What problem are you trying to fix?

[longshadows]

Can you not go and live in America then dylan?

I am sure they would love you

[WyeDyed]

There are millions of Spanish speakers in America but I don't think that would help here ;0)

Dylan you sound impatient and annoyed.

Instructions usually comes in several languages including English. Perhaps the English interpretation is there also but you are too angry to see it? Have you tried looking online for the manual, or their website?

I thought Fujitsu was a Japanese company, so why blame this country.

[WyeDyed]

I could be wrong Canary but I think they're German now.

Hi WyeDyed,
I'm trying to peplace dc socket (the socket mains lead goes into on back of laptop). It seems I have to strip laptop right down, including taking off keyboard etc., to replace. Three choices. 1) computer repair shop at £100 +, the guy is very fair and wont *** me, says he needs about 3 -4 hours to work on it which equates to £30 per hr, says himself not worth the expense. 2) repair myself if I can, part costs £5-00 on ebay, or 3) buy a new laptop at £250 - £300 refurbished from pc world.
Thanks mate for enquiring,
Bob

I see your dilemma. I have taken apart a few laptops and it can be a nightmare.
Your repair chap is right, it's a two to three hour job to replace a £5.00 part.
One piece of advice, use a table with plenty of space, lay the screws out in a manner that you can see where they came from when it comes to reassembly.
There can be anything from 3 to 8 different size screws.
I have recently sold my Esprimo V1550 but never had to strip it down so I cannot offer specific advice, sorry.
Good Luck.
