    Hi. Could you tell me how to disassembly aluminium panel? It sticks out to the left side of touchpad (about 2-3mm); probably just over the HDD. When I push it, then it SCREECHES. I also have a problem with Fingerprint Reader, as it is awry mounted (i'd like to correct it too).

    Thank you in advance.

    One more question - am I going to lose my warranty? Or I just should contact DELL and let them correct it? (I have 1yr NBD, 290 days remaining)

    Cheers

    Contact Dell, don't mess with it it may void your warranty. If it was mine I would tell them I want a new replacement.
