    I have noticed that express slot of my laptop is not lock and always slip off when laptop is leaned. :mad: Are there anyway to fix it myself? I'm on working and don't want to send it to fix.

    Thank you, Moo. However, I have pushed it in and out, internal spring is work, but it can not lock the cover. I think it's broke.

    you have the worst company for a laptop...

    i bet you 5 bucks you even had a loose screen.. right?
    (srry for being negative but every toshiba i have ever used except for protege laptops from toshiba have been made with minimal concern to quality!)
