Despite the few missing “unscrew” steps, it REALLY helped me. It took quite a bit longer than 20 min as I did not want to wreck something, but overall I could not have changed my battery without this guide. THANK YOU!

Thank you for your help, I now know how to change the battery, I tried disconnecting and reconnecting it see if I would get any power at all but zip, I will look on Ebay to try and buy a battery for it but I hope it’s that as it was working fine then said battery had no charge when I always made sure it never ran out so not sure what the problem was, at first I thought it was the chord but wasn’t that as I changed it.

Dont forget to put the three screws back in the frame prior to putting the optical drive back in and dont forget to put the battery screws back in, other than that a great guide.
