    I have an ACER ASPIRE 6920 that needs a new power jack. Can anyone tell me where I can get instructions on how to replace it? Thanks in advance for any help.

    wish I could do it for you.... I LOVE work on the 6920 models.
    Its really easy if you have taken the palm-rest off before, but if not you might just get it done professionally.

    In the interest of me being really cheap and I have always re-soldered the connections to my own power jack when it goes out. :D


    but really all you have to do is pop the palm-rest and bottom cover off and thread the old wires out and the new ones back through.

    *edit* I don't know where to find any step-by-step directions, but ill keep an eye out.
