00:00:00,666 --> 00:00:04,600

Hello everyone, in this lesson, let's take a look at the laptop disassembly tutorial

2

00:00:05,133 --> 00:00:08,700

First of all, let's take a look at what we generally call the notebook shell

3

00:00:09,866 --> 00:00:15,000

We generally refer to the notebook shell as A shell, B shell, C shell and D shell

4

00:00:16,333 --> 00:00:18,533

They are in order from top to bottom

5

00:00:18,733 --> 00:00:21,133

Shell A is the top shell

6

00:00:22,066 --> 00:00:25,066

Shell B is the shell on this side of the screen

7

00:00:25,366 --> 00:00:28,166

The C shell is the shell on the side of the keyboard.

8

00:00:28,566 --> 00:00:30,400

D shell is the bottom shell

9

00:00:31,166 --> 00:00:35,166

Under normal circumstances, whether we disassemble the machine or buy the case,

10

00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,966

just say A case, B case, C case, D case.

11

00:00:39,066 --> 00:00:42,533

Next, let's take a look at the tools to be prepared for disassembly

12

00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,866

There are not many tools to prepare, only three

13

00:00:45,966 --> 00:00:50,700

A screwdriver set, a triangular blade and a suction cup

14

00:00:53,500 --> 00:00:54,900

Let's see one by one

15

00:00:55,100 --> 00:00:57,500

First, the screwdriver set

16

00:00:59,733 --> 00:01:04,066

It is recommended to use a screwdriver set with a thicker handle

17

00:01:04,700 --> 00:01:10,000

Screwdriver sets with thinner handles, such as millet screwdrivers, are not recommended

18

00:01:10,066 --> 00:01:16,200

Because its handle is relatively thin, some larger screws may not be removed

19

00:01:16,933 --> 00:01:21,366

Moreover, there are various types of screws on the notebook at present.

20

00:01:21,500 --> 00:01:24,566

Common Phillips screws and Torx screws

21

00:01:24,866 --> 00:01:29,200

So for novices, it is more cost-effective to prepare a screwdriver set

22

00:01:30,333 --> 00:01:31,766

Second, an opening pick

23

00:01:31,866 --> 00:01:34,466

It's for prying the buckle off

24

00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,333

There are a lot of clips on the computer

25

00:01:38,533 --> 00:01:42,333

These buckles need to be pried open with an opening pick

26

00:01:42,933 --> 00:01:47,366

Some old craftsmen prefer to use metal crowbars when disassembling the machine

27

00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:50,800

But for novices, metal crowbars are not recommended

28

00:01:51,500 --> 00:01:56,000

Because the strength of the metal crowbar is relatively strong, it is easy to pry the shell

29

00:01:56,933 --> 00:02:01,200

The third, suction cup, the suction cup is used to suck the shell

30

00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,266

Because many computers now use metal casings

31

00:02:05,333 --> 00:02:07,800

The metal casing is generally not easy to grasp

32

00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,466

We need to use a suction cup to suck it up

33

00:02:11,466 --> 00:02:15,533

After preparing these tools, we can proceed with the disassembly process

34

00:02:16,266 --> 00:02:20,000

When disassembling the machine, we don't start screwing it as soon as it comes up.

35

00:02:20,133 --> 00:02:21,933

First observe

36

00:02:22,300 --> 00:02:23,366

What are you observing?

37

00:02:23,533 --> 00:02:27,166

First observe whether the battery is built-in

38

00:02:27,966 --> 00:02:29,600

This is the first place to look

39

00:02:29,766 --> 00:02:34,200

The second is to observe whether the keyboard and the C shell are designed as one

40

00:02:36,500 --> 00:02:38,300

Let's look at the first point to observe

41

00:02:38,666 --> 00:02:41,966

The first one is to observe whether the battery is built-in

42

00:02:42,900 --> 00:02:46,333

There are two designs of common notebooks

43

00:02:46,466 --> 00:02:50,766

One is built-in battery, one is external battery

44

00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:56,400

Of course, there are also a small number of computers with both built-in batteries and external batteries,

45

00:02:56,466 --> 00:02:58,466

such as ThinkPad

46

00:02:59,566 --> 00:03:02,733

And now most of the laptop batteries are built-in

47

00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,200

Only a small number of old computers have external batteries

48

00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:10,233

If the battery is external, then we have to remove the battery before performing other operations

49

00:03:14,333 --> 00:03:17,766

We can observe that the D shells of the two computers in the lower right corner

50

00:03:18,333 --> 00:03:23,333

But the D shell of this computer is very flat, which means that the battery is built-in

51

00:03:23,566 --> 00:03:27,200

The battery on the right is obviously external.

