    I've not been able to find the search box for checking if anyone else has had this same problem, so here goes...

    I bought this laptop about a year and a half ago. warranty void. speakers f'ed up and are now relaying the sound of a click usually at some pace related to one of the fans.

    i finally got replacement speakers, and i thought replacing them would be pretty easy to figure out. however, about 30 screws later i've realized my error of assumption and already feel like a idiot for not having asked in a forum first.

    I need schematics on disassembling the3 lap top to the point of speaker access. or just a simple help file. although, i'm sure it's not quite that simple. i thought the speakers, when purchased, would come with a mini-installation guide or something, but i guess i was aiming a little high with my expectations.

    if anyone could help, that would be great. i'm already beginning to think i'm going to have to find a new laptop because of this mess of FUBAR i've created. thanks for any help in advance.

    sincerely,
    fear and loathing on my kitchen table.
