W T F !!!! the "ctrl" key fell out while i am typing !!!!

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I suggest.. DUN USE SUPERGLUE ON ANY COMPUTER PARTS !!!.. lol.. my guess is it cracked because you didnt remove the ram or you forced it or its juz plain poor quality of parts.. either way.. i wont suggest you superglue it.. mayb cello tape it but definetly no GLUE !!.. because glue might melt if its hot.. scared if it realy melts then u in big trouble..


can can.. but give me a few days.. dun wan u all to c the noob video.. ill make a proper video or a picture guide..

oh ya.. regarding ssd.. google is your best friend most of the time.. make sure the ssd you are buying works with the laptop..

like my corsair force 3 120gb sata iii, it didnt like the ASUS N53SN or the A43SV that i have.. keep on blue screen randomly (confirm not other hardware problem because works properly with normal HDD)..

juz sharing my experience..

it will be included inside.. but have to give me a few days.. need take care of my baby.. .. when he sleep oni i got time to do.. cos iwhole process of dismantling and reassembly will take time and i have to record it down.. so be patient..

ya it will melt, but it wont be as bad as superglue rite? at least with cello, you can still wipe off the sticker part with a motherboard cleaner spray.. i doubt you can clean superglue off you motherboard...

To assemble it back.. juz read the post backwards and you should be fine.. GOOD LUCK !!




EXTRA :::
some times when you are removing the cable in pic 10.. this cable might come loose also. juz check it before you assemble the top case or you wont be able to power on the machine.

if you are installing 1 SSD and 1 HDD like me, remember to set the option in bios like this

If anything goes wrong.. dun flame me.. ill try to help, but if its major i guess ASUS service centre is the only option.

I summarize everything into here.. easier to see and read ..

nope, unless u ownself tell them la


dun need

if u mean the small yellow sticker that says "warranty void" then ya.. if you remove that sticker warranty will void. but that sticker is only on the heatsink so removing te casing is fine.


msata is behind the motherboard. i wouldnt suggest removing the motherboard to install msata.. as if you remove the motherboard screws and assemble them back wrongly, you might short circuit you laptop. and you would have to remove the LCD, lcd cables, wifi cables, speaker cables and a few more cables here n there. too complicated to be done without proper skills and equipment. i highly against the public to remove the motherboard by themself.
so i wont be teaching everyone how to do that. call me selfish or whatnot, but its for your own good. i suggest if msata is what you want, go to the service centre to get it done. sry i cant help you on this.



PS: anybody looking for a mobile laptop? Asus U36JC..
