I've taken apart a few laptops now and the worst part is when I want to
swear at the thing because there's some secret latch or attachment I
can't find that is stubbornly holding things together. Sometimes you can
find disassembly info online but not always.
I've promised myself I won't open up a laptop that is still worth
something though. I don't trust my luck that much.

When I was visiting a friend in Boise, their HP Pavilion was doing the same
thing. I took it apart and soldered the connector back in place. The worst
part was the time it took to take the laptop apart, but if you have the
patience to do this and remember where all the screws go, give or take one
or two hehe, then the soldering is not bad at all.
