    Oh dear, be careful. Make sure you touch the copper pipe on a radiator to earth yourself before touching anything inside.

    There are so many screws in the bottom of a laptop and you only need to remove certain ones to remove the cover, if you remove them all then all the bits in side will fall out when you lift the cover off. Ideally you want to remove the cover with the motherboard and other bits still attached to it.

    Good luck...

    I just took mine back to the store waving my warranty about ;)
    and says me who done a HND in computing hardware :rotfl:

    Thankyou all, and to ExTesco too, hadn't realised I'd quoted so many peeps, and multi quotes stop, I think, at maximum of 3! :)

    Keyboard replaced no problem :) Apart from hunting missing screws.... found them stuck to the outer edge, must be magentised!

    Old keyboard is now a bit warped with a few keys broken off, but I'm happy. Only thing that doesn't seem to be working, is the left touch "mouse" (totally unsure of quite what I might have done to that!) but think I'll get by without it, and has saved me from needing to fork out for a new laptop :)

    sent a lad to go get me some glaze for a wall i spayed with multi colour chip paint

    he came back and asked me "what size is the window"

    muppet

    found a few guys trying to paint over silicone mastic then look puzzled when it doesn't stay where they put it

    best of all is watching someone not used to acrylic paint scratching head when it breaks lol
    Back to square one, no apg, no comment.

    Perhaps a piece of the old keyboard has broke off and slipped down under the touchpad/mouse buttons.

    Hi guys

    Sorry I hope you don't mind, I just HAD to come on here for a rant!:mad::mad::mad: My Mum went into Poundstretcher the other day and got overcharged on something (admittedly it was only pence) and also bought crisps that were out of date and disgusting. Bearing in mind she's been back and forth from the hospital seeing me and had a ton of appointments herself this week, she didn't exactly have her brain in gear when she paid. She had a cup of tea leaking in one hand, it was pouring with rain and she had an hour's walk back to another hospital for her appointment.

    Well Mum said to just let it go but me being me thought I'd phone Poundstretcher and explain and they have made me feel like such a criminal!! No appology, absolute rude, nasty people....arghhhh I'm so bloomin angry!! :mad: They suggested that because she'd paid by cash she'd have to go back to the store for a refund....20 miles from us and there was nothing else they could do!! No appology for out of date stock, just 'oh I'll let the manager know' !! They eventually put me through to treasury?! and after much deliberation the guy decided he could send me a £5 voucher. I explained that I had been in hospital and that they were making me feel like I was in the wrong but still no appology. I can't understand the purpose of a customer service team that do not provide service to customers!!!:eek: :mad:
