    Hi, can someone explain how to remove the hinge cover... I have tried prying with a small screw driver but am afraid I could break the case or the cover...

    If I had a picture of the underside of the cover it would be a great help in figuring out how it is attached...

    Thanks

    If you search around here or even youtube there should be a video about how to fix the hinge on the m15x. I personally remember putting a small flathead in cracks and pryed little by little. I think there are clips all around and you need to slide the screw drive up to dislodge them. Sorry for the bad description but search youtube I'm sure the video is still up.
