Hello members
My notebook's screen hinge broke off on the display side. The notebook is still running perfectly so I'm desperate to find a screen with intact hinges.
Maybe someone here has such a laptop which is surplus?
Looking forward to any replies.
Thanks

Haha! I have three of these, all with hinges in various states of disrepair. Aside from the gradually failing hinges, they have been the best laptops I've owned. One still mostly works, but I'm still using it for my daily driver. If you find a good source of replacement screens I'd love to know ;)

It doesn't take too long(our "friend" Google) to find out that the hinge problem wasn't my problem. At the start I thought someone of us dropped it. Na!

 

If I find something I will post here.

Hello All
Best wishes for the festive season!

Update;
I contacted the ASUS approved repairer and they replaced the entire screen. It wasn't cheap with the courier costs counted. They did a good job and I'm very happy with it.
