Introduction
This specific repair does not require any previous knowledge about computers and can be completed by a beginner using only a single Phillips #1 screwdriver and a small, plastic, prying tool.
When performing this repair, ensure you are in a static free environment so as not to provide an electrical shock to the computer and possibly further damage the device. It is also recommended to keep track of removed parts in a separate enclosed container so to not lose any necessary components needed to put the computer back together.
