- Hi!
No music. No talking. Just work.
If you are taking your laptop apart be careful and wear an anti-static wrist band or use other anti-static device. If you need to change a LCD usually you don't have to take screen out of a laptop. You can leave it on a laptop and watch the last part of the video where I am taking LCD apart. If you need to change a keyboard, you don't have to take all bottom screws out. There are usually some marks, like a keyboard picture, on a case bottom. If you need to put a laptop back to work be aware of screws. They are different and you better remember or mark them somehow to insure that you will put them back in to a right place.
Some laptops I take apart first time, so don't be serious on my time and performance.
If something got broken - ooops, it's your fault.
Believe me, some parts in your laptop are already broken, you just don't see that.
So, just watch this video and fix your laptop.
Have fun and good luck!!

Thanks. last year my hard drive stopped working so I needed to replace it (that was my first time removing things from my pc). It was a completely disaster, I could not do it. Today (1 year later) I tried again and I did it, but I messed up some wires. I think Dell did a disaster structure for this computer.
Now I have a Toshiba Satellite and a I love it because is so Easy take apart the hard drive.
i have this laptop about 16 years! thanks !
regazz, you are very skilled. Thanks for making a video that is not full of bullcrap. I am fixing a friends laptop and this disassembly is exactly what I needed to do a good job.
One thing I do to keep track of where the screws belong is I draw little squares on a blank sheet of paper. As I take the screws out I label the square based on screw origin and place the screws in the squares. This way when I put things back together I can put all the screws back where they came from.
Thanks for the video.
I broke a little piece of plastic becuase I wasn't paying attention to one of the screws that were left inside.
But operation has completed successfully.
Hi,
I have 2 of these laptops. They're great, except for the very cheap plastic that breaks easily. Replacing/Upgrading the HDD is a nightmare (if you decide to do so). 🙄😶
The maximum CPU that you can put into this laptop is an Intel T9300. I'm currently running a T8300 in one machine & a T7500 in another. 😎
Maximum RAM is 2x 2 GB DDR2 800 MHz. 4 GB in total ergo.
Glad to know this is as big a pain for someone else as it is for me! Thank you for the video, it was very helpful.
Thank you for this nice "manual", has dissasembled yeasterday my a860 without any problem.
Vladimir Kunschikov thank you so much! Спасибо!
Thanks for the video! Dab why did they make it so complicated like this! To dig for the hard desk it looks like digging for oil!
Poor engeneering. Why don't just have a cover to the HD under the notebook :p
I really have to do all that to remove the damned hd
Thank you. Helped me change CMOS battery.
Someone just donated this model of laptop to an orphanage where i help with maintaining their notebooks in my free time. The hdd has failed. It's a nightmare to replace the hdd! one of the most frequently replaced items other than RAM. One of the worst designed notebook where everything has to be taken apart to access the HDD! I told the orphanage director to forget about using this notebook! I ain't got the time to remove and put everything back without damaging any screw or cable mounts! But I am keen to replace it some day, as the CPU supports 64-bit and capable of running modern windows 10 and other 64-bit linux os.
Thank you for this video. Today i successfully replaced HDD and assembled the laptop.
Thanks for the upload Regazzz, what a crappy place to put a damn harddrive x-(
Oh yeah, dells designer was weird while designing this one :)
Hi!
Thanks for this video it helped me take apart my DELL A860.
My problem started a year ago when its display went black.
Laptop was working properly I took a lamp and lightened the display only so I could use the Laptop.I took the plastic cover of the display off and there is a little white duse (at 04.04 minutes see in your video) and I was lasy turning off the Lpt and under curent I touched the white duse with a tiny screwdriver.I short circuited only 2 hair tiny wires.Can't be turned on.
Exactly what I was looking, sincerely, thank you. :)
Traduzindo para o português:
"Oi!
Sem música. Sem falar. Apenas trabalhe.
