Hi, I this message is in response to a video you put out about 3 years ago (How to replace laptop connector on motherboard). I have resent this message through a current video to ensure the chances you see it. "I have a Dell Inspiron 7706 2n1 laptop, the "keyboard FPC/FFC connector (30 pins) on the "mother board" was damage. Although a difficult job, I have managed to dissembling/reassembling parts in a few dell PCs, but to try to solder an FPC/FFC connector is something else! So, as you rightly suggesting I will not even think about, let alone try to replace the connector myself. So, if you can save me some money by not having to buy a motherboard, I would deeply appreciate it. By the way, as shown in your video, in my Dell 7706 the black side of the keyboard ribbon goes in facing down. I think the connecter in my laptop is called "Clamshell" (Flip Lock) Connection, not Top or Bottom Contact. I don't know if the pitch is 0.3, 0.5 or 1.0mm? When I find out which is the right one to buy, I will order the replacement via Ebay. Please get back to me ASAP regarding the terms and arrangements. I have a PayPal account and I am located in NYC, NY. If you no longer do this kind of work, maybe you or someone seeing this comment can direct me to someone who does." Thank You Kindly

Hi, my gateway has a swollen battery, still working. But if I disconnected the battery, it can't boot up, the green light turned on then off, like your video shows. I don't want to buy a new battery, what can I do to make the laptop work without the battery?😅

would it work without connecting the battery?

I have same problem, but the screen is death. I already check that port, I connect and disconnect but nothing happens

why are all the parts so small, its like its a cell phone. i opened mine up to see if I could update the ram and it looks like 2 microcards like a phone would have. first thing I did was unplug battery. I did nothing other than removing gold plate and put it back on, closed it up. WONT turn on. but it gets warm so must be getting power. I was grounded but did I fry it or something? battery def tight in there. looks like another commentor mrgivestarzz had same issue but I dont get green power light, but back gets warm over where the gold plate was,

Hi I have the same but disconnecting the battery then trying to power on the laptop from the power supply doesn't work it's doing the same thing.
