    Hi. I have a problem. I picked up my laptop while the subwoofer was connected, lifted subwoofer up and broke the " hole " to which you connect the subwoofer (sorry, dont know exact expression, english is my second best known language). Subwoofer itself works fine if i move the jack in " hole ", so its damage inside notebook, that is why i need to dismantle it and try to fix it. I dont want to use RMA, because last time I did, I had to wait o whole month! for return. So, is here someone, who could help me to dismantle laptop? Of crouse, if I lose warranty by doing this, I will not do it. Thanks.

    Hey Gerchan, did you fix your problem? I got the same problem.
    I got a small coffee table where I put my laptop and the subwoofer fell over the edge... now the socket or hole where you plug in the subwoofer has a tiny crack. The subwoofer still works if I twist and turn but the rest of the sound doesn't work anymore... :(

    Need help! I'm not that great with laptops..