Se for desmontar o laptop, tenha cuidado e use uma pulseira antiestática ou outro dispositivo antiestático. Se você precisar trocar um LCD, geralmente não precisa tirar a tela de um laptop. Você pode deixá-lo em um laptop e assistir à última parte do vídeo em que estou desmontando o LCD. Se você precisar trocar um teclado, não precisa remover todos os parafusos inferiores. Normalmente existem algumas marcas, como uma imagem de teclado, na parte inferior de uma caixa. Se você precisar colocar um laptop de volta para funcionar, lembre-se dos parafusos. Eles são diferentes e é melhor você lembrar ou marcá-los de alguma forma para garantir que você os colocará de volta no lugar certo.
Alguns laptops eu desmonto na primeira vez, então não leve a sério o meu tempo e desempenho.
Se algo quebrou - opa, a culpa é sua.
Acredite em mim, algumas partes do seu laptop já estão quebradas, você simplesmente não vê isso.
Então, basta assistir a este vídeo e consertar seu laptop.
Divirta-se e boa sorte!!"
Bende manyak gibi alayani söktüm peşinden sadece thermal macun yenile me yapacaktım great thanks
Very good vídeo
You are welcome!
You are welcome!!
Thanks men I am so thankful to you!
thank you very much!
Hi,
it is only that way. And this is very sad, because you need to remove a motherboard out from bottom case for it.
The only thing I would suggest is to maybe find a KIT that allow you to remove DVD and install it to instead of DVD. And probably in a bios turn off your main hard drive and it will just sit there ... (just figure out that idea :))
I am not sure if it will workout well...
thank you for the work i need it
Thank you for this awesome demonstration. I had a question hopefully you can answer. My laptop wont turn on. At first thought it was adapter but then it turns out it was actually the battery. I got a replacement battery now but even then the laptop wont turn on even though the blue light comes on indicating its charging. If I push the power button it makes the noise that its starting up and number lock and the 3rd lock light up but the caps lock just blinks. about 7 seconds later just stops. any suggestions or clues as to what might be going on?
Good for you!!! Thanks!
Thanks, man.
Toshiba Satellite L755D-S5162. Is Awesome, my first AMD computer.
Thank u bro
so helpfull bigs thank man...
You are welcome!
Muito bom o vídeo, Pior Notebook que já desmontei, que dor de cabeça, Pqp. Obrigado pelo Vídeo.
I am sure if crucial site telling it is compatible - it is compatible.
Demonter tout le pc juste pour changer le disque dur super je vais m'amuser^^
Yep!
I should take two, but there was only one. :)
Is fan working? Did you changed cooling compound? Are you sure everything is connected?
Actually - Victorinox Swiss Army Knife, but I think it is pretty much the same :)
Thank you so much!!!
Merciiii
from 6:53 to 6:57 you uplug and remove a cable. What is that part? I've watched 4 A860 take apart videos and two have the cable and two don't have it. Mine doesn't seem too. Thanks
Terry Cummins Hi,
I think it's the BlueTooth Module. ☺
You know, sometimes even a little discharge will damage it. I am not sure about some fuses there. Sorry, at this point I am helpless.
Hope, finally, you will fix everything
You may improve it with C2D T9900. But I this decision will be completely yours! :)
When you will decide to change CPU, don't forget to buy cooling paste, maybe watch somewhere a video about how to apply it, etc
Memory 4gb (2x2) DDR2 PC-6400
Have a good luck!
thank you, man
You are welcome!
Yes, it should be right!
after you installed audio driver it stopped working?
Did you shorted your motherboard. If so, you may buy another one to change.
I have acquired one of these laptops, I was considering upgrading it with extra ram and an SSD, but now I see where the HD is located I don't think I'll bother, what a nightmare!
Haha ya better not mess if its working..i have same but its thermal paste needs to be replaced. I doubt i wont be able to assemble if I opens
Hard drive is located on the other side of a motherboard. 8.37.
Hi, what was an original problem? Was your original screen bad? What do you get on external screen? Probably screen is bad.
I don't know what is a difference, since I don't know what CPU do you have :)
Glad to help, what Toshiba do you have?
My Dell Vostro A840 not working. I want to transfer data from hard drive (Dell Vostro A840) to another computer. I have removed hard disk from laptop. Please suggest which SATA converter should I use for it?
Great video - a lot of screws and parts.
However, could you please tell me where the CMOS battery is located, and maybe the easiest way to replace it.
