While trawling other info in the chassis I managed to find the 'correct' way to remove the back is to apparently push the centre screw up which should push the keyboard up enough to slide something thin under it and then lever off. Honestly this sounds harder than the method I said above XD

Did the recoil lll charger work fine? It's also not listed under my spares :/. I've been looking on here and other places and having a lot of trouble finding a replacement.

@andjef796 yup checked both and not available unfortunately. I was hoping for a possible exception as they had advised that they would be unable to supply the guy on the phone suggested sites beginning with A and E respectively (tacit approval?) but from what I can see their as likely to be...

@barlew So have gotten a reply after phoning that they do not have in stock, I'm assuming the forum is not allowed to provide 3rd party recommendations? Did also get tech support reply saying they do but going from the price they did not look at the correct spec of power supply. (11.8A 19.5v...

Hey I can help with this 🙂, so for some reason even with all the screws out (yes you have them all and the centre does not fully come out on mine either) you need to apply force to get the case off. Now obviously you don't want to go sticking screwdrivers into the side and levering it so the...

Yeah I figure it may require going into bios to make sure it boots from the right drive or possibly finding an external connector need to do a bit of reading up, ofc drive may be fried as the old laptop died a pretty sudden death (pop + burning smell from laptop now no response to power, LEDS or...

Wouldn't really want to go any higher than £1600 which seems to be enough to get 16gb of the quick RAM so I guess that's sorted heh

Ahhh nice catch RAM wasn't that old so thought would be fine DDR3L on the back so I'm guessing not compatible?

Just configured this laptop as a mid to high end laptop which I expect to see quite a lot of gaming over the next few years (was currently playing TW:WH2 on low settings on old laptop and borderlands2) fairly happy with the specs in general but had some concerns over power supply as after...
