    Hello everyone.
    I have an MSI p75 creator 17" and It's not responding to the lid closing.
    It is not the power config on windows, I already try it. I even tried on the bios screen and when I close the lid, the screen is still on.
    A few weeks ago I changed the screen, so I thought I have lost the little Magnet, so I reopened, and the Magnet is still there.
    I'm attaching a photo of that, Is that the magnet ?
    I also tried passing a magnet next to the power button, but it's doing nothing.
    What it can be? Can the magnetic hall sensor be broken?
    Is it located on the power button board? I'm attaching a photo of the board, If I'm not wrong is the little sensor in the upper left corner, but I'm not sure. Can I just replace that?

    Thank you