52

00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,133

Its battery is here

53

00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:39,100

After observing the battery, we need to observe whether the keyboard is integrated with the C shell

54

00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,100

Most of the new computer keyboards are integrated with the C shell

55

00:03:44,333 --> 00:03:46,933

Let's take a look at this keyboard

56

00:03:48,766 --> 00:03:52,900

It can be seen that there is no gap between the keyboard and the surrounding C shell

57

00:03:53,433 --> 00:03:57,733

And this keyboard, you can clearly see that there is a gap between the keyboard and the C shell

58

00:03:59,133 --> 00:04:01,533

It is a one-piece design

59

00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,566

If there is a gap, it means it is not one piece

60

00:04:12,466 --> 00:04:17,800

After we observe the battery and keyboard, we will get a rough disassembly direction

61

00:04:19,133 --> 00:04:21,966

After observing these, we can disassemble the machine next.

62

00:04:22,533 --> 00:04:28,166

First of all, we need to remove all the screws that can be seen on the D shell.

63

00:04:28,966 --> 00:04:37,533

And all the covers on the D shell and all the screws under the covers must be removed.

64

00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,333

For example the picture on the right

65

00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,566

It can be seen that there is a cover in the middle of the D shell

66

00:04:44,933 --> 00:04:49,666

We're going to take this cover off at this step

67

00:04:49,666 --> 00:04:52,300

And remove all visible screws under the cover

68

00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:58,500

After removing all the screws of the D case, if the keyboard is integrated with the C case,

69

00:04:58,700 --> 00:05:03,333

then we can directly use the triangular pick to pry off the C and D cases

70

00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,766

Because at this time, there is only a buckle between the C shell and the D shell.

71

00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,833

If the keyboard and the C shell are not integrated, then the keyboard must be removed first

72

00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,933

After the keyboard is removed, there are usually several screws hidden under the keyboard.

73

00:05:20,466 --> 00:05:23,833

After removing these screws, pry open the C and D shells

74

00:05:25,100 --> 00:05:28,300

One thing to pay attention to here, when you pry open the C shell and the D shell,

75

00:05:28,700 --> 00:05:30,733

generally a few buckles will be broken more or less

76

00:05:32,533 --> 00:05:34,633

This is very normal, don't panic

77

00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,933

After prying off the C and D shells, we can separate the C and D shells

78

00:05:43,166 --> 00:05:46,366

Once separated, we can see the inside of the computer

79

00:05:46,533 --> 00:05:50,066

At this time, we can see the mainboard and various cables.

80

00:05:50,866 --> 00:05:57,566

At this time, if the computer battery is built-in, the first step is to disconnect the battery cable

81

00:05:58,100 --> 00:06:01,633

After disconnecting the battery cable, we remove the battery,

82

00:06:01,866 --> 00:06:05,133

the wireless network card and all the cables connected to the mainboard

83

00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:10,900

After removing these, remove the screws on the mainboard, and you can remove the mainboard

84

00:06:11,933 --> 00:06:16,000

The above is a more general notebook disassembly process

85

00:06:16,566 --> 00:06:21,766

Although it is more general, but follow this process to dismantle the computer can be dismantled

86

00:06:22,533 --> 00:06:26,166

When we disassemble the machine, it is not enough to just know the process,

87

00:06:26,433 --> 00:06:28,700

there are many things to pay attention to

88

00:06:31,566 --> 00:06:34,966

We must write down all the precautions here

89

00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,500

Because they are money lessons

90

00:06:39,700 --> 00:06:43,800

First of all, the first step is to disconnect the battery in the first step of disassembly,

91

00:06:43,900 --> 00:06:46,533

and connect the battery in the last step of installation.

92

00:06:47,900 --> 00:06:51,633

No matter what accessories we want to remove on the mainboard,

93

00:06:52,300 --> 00:06:55,733

the first step is always to disconnect the battery, and the last step is to connect the battery

94

00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:02,433

If the battery is not disconnected, it may cause a short circuit on the mainboard and cause damage

95

00:07:03,700 --> 00:07:06,200

Especially when changing screens

96

00:07:06,366 --> 00:07:09,400

Many people do not remove the battery when replacing the screen,

97

00:07:09,533 --> 00:07:12,333

which eventually leads to burning the CPU or graphics card

98

00:07:13,300 --> 00:07:18,466

The second is that some notebook back shell screws have an anti-lost design

99

00:07:18,866 --> 00:07:21,800

The screw with this anti-lost design cannot be removed

100

00:07:22,066 --> 00:07:27,133

When we heard a clicking sound during disassembly, it means that the screw has been unscrewed

101

00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,400

If the screw cannot be removed, do not continue to tighten it

102

00:07:30,933 --> 00:07:35,300

This kind of anti-lost design is generally seen on ThinkPad.

