Hello gtards i recently got into collage and i got me a nice thinkpad T420 and ill let the story speak for its-selfI ordered this T420 off amazon since with my previous ebay experience with my T400 having a USB port be destroyed beyond repair i thought this would be a no brainer well... i got a T430 instead no biggie keyboard is kinda shitty but oh this is where the problems begin>be me laying in bed using the thinkpad >keyboard pops out >oh no biggie let me take a look maybe i hit a switch and that pops the keyboard out >lookup a guide on how the keyboard works on ifixit >it screws in >OH GOD OHH NOOO>Open up the bottombehold autists Behold G, The worst most depressing repair job i have ever seen in my 18 years on this moldy blue rock(the screws should look the same how the fuck do you destroy the head to be completely cut off)
>>106914139that's fine anon, that's a centering pin not a screw that had its head broken off. holy shit
>>106914185i fixit guide says thats a screw i also got a baggie of screws in that little cubby as wellfunny thing is they are way too long to fit
>>106914198Anon, that's the centering pin and screw for the mpcie slotThey are reusing images for something else
Dude that stud is polished and shaped with factory precision. There's no such thing as stripping a screw so bad that it becomes perfectly flat and polished.
>>106914446You are like baby
>>106914139Looks like you're just missing (at least one of) the keyboard screws
reference the HMM the next time
