I just wanted to compliment you again on having the most well-designed laptop repair tutorials out there. The world is full of amateurish videos attempting to show people how to take apart their laptops and do repairs, but your outstanding photos and explanations are spot on, every time. The video sites are usually poorly done. Other pictures only sites are not well thought out and complete like yours. Good job my friend! Keep up the good work.

Sorry I don’t have money, but I learned from you that my hinges can be tightened via the back via the little rubber holders. Thank you laptop man.

OK, I’m having quite the trouble figuring out how to route the display cable, wifi adapter lead, etc. through and around the hinge, while trying to get the bezel and bottom case back on. Is there any way you could show this procedure?

In reply to nick. No, you cannot change the processor because it's soldered to the motherboard. If you need a faster processor you'll have to replace the motherboard. You can find a list of different motherboards in the service manual. The link is at the end of the disassembly guide. For Intel motherboards the list of part numbers located on the page 73.

I have a HP 15 db 0043nr that has no Cd rom/ dvd writer. I ordered a proper
Drive for the model, even the texture is the same on the case. Im
wondering if i can order a lower case bottom that has the cd rom cutout in it.
So i can use it.

Thank you! I was able to diagnose and fix my laptop with your help. It was a loose video cable behind the screen! The complete disassembly you did was extremely valuable. It is the only one I was able to find that actually aligned with the model laptop I had.

In reply to gabriyl. gabriyl, It looks like HP Notebook 15-dy0013dx can support two types of drives - a regular 2.5" HDD and a solid state drive PCIe, NVMe. Here are part numbers for the connector boards for both drives (found in the service manual): (5) Hard drive bracket L20455-001 (6) Hard drive connector board L20454-001 (7) Hard drive/solid-state drive cable L20456-001 (8) Solid-state drive bracket L20458-001 (9) Solid-state drive connector board L20457-001