103

00:07:37,366 --> 00:07:42,633

The third is, when separating the C shell and the D shell, don't open it completely at once.

104

00:07:43,666 --> 00:07:48,100

Because there may be a cable connection between the C shell and the D shell

105

00:07:49,733 --> 00:07:54,933

If the C shell and D shell are opened at once, it may cause the breakage of the cable

106

00:07:55,600 --> 00:08:00,800

Some cables are relatively expensive, and some cables may be worth hundreds of dollars

107

00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:08,666

The fourth is that the screws must be placed in different areas, and the length of the screws must be remembered

108

00:08:09,066 --> 00:08:10,700

If you can't remember,

109

00:08:10,833 --> 00:08:15,066

you can put the screws in order and take a photo to prevent the wrong screws from being installed.

110

00:08:15,466 --> 00:08:18,700

If you install the wrong screws, if you are lucky, you may put a bag on the C shell,

111

00:08:19,033 --> 00:08:20,966

if you are unlucky, you may penetrate the mainboard

112

00:08:21,166 --> 00:08:24,366

If the mainboard is pierced, the mainboard is scrapped,

113

00:08:24,733 --> 00:08:29,133

and the mainboard needs to be completely replaced.

114

00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,966

The fifth is that when disassembling the radiator, it must be disassembled diagonally.

115

00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,500

Risk of crushing the core if you don't

116

00:08:40,533 --> 00:08:42,966

For example, the radiator on the right

117

00:08:43,300 --> 00:08:46,533

We must follow the logic of diagonal disassembly when disassembling

118

00:08:46,933 --> 00:08:50,666

If one side is disassembled, the core may be crushed

119

00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,366

Because there is a raised wafer on the CPU and graphics card of the computer

120

00:09:01,700 --> 00:09:05,000

For example, this is a CPU, below is the solder ball

121

00:09:07,533 --> 00:09:11,266

The radiator is so tightly attached to it

122

00:09:11,933 --> 00:09:14,533

If we lock the screw on one side first, or loosen it,

123

00:09:14,566 --> 00:09:21,166

the radiator will change from a flat state to a slanted state

124

00:09:22,366 --> 00:09:24,600

It only presses one side of the core

125

00:09:24,966 --> 00:09:27,866

At this time, it is possible to crush the core

126

00:09:28,100 --> 00:09:32,000

Especially when we are installing, we have to press this side down

127

00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:37,333

At this time, the point where the radiator contacts the core will form a fulcrum

128

00:09:37,566 --> 00:09:41,800

This piece is relatively strong and may crush the core

129

00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,866

And after the core is crushed, it's basically scrapped

130

00:09:48,366 --> 00:09:52,733

The sixth is that you must use a suitable batch when disassembling

131

00:09:53,133 --> 00:09:57,400

If an inappropriate bit is used, it may cause the screw to slip

132

00:09:57,966 --> 00:10:01,566

And some of the screws are difficult to remove after slipping.

133

00:10:02,733 --> 00:10:05,333

The seventh is also a more important point

134

00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,900

There may be stickers on the mainboard

135

00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,333

Be sure to paste it when installing the machine

136

00:10:12,566 --> 00:10:15,533

If it is not pasted properly, it may burn the mainboard

137

00:10:15,900 --> 00:10:19,166

Because these stickers are generally used for insulation

138

00:10:19,666 --> 00:10:25,400

Even if the shell is plastic, the inside of the shell may be conductive

139

00:10:25,966 --> 00:10:30,166

And if there is no protection from the sticker, it may cause a short circuit on the mainboard,

140

00:10:30,366 --> 00:10:32,566

thus burning the mainboard

141

00:10:33,666 --> 00:10:39,100

The last note is that you must be careful when plugging and unplugging the cables on the mainboard.

