Thank you very much, it is very helpful.
Just before I try to do this, I have a question to someone who has done it
before.
Will I need to disassemble the whole LCD, as in detaching the hinges from
the chasis? Or will just removing the front bezel and rear cover do the
trick?
I think all I need is to tighten something in the hinges....
Cheers!

On my almost 1.5-year-old T61 the screen lid has become a little loose. When<br>
opening and closing I still feel the same friction or pressure back, but<br>
once open if you kinda' tilt it back and forth it has a little swing or<br>
movement. I was about to see if there where screws to tighten but I'm afraid<br>
of breaking something. I couldn't find instructions on thinkwiki or anywhere<br>
else.<br>
Has someone disassembled (and successfully reassembled) these laptops? How<br>
to?<br>
Thanks!<br>
