Introduction

Keep in mind that the computer’s battery needs to be removed and the power adapter must be disconnected before you begin. We’ll show you how to do that in this guide as well.

Usually, a computer’s keyboard needs to be replaced when you type in the keyboard but nothing gets displayed in the screen. However, check out our troubleshooting page to see if your problem falls into a different category.

Please follow instructions as they appear.
