    Hi there.

    It's hard to tell if it can be helped - what does it mean that the clip "has come out"? These are metal clips - is it broken, or has it literally come out (as in slipped out of its mountings)?

    There is also a second thing although not exactly related - Aspire 3515 is a single core Celeron-based notebook which at this point is close to unusable. It's incapable of doing most things she might want to do - it will lag as hell in browser, it won't be able to play a HD video etc. So you might want to re-consider this.