142

00:10:39,300 --> 00:10:41,800

Don't take the cable and pull it out directly

143

00:10:42,166 --> 00:10:44,933

If you pull it directly, it may damage the cable

144

00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:52,300

Ok, after understanding the process and precautions, we can actually disassemble a notebook and try it out

145

00:10:53,633 --> 00:10:57,866

Let's take a look at the disassembly and assembly of this Redmi computer

146

00:11:00,900 --> 00:11:04,500

First observe whether its keyboard and battery are built-in

147

00:11:08,933 --> 00:11:13,300

Observing the D case, it can be found that its battery is built-in

148

00:11:15,300 --> 00:11:18,700

Observing the keyboard, it can be seen that there is no gap between the keyboard and the C shell,

149

00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,966

and they are integrated

150

00:11:21,500 --> 00:11:23,700

Then we have the idea of disassembly

151

00:11:23,766 --> 00:11:28,800

Directly remove all the screws of the D shell, and then pry the C shell and the D shell

152

00:11:29,466 --> 00:11:32,500

Now all the screws have been removed by me

153

00:11:32,766 --> 00:11:35,166

If you can't remember the length of the screws,

154

00:11:35,266 --> 00:11:40,266

you can put them on the paper according to their positions like me, and then take a photo

155

00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,200

When installing the machine, the screws will not be installed wrongly.

156

00:11:45,100 --> 00:11:49,300

After all the screws are removed, we can pry the D shell open

157

00:11:50,133 --> 00:11:52,400

Because this is a metal case

158

00:11:52,466 --> 00:11:59,700

Therefore, it is not recommended to use an opening pick to pry directly, otherwise it is easy to leave scratches

159

00:12:00,100 --> 00:12:04,766

Use a suction cup to pick it up

160

00:12:12,500 --> 00:12:14,400

Now we have removed the D shell

161

00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:18,866

The first thing we're going to do next is disconnect the battery cable

162

00:12:23,933 --> 00:12:28,266

After disconnecting the battery, you can remove the battery and remove the mainboard

163

00:12:28,700 --> 00:12:31,900

There is nothing special about the disassembly process of this mainboard

164

00:12:32,133 --> 00:12:36,266

There are neither stickers nor something special to look out for

165

00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,400

Just screw it in

166

00:12:38,666 --> 00:12:41,400

I won't demonstrate this part anymore

167

00:12:42,900 --> 00:12:44,733

Let's look at a ThinkPad

168

00:12:45,300 --> 00:12:49,766

Still the same, first observe whether the keyboard and the C shell are integrated

169

00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,666

Careful observation shows that there is no gap between the keyboard and the C shell,

170

00:12:55,433 --> 00:12:58,266

indicating that they are integrated

171

00:12:58,866 --> 00:13:00,566

Let's observe the D shell

172

00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:07,500

It can be seen that the D shell is very flat, indicating that the battery is built-in

173

00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:12,266

Next, we will remove all the screws of the D shell, and then pry the C shell and the D shell

174

00:13:13,100 --> 00:13:16,366

We pick the right screwdriver

175

00:13:16,900 --> 00:13:19,700

ThinkPad screws are anti-lost design

176

00:13:20,300 --> 00:13:28,700

So when we hear the sound of clicking, it means that the screw has been loosened

177

00:13:32,533 --> 00:13:36,000

Let's continue to remove the other screws

178

00:13:39,166 --> 00:13:46,000

After all the screws are removed, you can open the C and D shells by hand.

179

00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,666

There is a buckle here that cannot be pried open, let's use an opening pick to pry it

180

00:13:55,966 --> 00:13:57,466

Ok now it's open

181

00:13:57,466 --> 00:13:58,966

Let's remove the D shell

182

00:13:59,766 --> 00:14:02,100

This is what's inside a ThinkPad machine

183

00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:08,466

The anti-lost design of the ThinkPad screw is because there is a washer under the screw

184

00:14:08,866 --> 00:14:11,166

This is not obvious, let's look at another

185

00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,100

This gasket is more obvious

186

00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:19,333

It is because of the existence of this washer that the screw is anti-lost and cannot be removed.

187

00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,600

Let's take a look inside the machine first

188

00:14:22,700 --> 00:14:25,766

You can see that there are many such stickers inside

189

00:14:26,133 --> 00:14:30,333

These stickers must be affixed when installing the machine.

190

00:14:31,066 --> 00:14:33,366

Then we will remove the battery

191

00:14:34,466 --> 00:14:38,566

After removing the battery, we can disassemble the remaining parts at will

192

00:14:39,366 --> 00:14:43,766

The internal disassembly of ThinkPad is not difficult, basically it is screwing

193

00:14:43,900 --> 00:14:45,966

No more demos here

194

00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:52,166

At this point, the notebook disassembly tutorial is over
