    Hi schreto, can you post a pic of what the cmos battery looks like in the k70IC?

    Edit: here are two pics of k70 series mobos that I found on ebay. It looks pretty standard, just press the metal tab on the side with a flathead screwdriver and it will release the battery.

    hi allurgroceries,

    from the cmos battery or from motherboard where we have to replace it??? think the replacement is the problem as we do not know how to plug the new one ( ImageShack® - Online Photo and Video Hosting. we cannot remove the old connector from the board.

    yes, thats correct. the connector is under the "bridge" named 1207 in the second pic (left side down). and we do not know how to dissamble this "plastic bridge" to unplug the connector.

    You may have to remove the mainboard from the chassis if it is obstructed.

    If you don't want to do that, as long as you are sure you have the right battery, you can cut the wires on the old one, cut off the connector on the new one, and splice the wires together.

    I am not so sure. Unfortunately no guide has been posted for the K70IC. You need to remove the power cables, the display cable (which looks like it is taped down), the wifi cables, and any other accessory cables and the optical drive and hard drive(s). Then you must find all of the chassis screws and remember their positions because some will be different sizes. You can make a diagram on a sheet of paper and then tape the screws to their positions on the paper. You shouldn't have to remove the heatsinks but it looks like you may need to remove the fan to get to at least one screw. You may also need to remove the wireless card and RAM to get at other screws. There may be daughterboards which connect to the larger mainboard which have to come out first and may need to be removed at an angle.

    I would skip the hassle and splice the wires. It would take 10 minutes tops even if you are inexperienced.

    In that case, look over some of the other disassembly guides posted to get a general idea of the process. If you have not disassembled a laptop before I would suggest that you don't do this alone, find someone with experience to help or bring it to a shop. It is not worth damaging something (like a fragile connector) over a CMOS battery.

    Does anyone have a disassembly guide for the G2S? I've seen some pics of the chassis already opened and the board exposed and I was told its roughly similar to the G1S, however I really don't want to screw anything up.

    Ok I'm having trouble here. I search google and found this site. I found the dissemble manual. The only problem is the step to and fix the power button on the N50V series. Any help!. I was trying to clean out the fan and then next thing i know I'm having another issue. The power button wont come on. When I press the power button i dont get the firm push i use to get and I think something is wrong with and I dont know how to get inside it to see. I followed the dissemble guide to the T and I'm stuck. I took the keyboard out and I'm so close to the power button but dont know where to go from there plz help!!

    The power button is likely on a daughter board that will require you to remove the entire palmrest.

    Do I put the thermal paste on CPUFan/Heatsink 3 squares. One of the orange squares have an aluminum foil on it. Do I scrape that off or just put thermal paste around it?
    Also could somebody circle what part of the thermal past I should paste it at please would be a great help.
