[QUOTE="applefan124, post: 1581447, member: 325461"] Alright, that's great to know Nick. I decided to open it up, only problem is that all of my weird computer screw drivers do not fit into the screws holding onto the battery, so I will be seeing if my step dad has the working screw drivers, but if not then I'm going to order the iFixit set if it's not too expensive. After opening it up, which I only took off the bottom panel, I did notice some sticky spots, but it's not horrible. Once I get the right tools and am able to take the screws off, then take the battery out, I will hopefully be able to see more of it all. Hopefully it's all there and just waiting to be cleaned and what not. I noticed Apple made it alot easier for us to open their laptops. The Powerbook G4 I had was so annoying to work with, I think I had to take off the keyboard to get inside. Even this MBP is easier than my 17" Dell laptop. Any ways, will update this thread on what I discover next. [ATTACH=full]20485[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]20486[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
