This was one heck of a difficult feat, thank you for documenting the process. It took me about one hour to disassemble and two hours to re-assemble.

Excellent guide - many thanks for writing this. It took me about 3 hours in total as well but it’s all done now. Worst part was the 50 tiny screws holding the keyboard in place!

Hey, I did this and have some serious Wi-Fi connection issues now…Ethernet and Wi-Fi are both listed as non-operational although sometimes a network will appear in my available networks to connect to. Any idea what might have gone wrong? I took out the LAN card and reinserted it, no dice.

D Walford - Contestar

You got the cables connected to the wrong little circle post on the wifi card. Swap them and it should work! happened to me drove me mad until I tried it.

derek ram -

I do have issues that seem to be the CMOS Battery.

I couldn't see that in your disassembly instructions.

I am looking everywhere for this little issue and I can not find instructions for the CMOS replacement.

Could you enlight a little where to get this information?
