#It's probably cheaper to buy a new laptop#but pretty much every device that isn't apple can be opened disassembled and reassembled easily if you know what you're doing#you can fix pretty much anything that isn't actual mold or plants growing in the hardware
In my experience there's rarely any point in refurbishing these cheap skinny laptops because they're built to save as much space as possible and even if you can source the right size and shape parts the integrity of the whole device is never quite the same. This is one of those purely plastic-cased cheap thingies that are barely wide enough to accommodate their own USB ports. I've sent laptops to professionals and they still come back physically more fragile. I drop this thing too often to go opening it up and permanently weakening the structural integrity.
If this was my desktop I would've taken the Mysterious Rattling Broken Part out 2 years ago. And replaced whatever it is too I guess. But my inexpert gorilla hands should not stray within laptops.
It's also, to be honest, not worth saving. It cost me a couple of hundred bucks a decade ago and has been running Linux for years because about 6 years ago a Windows update made Windows too large to fit on the hard drive any more.
