    For months, I've noticed a rattling sound in my laptop when I move it, as if some little piece is moving around inside. Tonight I did some exploratory surgery, trying to find it. I found nothing, and when I got everything re-assembled, I noticed that the right hand side of the top cover (around the keyboard), toward the LCD, isn't snapping together. It sits flat but lifts up if my finger brushes by it. There don't appear to be any broken clips or tabs. Does anyone know how I might go about getting this to fasten securely?

    Also, have you heard a similar rattling sound (when the unit is powered off) in similar laptops?

    Thanks
