"Nick, zou je een video/handleiding met plaatjes kunnen maken voor mij? Ik moet mijn wirless card vervangen maar krijg mijn laptop niet open.. Toen ik geprobeerd heb de laptop te openen ging het niet en ik heb nu een aantal krassen op de cover.

Bedoel je met de 'front' het deel waar het beeldscherm aan vast zit, of de andere kant?

Een video/handleiding zou veel hulp bieden!

Weet je ook toevallig of het serienummer o.i.d. op de draadloze netwerkkaart zit of zou ik ook een andere kunnen gebruiken??

Alvast bedankt!!

Nick, can you make a video/guide with pictures for me? I have to change my wireless card but i cant open my laptop.. When I tried to open the laptop I made some scratches on the cover.

Do you mean with the 'front' the part where the screen is located or the other side?

A video/guide would really help!

Do you maybe know if the serial stands on the wireless card or can I use an another one??

Thanks!!"

"This is mission impossible, not anything I could call ""easy""... I need to change my wifi-card and clean the fan. I'm stuck at prying out the corners, they just feel like they are holding in their place by screws. But no screws at sight. Is there any screws under the feet pads? What are those ""hidden"" screws mentioned? Those feet pads seem to be nearly impossible to tear apart and I wouldn't want to do that if it isn't necessary.

I've removed the drives, ram, optical drive and 4 screws under it. And of course all the other screws there are on the bottom, under the battery near the hard disks etc. It just feels like it will break if I pry it open any more. The middle part of the front was easy to pry open but these front corners... They look quite horrible now. I even bent a sturdy knife trying to pry it open. Nice job by asus to make a computer which is nearly impossible to even keep clean. Argh! Has anybody other than Nick succeeded in this?"

You can download the user manual first because not every time you have to take whole laptop apart just to replace WiFi card. It might be just a lower panel with one or two screws. Usually these wifi card comes with same port you can confirm the size whether its PCMCIA or any other and the order a replacement one.

"Hi, after that I change the original wifi card with the Intel 7260 that supports the 802.11ac protocols, it's all OK about the wireless connection (work in Win 8.1 and Ubuntu 14.04), but seems that the webcam don't work more: anyone can tell me where is located the relative cable so I can check if I plug well ??

Sorry for my english and thanks in advance !"
