Hi i have got a hp omnibookxe4500 laptop ad the power socket on the computer is loose and is getting very hot. I think it just needs a new jack the laptop charges ok once you get the plug in the right position.
I am confident at soldering components onto a circuit board i have just got a couple of questions
1. will i destroy any components soldering the new jack onto the circuit board
2. is it just a case of buying the right size connector and unsoldering the old 1 and soldering the new 1 on or am i missing something ?
3 has anyone had any experience of stripping down this type of laptop is it easy
4 will I have to load any software or reboot the system ?
grateful of any advice good or bad lol
