One brand, that I avoid the most. Laptop works without a battery, replacement could be hard but possible. Seems like you are not in the best of luck, what I also read on Twitter "to help out with car repairs and for my 3 boys". Wishing you good luck.

Memphis keeps getting hit hard with storms and when they do, power goes out down there so that means folks not being able to cook or get orders. hubby does Uber Eats. Soon I will be able to work once my 3 yr old gets into Kindergarten fulltime. For now I am streaming to twitch and i am affiliated there so each time i reach the payout limit i can cash out but that will take time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, that doesnt mean that individual *parts* arent made in China. Like 'American' cars with overseas suppliers.

The ones that were ordered over a year ago and are stuck somewhere on a boat, off a coast, in a port, on a dock, in a truck that is stopped on a bridge making a statement, at a overworked Amazon warehouse, alongside a train track in LA in a trash pile, or my favorite stolen off a front porch near you. So if we started making shit in Merica we could reduce supply chain issues by almost 50%, the other issues are self inflicted. If it will never arrive it doesn't matter where it is made.

Decent tutorial on how to replace the battery. Not 100% sure with these newer laptops but, it should work if you just remove the battery and keep it plugged in. I have a laptop that still works fine without a battery in it. Just have to keep it plugged in. I have it hooked to my TV to stream movies and stuff since I don't have Cable TV.

She plays sims, does a lot of art work, streams her artwork drawings to show how she makes her pledge badges for her fans n etc. jointz, KaptCrunch and J3st3r 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can catch fire and/or explode. Lithium batteries can be pretty darn nasty. Don't throw it in the trash. I've seen a few fires started that way. Take it outside and whack it with a hammer a couple times and see what it does? lol Did that with my old phone battery and it swelled up and caught fire. Video of a laptop battery being poked with a simple thumbtack. Laptop might be on it's last leg. They will quickly overheat from a bad fan, clogged up by dust or by being used on a bed which covers the fan ports. When they overheat, the solder under the CPU and GPU chips and GPU memory chips melt. It can be fixed by someone that has the equipment and knows how to re-ball the solder joints but it costs alot and usually doesn't last. See what she means about "acting weird" If it's crashing or artifacting or the graphics driver constantly crashing and reloading when loading stuff (screen goes black and screen flickers a couple times then comes back up) If it does that she's hurt bad. Looked on Ebay and there are a bunch of new motherboards for it but they are $265+ for the base model with the i7-8750H and GTX 1060 and the OEM battery is around $90 and the fans are $40 for the pair. Looks like that laptop still sells for $850-$1200 used so it is worth fixing if you are up to the challenge lol. You Might have to run system restore or try to contact Razer to get the OS to load with the new motherboard. https://www.ebay.com/itm/154342767302?hash=item23ef8bbac6:g:9uAAAOSwz0JgNVuT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
