but ill probably do it anyways.

Thank you so much u are the beat u helped me so muchhhhhhhhhhj

Why no vacuum cleaner or airduster. Only brushing? That is not very propely dust removing. Nice made video, but still downvote.

It did the job! Thx for that!

I have a same laptop of yours, if you dont mind whats the maximum ram in ddr3 mobo?

What is the lequid thing that you applied ?

thx for video <3

Was only changing HDDs and SSDs. I just took the next step thanks to this video ! Much appreciated bro ! Also took care of that fan screw, in the end I had no extras :)))

I have the 27 inch UHD version of this pc but it looks identical. Are all the steps the same? Hoping to install an SSD and upgrade ram over the weekend. Thanks a lot!

Really helpfull video, 9 year old laptop that I dared fixing myself because of your concise instructions. Thanks very much!

Thank you very much 👌 I'm such greatfull ♥️♥️

Thanks mate! Used your vid for my old 771g. Silent as new. Will replace the hdd with a ssd tomorrow. Guess it will be better than ever

I don't have these platisc tools 😓 Anyway, I have the V3 772G - 7872 16GB RAM with nvidia 750M. Does anyone know if it worth to upgrade it? Besides more 16GB of ram and a SSD drive, is there anything else I can upgrade it? Maybe the video card or the processor? Thanks for the video. I hope someone could help me with my questions.

Hello this is very helpful steps video, please do tell if i can do this procedure without unplugging the wifi card, is it necessary ?..

Thank you so much. I feel like I have brought my laptop back from the dead. Cpu temp used to be around 60s-70s just by playing a movie and gpu also in the 60s area. The fan was extremely loud. After cleaning the fan and changing the thermal paste I have droped the cpu temp at the 40s area and the gpu also down to 36-37celsius. Your guide was extremely helpful !!!

Hello. Is it simple to add RAM too ? Do you think I should buy brackets to maintain SSD in the old HDD's caddy ?

Wait I don't have the 12.1 connector. What is it for?

Thanks for the teardown, saved me having to open a broken hinged laptop to prove there is a replaceable CPU before I do any work on it :)

i made everything like u and now my laptop is staying dark ... any tips ?

Thanks a lot for the video !!

guys what are the things around CPU that they have square grey/blue things on them? I peeled mines. Are they thermal pad?

After a year of random BSODs and shut downs when my kids go to use it for games and swapping bad ram, I think this might be the issue, needs new thermal paste and thorough clean! Cross fingers will report back. I ran several GPU benchmarks and saw the gpu temp rise rapidly but works fine on normal use, just anything graphic intensive just shuts down.

Thank you! This video helped me a lot!

Thanks bro

came in here to thank you, my computer looks new again
