    Greets.
    I have a W3N (same as V for this matter) and my hdd cover is 1mm up on the left side (where there is the thumb hole). On the left side it is fine.
    Now my laptop is a little elevated on the center, and the left and right feet don't seat at the table... :(
    I'm asking help so that I can solve this. thanks in advance

    It doesn't sound like the cover is seated correctly... I've heard of other people doing this when they remove the cover and try to put it back on. Take it off and take a look at all of the little tabs... ... you're just not getting them all down. It's almost impossible to screw up seating the drive itself, so I wouldn't think that'd be in the way.

    Proportable, thanks :)
    Can you please give me a hand on other subject:
    I need to change a ram module, the one that is under the keyboard.
    The keyboard has that small taps on the top, that keep it secure. If I press those taps, the keyboard jumps out of them, or do I need to put away the taps and push the keyboard myself?
    Whats the correct procedure? I'm a little bit worried because I don't want to screw my laptop.
    thanks

    Go from left to right or right to left... whatever... it should pop up... if it doesn't pull *lightly* on the esc key after you pop that first tab...... the thinner the screwdriver you use, the better.....

    You worded this a little weird, so if I answered the wrong question, just like me know. You're not going to screw up the keyboard.
