Well, I'm impressed...

Recall that old laptop I posted something about earlier. Bad HD, broken mouse, bad power connection. Well, I didn't want to just let the thing rot away, so I decided to rip it apart and try to fix the power...

Fully disassembled.

Almost back together. I just set the LCD in to test it wasn't totally dead

It doesn't have an HD, so obviously it's not going to boot or anything. All I wanted was a sucessful POST. I did leave the trackpad board out seeing as the mouse wasn't working at all. I'm just suprised I got it working again. The thing has about 20 different connections inside for various things.
