    Hi, I've seen a few M1330 disassembly posts and such; my m1330 was knocked over and the bottom base where the fan is cracked/broke and now the build won't close entirely.

    I see I can buy the bottom base part relatively cheap, but how difficult is it to just replace the bottom base? Do I have to take apart everything completely like motherboard, all the cards, etc?

    Thanks
