    Laptop has been screwed


    Okay, I'm really worried. Recently, I was fishing about and found one of my laptops from a couple of years ago. This was an Acer Aspire One Cloudbook with 2GB RAM and 32GB storage. I wanted to wipe Windows off of it, as the Windows account connected to it was a business account I had used a couple of years ago. I'm not the most tech savvy, so I had to google a tutorial, but I completely wiped the computer and plugged in a Windows 10 Home USB I had from a few months ago.

    It was all going fine and installing when at about 21% it stopped increasing. I was worried it had become locked or something like that, so I had it next to me for most of the day. The problem is, it ran out of power, and now I can't use the thing. It loads up the Acer logo, and slowly but sure looks like it's going to start, before I get an annoying "Error occurred, click 'okay' to restart the computer. Then, begin the installation process again."

    The problem is, I click "okay", and as this is a wiped laptop, it has nothing connected to it, so what I just described loops.

    Please help!

    :)

    Laptop screws and broken spinning threaded nuts :-(

    Hello
    Is there a trick to open original never opened laptop screws ?
    If I open like 10 screws about 2/10pcs always have broken\loose spinning brass threaded nuts.
    I have opened a Lenovo(2008) and a HP(2015) laptop when trying to fit SSDs and both ended up with some spinning threaded nuts.
    -> When unable to open the case I just end up using a DVD drive caddy for the damn SSDs.
    • Laptop screws always have that massive amount of tip goo (=red or blue colored rubber thread seal) in threads which I believe is causing the spinning screw issue. Please Chinese we don't need the "goo".
    • Or the Chinese just over tighten the screws.
    • Also cheap thin plastic around brass nuts.
