Do I need to put thermal paste when heat sink removed. Dell service center didn’t put thermal paste when they remove heatsink ?
You’d better apply new thermal grease, because the old thermal grease will reduce heat dissipation performance.
I can’t open the 3 screws at display side, 2 screws at corners loosen but not coming out and the screw at the center loosen a bit and again goes tight and so on please help me I want to upgrade ram.
Please remove 11 screws from the bottom case. Insert some plastic picks between the bottom case and the laptop body. Slide the plastic pick to release the snaps on the bottom case from the laptop body.
Good afternoon!
