Tinkering HP 510 - The oldie lapie

Not much to talk about. This is my HP 510 notebook, 5 years serves in use and trouble free.
Recently, system appears to be near overheating condition.
More heat generated by system, fan is howling loud along operation and at the surface my hands also feels more than ordinary warm.
All been concluded.
System should in cleaning maintenance state immediately.

Taking closer look of how this notebook was assembled, is not very ruged and also fragile in some joints.
Being out of warranty, I thought it is not even a big deal at all.
Tinkering electronics is fun anyway :)

Here it is, after successfully disassemble

It does not intent to be step by step DIY reassembly, so I don't bother taking many picture.
Is it working again after self-servicing?


Altought  some lid got broken but it runs normal and quiter.
This old lappie still rocks!

Hmmm, maybe some little upgrade will give it more fresh air to breath
More memory, processor and bios, will come later to research.