Northman thank you. At 8.43 when I am unscrewing a HDD Caddy. On the upper left corner of the board you will see something blue. That's a CMOS battery. It can be unplugged and plugged back.
Have a nice day!
regazzz ..... Thank you, much appreciated - and you, have a great day.
Did you tried to start with another ac adapter?
Agreed!!
First thing I removed at about 0.15
I am not sure you can run a 64-bit on this laptop, need to dig in to specs...
also, the screen just went black of a suddon and is unusable. It wasn't hit by anything hard my dad was just using it briefly on his desk and it just went! any reasons why that might have happened?
What do you see on external screen?
I have exactly this laptop, is there a way of getting to the hard disk without pulling it totally apart? was seriously considering swapping its hard disk with an SSD.
Hi, Unfortunatelly I don't know if the motherboard is shorted that is what I would like to find out somehow:(. The laptop can not be turned on after having touched that damned little white duse.
I was hoping you say that there is a fuse or something alike somewhere on the motherboard which can be replaced by such kind of shortings. I can not fancy how could two such a hair tiny wires do any harm on the motherboard. I did not sense a smoke just a secondly tsiss" Any Idea is welcomed Thanks :)
pls help me i have problem with my vostro a860 no speaker sound when played music, but if i used headset i heard the sound....i check my sound drivers the components work properly in i also installed conexant audio driver in dell website...please help me with my problem...
Hahaha :) We will have no oil if it will be that hard :)
multumesc pt. aceasta demonstratie , dar mie frica sa demontez eu laptopul :d
You are welcome!
regazzz unde sa vin :)) de unde sunteti?
I regazzz! I reassembled my laptop but when I turn on it, it shuts down by itself like it's overheated. What it can be? Thanks
as it called drill using
Hey there, I tried replacing the screen to my dell vostro a860 but the screen will slowly fade in when turned on and stops working after 1 or 2 minutes. Any suggestions?
Hi, no, it is not removable...
Спасибо, помог!
***** Пожалуйста!
Can anyone please tell me what should I check out on my DELL A860's motherboard to resolve the under mentioned short circuit problem? I have the Laptop taken apart.
هل كرت الشاشه منفصل او مدمج انا معي نفس الجهاز تمامن intel graphics media accelerator x3100
I have a video for this laptop, but not online, just let me know when you will need this, if it will be not online at that time :)
The same thing you would see if you were to see it on the laptop screen. (same guy you replied to, just a different account cos something went wrong with that account that I i first commented on)
if the same thing is on the external, it is probably a video problem.
Ha, try some hp probook :)
either dc jack is bad or motherboard bad.
woud i be able to use a ssd as a bootdrive on this laptop? Is it compatable? I went on the crucial wesite and one of the recommended upgrades was an ssd. They were also saying that the laptop is a guaranteed compatable too!
Get A SATA SSD
How can i replace the hard drive in a simple way? without disassemble all the laptop
Alonso Hernandez Porras it's ridiculous, but there is no other way. They placed this HDD under motherboard...
regazzz I was just checking your video to confirm my fear and it showed one of the worst locations for the HDD I have ever seen. It is insane that they design laptops with the HDD buried so deep that you literally have to deconstruct the entire laptop to fix/replace.
Well... I better get started with wasting 30-45 minutes of my life.
Jeff Broxton yep, a860 is like that. I hope you will be able to fix it.

...und dann sagte ich zum Kunden (ohne das Gerät vorher gesehen zu haben): HDD gegen SSD tauschen? Max. 20 Min. - ist gaaanz easy... ja, ja - so lernt man dazu. Auch Dell baut Kacke. Dieser Vostro toppt wirklich ALLES im Bezug auf den Einbau der Festplatte, was ich bisher jemals gesehen habe (und ich habe in den letzten 30 Jahren schon viel gesehen)... Wer das Ding konstruiert hat, dem kann man nur wünschen, dass er niemals in die Hölle kommt - sonst muss er dort wahrscheinlich den ganzen Tag HDDs bei dem Mist-Ding wechseln. Schlimmere Strafe geht kaum ;-).
GottTS genau, das ist idiotisch!
:))))
