Complete disassembly of the Msi Wind U90 laptop. Disassembling the MSI VR601 laptop

In this article, we will tell you how to disassemble and clean the MSI GT683 gaming laptop.

If your goal is to clean your laptop from dust, then it is enough to unscrew just one screw, marked in red. After this, the fan can be easily removed, opening access to the radiators of the cooling system. If you want to go further and replace the thermal paste, then you should remove the radiators by unscrewing the screws marked in green, and if you need it completely, you will also need to unscrew the screws marked in yellow.

In our case, the cooling system was not very dirty, but it still wouldn’t hurt to clean it.

Next, remove the radiators and take out the HDD. To remove the hard drive, pull the strap on the end of the device. Next, remove the video card by unscrewing the screw holding it.

For further disassembly, remove the keyboard; to do this, you need to release the latches holding it in the picture below, they are marked in green. The keyboard should be pulled out carefully so as not to deform it or damage the cable. Then you should remove the decorative panel on which the power button and touch buttons are located. To do this, release the latches on the bottom of the laptop and remove the panel. The socket holds quite tightly, so you will need to apply some force.

Next, unfasten all the marked cables and unscrew the 4 screws holding the matrix. Removing the matrix gives access to two screws holding the decorative socket under the matrix; unscrewing them, the socket can be removed quite easily.

After dismantling the motherboard, we find that under the power connector the motherboard is burned through. This happened due to mechanical damage to the connector itself; apparently the owners of the laptop pulled the power cord hard. The repair consisted of rebuilding the motherboard and soldering a new connector.

Be careful with the wires connected to your laptop, one wrong move and you're in for a costly one. And do not forget to keep the device clean, and it will serve you faithfully.

Today we decided to talk about the MSI MS 1356 laptop. We’ll look at how to disassemble the device in detail below. After all, not every user had to deal with this. Disassembling a laptop is required in various situations. For example, when a laptop PC starts to slow down or make a lot of noise, then it should definitely be cleaned of dust. Also, disassembling a laptop is necessary to fix various problems. For example, if a laptop breaks down, then it will definitely have to be disassembled for testing and troubleshooting.

MSI MS 1356: how to disassemble the device

The task is not the easiest. However, if you want to carry out the disassembly process yourself, then you should exercise maximum care and also follow the instructions that we will now give.

Algorithm

So, let's give a detailed description of how to open an MSI MS 1356 laptop. First of all, you should remove the battery. At the place where the battery was installed, you can find a sticker on which it is written that the laptop has the Windows 7 home version operating system installed. Naturally, before disassembling your laptop PC, you will need to rewrite the key located on this element, just in case. Next, on the back of the device you will be able to find six screws; as you can already understand, you will need to unscrew them, after which you will be able to remove the back cover. It must be lifted from the device very carefully. At the same time, you will need to make an effort, as it holds quite tightly. Once the cover is removed, you need to turn your attention to further disassembly.

Conclusion

If you decide to simply clean the laptop from dust, then you will only need to unscrew a few screws, after which you can completely “clean” the device. The most important thing for you in this case is the ability to access the fan. To ensure this, you need to unscrew just one screw on the MSI MS 1356 case. How to completely disassemble the device is a more complex question. In some cases, many people want to completely clean the device. This requires complete disassembly of the device, which requires not only maximum care, but also perseverance and accuracy. Currently, there are also special circuits that will facilitate correct operation of the device when open. Now you know everything you need about the MSI MS 1356 laptop. We described in detail above how to disassemble this laptop computer.

So we have: an MSI VR601 laptop with a rattling cooling fan.

And for one thing you need to add RAM.

Everything is as usual, first we remove the largest cover (the one on the left). It should be noted that there is a bolt under the "Warranty Sticker". Speaking of this sticker. If your laptop is serviced at the Moscow service center "Serso" (and it seems to be the only one authorized S/C), then you can safely peel off this sticker. There is an agreement with the service about installing RAM yourself, and this operation cannot be done without damaging this sticker.

Below is a photo from which you can figure out how to add RAM. Any so-DDR2 memory will do. You can forget about two-channel (this is my deep conviction) and install brackets from different manufacturers. The probability that it will work with errors is exactly the same as with modules from the same manufacturer. Judging by the memtest tests, Samsung and Transcend worked fine for me.

Next we need to remove the cooling system. To do this, just unscrew four bolts. I marked them with red dots. Fun fact - the bolt locations are numbered for cross tightening of the screws. This is necessary in order not to damage the processor crystal.

After unscrewing, remove the entire system at once:

That's it! All that remains is to disconnect the cooler’s power cable and you can pull it out completely:

After we have taken everything out, we change the gray dried thermal paste (which is safe and convenient to scrape off with a credit card) with Alsil, blow out the radiator and lubricate the cooler.
After all this, we assemble in reverse order.

This article clearly shows how to completely disassemble an MSI U90 laptop. The reasons for disassembly can be different, from adding a new RAM stick to replacing the laptop matrix.

So, let's get started.

Here's the laptop itself:

First, remove the battery:

Next you need to remove the keyboard, removing it is not at all difficult, first you need to press forward (away from the keyboard) from above with something thin, in those places where shown, thereby freeing the upper part from the holders.

Then we carefully take it out, don’t forget, there are also holders on the sides, and from below you just need to pull it out.

After this, you will need to disconnect the keyboard cable from the motherboard. It comes out very easily, you just need to lift the latch, it is circled in red in the photo:

Once the back cover has been successfully removed, you need to unscrew the fan so that you can remove the heatsink from the processor and northbridge.

After that, unscrew the bolt that holds the hard drive in its place.

And we easily take it out by lifting and pulling.

Unscrew the topmost bolts:

And we carefully pull out the motherboard, but not sharply and not so far, because there is a cable left that we did not disconnect from the motherboard, going to the touchpad.

Disconnect the touchpad cable from the motherboard:

The result is the following picture:)

Now we will disconnect the monitor, although it could have been disconnected before, but for some reason I decided to leave it for later, in short, as it is more convenient for someone. We open the laptop, just be careful, the monitor is attached to the case made of iron, and they are held in place by plastic stops, do not break them.
