    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Where to find Replacement battery

    Didn't fix the issue. Awaiting response from a PCS technician on how to check the connections etc and will update when I try that out :)

    Thank you! I have sent a ticket as tech support lets hope they can point me in the right direction. Do you know if cleaning the touchpad with Isopropyl alcohol would damage it? Or is it safe to do so? Might give that a go while I wait for a reply.

    It's an N850HK1, I have the manual as a technician sent me it from my last ticket about the keyboard. I believe the issue may have arisen from the fact that when i was using the laptop, it was always plugged in the wall with the charger on so that the battery has swelled up and maybe pushed some...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Optimus VIII, keyboard and trackpad problem

    Hi, I've had this issue for a while(check my last thread) and finally came around to try and fix it. I fixed my keyboard issue by reseating the keyboard connector but I'm not sure how to fix the trackpad issue. The trackpad seems to only work on some parts of the trackpad and in some areas I...

    Yeah but right now it just seems like a connectivity issue with the keyboard at least so I can rule out having to pay parts for that, I'll tighten up screws and see what happens. as for trackpad, that might need a new part

    Okay did the custom install, it didn't fix the issue. What i have realised is that when i press on the top right of the trackpad, the letters work again so I'm thinking it's a connectivity issue. This means that there will be no repair costs in installing new parts right? And I won't be charged...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Optimus VIII, keyboard and trackpad problem

    When i mentioned before I did a reinstall but it wasn't from a USB boot, it was just running the media tool/creating a virtual boot drive and then installed windows and deleted the old one. But what I'm also thinking is I've put the battery in now and before it wasn't in so maybe something to do...

    What key is it to go to boot menu? Turned laptop off and on and mashed f1 f2 esc f8 and f12 and none of them worked? Maybe because I'm doing it via external keyboard it isnt connected in time? I tried via laptop too but maybe because some keys aren't working it won't let me?
