needs the help to repair the Dell XPS18
This is an excellent doc! Pictures are really clear and accurate, steps are concise and best of all they are correct. I was able to solve my issue the first go round with these instructions. Kudos to the author and thanks a million for the assistance!
It all worked good. Thanks.
Excellent!
What is the battery type and where to buy, thanks
My unit is missing the right foot stand. Is there anywhere else I can find the model number. Need to purchase a new power supply?
Also might need to replace the touchscreen its cracked. Have to power her up first to find out. Do you have a video for touchscreen replacement?
