    I've been having the squeaky latch problem with my 1520 since I got and I decided to pop off the top plate (the one that contains the power button) to see what the problem really was. After I took it off I noticed that a piece of metal which holds the latch in place moves a little bit when I open and shut my laptop. I'm thinking that if i put something in to block it from moving, it will fix the squeaking issue. Has anyone had any luck fixing this?
