    So the hinge that keeps the screen put comes out of place.
    This is because there is a little plastic that comes off.
    the hinge is right next to the battery; the one to the left where the graphix boost button is. Even if i reattach it it still comes off really easily when i close the screen because it just pops out exposing the wiring that goes to the lcd.
    Does anyone have a solution for this?

    I can't believe the screen is held in place by a flimsy plastic.

    Any help is much appreciated.

    Make sure the screen is all the way down when you push it back in. The little tab that holds the plastic in place is probably broken from some careless force applied in the wrong spot.

    so figured out that if i hold the place where the graphix boost button is the plastic piece does not pop off.
    Hmmm...i thought i could fix it myself; so should i send it in for repair?

    actually that wont be necessary.
    I found out the problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    There is a missing screw in the bottom side by where the battery is.
    theres is supposed to be two but i only see one.

    Im gonna try to find a screw that fits.
    Thanks for your reply.

    Now i dont have to send it in for repair woot woot!
