    Anyone here has any guides or instructions on how I can tighten the hinges on my M9750 they've become increasingly loose recently and whilst the display still holds up fine theres a noticeable movement in it when you move the machine whilst it's on or when you touch it. Presuming it's the same as the M17 so maybe if someones done it on that system then they could provide some pointers.

    Thanks for any tips/help in advance :)

    Found out what it was, wasnt the hinges it was the two screws holding the hinges onto the display that had worked there way loose, tightening them has fixed the wobbly problem
