information will apply to all laptops but in some cases it may be product specific, as a technician you do not always get to work on all makes and models. The company I worked for over the last ten years was an IBM and Dell shop as far as laptops were concerned and the IBM ThinkPad was the computer of choice due to the warranty that IBM has for larger business.

So what is your laptop problem?

  • The battery will not last as long as it used to?
  • Does the keyboard have dead keys?
  • Your hard drive to small?
  • Want to increase the memory?
  • What about the processor?
  • Can you upgrade the cpu?
  • Can a laptop be overclocked?
  • Just how would you go about opening a laptop anyway?
