Intro change inverter in lce desktop screen.
step 1 Open up the LCD screen.
Take you screen turn it over and unscrew all the back screws. then carefully take of the back plastic panel, it is usually gripped on very well, so i would recommend taking two flat screwdrivers and slowly prying it open.
step 2 Underneath the plastic panel
Most LCD screens are very similar, but some have the inverters beneath a safety metal panel and some have them on the bottom lower part of the LCD.
step 3 Remove the inverter
This is the most dangerous part of the whole operation, be CAREFUL!
Take of the power connectors from the inverter, unscrew the inverter from the metal panel and place it in a safety Ziploc bag.
Caution: The inverter has literally thousands of volts inside it and if you touch the wrong part you are toast.

About floating hinge. floating hinge is a hinge that, while able to behave as a normal hinge, enables one of the objects to move away from the other - hence float. In effect the hinge allows for two parallel axes of rotation, one for each object joined by the hinge, and each axis can be moved relative to the position of the other.
Floating hinges are used in flatbed scanners designed to scan thick objects such as books. A sheet of paper is placed on the glass, and the cover is lowered over it; the glass, the paper, and the sheet are very close together. If a thick book is placed on the glass an ordinary hinge would leave the cover at an angle to the glass. A floating hinge raises the hinged edge of the cover to the level of the book, so that the cover remains parallel to the glass, but raised above it.
Floating hinges are also used in two-plate electric cooking grills, as they allow for even heating of both sides of a thick piece of food without crushing it

Intro Laptop Hinge Hack
step 1 Get Lid Support
Buy a lid support at a local hardware store. This one is 7.5"...a bit too large for my laptop.
step 2 Get APPROPRIATE Lid Support
This lid support has a sliding piece with a screw and washers for smooth movement. If you take the washers out, the screw will act as a tensioner, limiting or completely eliminating sliding.
step 3 Take screw out and start squishing
You can get thumb screws in nearly any size, but squashing the head of a screw in a vise to make your own is so much more fun (see photo 2).
step 4 Prepare your work area
For this practice run I used hot glue....the final hack will use A/B epoxy or similar adhesive.
step 5 Scuff surface
Scuffing the surface helps glue/epoxy adhere. It gives it something to "stick" to.
step 6 Glue base to laptop body
This part is easy- you glue the base of the lid support to the furthest point closest to the old hinge....meaning as far "back" as possible. Don't forget to allow for clearance of the little pivot point that holds the arm and base together....too far in and the lid won't close. Notice it is a bit off to the right?
step 7 Glue slider to lid
This is a bit tricky....you probably want to be closer-than-center to the hinge end of the laptop. This will allow for the the lid to be open or closed in the most amount variable positions. You don't want to be too far one way or the other, but I found that one width of the slider towards the lid hinge from center of the lid is optimal.
step 8 Re-assemble screw/slider
Once the slider is fixed to the lid, reassemble the "thumb" screw and lockback (a metal washer would work too) Use the thumb screw to loosen or tighten as needed for positions. Notice the luxurious brassness? That's high class.
step 9 Final thoughts.
I am going to use better adhesive as stated in previous step. Hot glue doesn't cut it as a permanent fix. Although it worked great to test the hack. I am sure A/B epoxy or "JB Weld" will work MUCH better. Maybe even small screws, but I am afraid to start screwing into my laptop.

What contains: One set of hinges (Left and right)
A hinge is a type of bearing that connects two solid objects, typically allowing only a limited angle of rotation between them. Two objects connected by an ideal hinge rotate relative to each other about a fixed axis of rotation. Hinges may be made of flexible material or of moving components. In biology, many joints function as hinges. They are also known as shangles in old tudorian English. Hinge-like structures are employed in many types of movable bridges.

Condition: Original New
Clean a keyboard
step 1 What you need
You will need:
a keyboard
Rubbing alcohol
Cotton swabs
Something to rub the gunk onto. I used some toilet paper.
A flathead screwdriver, or something similar
step 2 Take off the keys!
Unplug your keyboard. I don't think anything bad will happen if you don't, but still. Better safe than sorry.
Take your flathead screwdriver (or similarly shaped tool), and stick it under one of the corners of the key. It helps if you have a part of the screwdriver touching the edge of the "pit" in the keyboard. Cover the area with your hand, so that the key doesn't go flying. Now just push down on the screwdriver, using it kind of like a lever.
Now just repeat it over 100 times for the rest of your keyboard. Make sure that you organize your keys, so that when you put them back, they're in the right spot. I recommend you do 1 section at a time, so there's less to keep track of. If you do manage to mix them up, here's a good image to use to put them back.
step 3 Clean it!
First, take your keyboard to a garbage can, and shake. Let the solid particles fall into the garbage can. Now take a cotton swab, and soak it with the rubbing alcohol. Clean everything out. Rub the key, and then rub the pit. This should dis-infect and clean them both. Now rub the gunk off onto the paper. Don't worry about the alcohol getting inside the keyboard, it evaporates really quickly.
step 4 Stick the keys back in
Now that all the keys are clean, put them back in. Use a moderate amount of force. Make sure that it's aligned properly, and push down. You should feel and hear a loud click of sorts, and it should now work.For the keys with two posts, push in the side with the full post first. Then, push the other side in. Now test the key, and make sure it feels like it should.If your some of your larger keys (like the spacebar, enter, etc.) has a metal bar, this is going to be harder. Make sure the keys to the side of the key aren't on yet. This will make it easier. Now, detach one side of the metal bar. Place the bar in the plastic clips. Now align the post with the well, and stick it in half-way. Now just stick your finger under the side with the un-attached bar, and clip the bar back into the clip on the key. If you didn't quite understand that, check out the pictures.

Clean a keyboard
step 1 What you need
You will need:
a keyboard
Rubbing alcohol
Cotton swabs
Something to rub the gunk onto. I used some toilet paper.
A flathead screwdriver, or something similar
step 2 Take off the keys!
Unplug your keyboard. I don't think anything bad will happen if you don't, but still. Better safe than sorry.
Take your flathead screwdriver (or similarly shaped tool), and stick it under one of the corners of the key. It helps if you have a part of the screwdriver touching the edge of the "pit" in the keyboard. Cover the area with your hand, so that the key doesn't go flying. Now just push down on the screwdriver, using it kind of like a lever.

Keyboard Types
Standard
Standard keyboards, the 101-key US traditional keyboard 104-key Windows keyboards, include alphabetic characters, punctuation symbols, numbers and a variety of function keys. The internationally-common 102/105 key keyboards have a smaller 'left shift' key and an additional key with some more symbols between that and the letter to its right (usually Z or Y).
Gaming and multimedia

Keyboards with extra keys, such as multimedia keyboards, have special keys for accessing music, web and other oft-used programs, a mute button, volume buttons or knob and standby (sleep) button. Gaming keyboards have extra function keys, which can be programmed with keystroke macros. For example, 'ctrl+shift+y' could be a keystroke that is frequently used in a certain computer game. Shortcuts marked on color-coded keys are used for some software applications and for specialized for uses including word processing, video editing, graphic design and audio editing.
Numeric keyboards contain only numbers, mathematical symbols for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, a decimal point, and several function keys (e.g. End, Delete, etc.). They are often used to facilitate data entry with smaller keyboard-equipped laptops or with smaller keyboards that do not have a numeric keypad.
