Its not as hard as you might think. Some people can build normal computers but when it comes to a laptop they freak out. Its all the same stuff just smaller. I often wonder why the hell desktops are so big. I mean if you can get a 200 gig drive to be the size of a pack of smokes why in the hell would you make one the size of an address book? But either way, all you have to do is look over the laptop, you will find the screws that need to come out (place them in a bag they are very small) and 99% of everything in a laptop is connected via wires and plugs that you can not place in any other slot at all. Unless you forced it but then that would break it again lol. Anyway good luck with it. I must tell you that if the laptop is from compaq dont bother trying to take it apart they have some kind of special screw driver and head on the screws. Typical compaq bullshit.
