The laptop of one of my friends died a few weeks ago, so he asked me to take it apart and make a nice video about it. So, here it is! Enjoy! === COMPUTER SPECS === Compaq Presario 1260 Microsoft® Windows® 98, first release 4GB hard drive, unknown brand AMD K-2 3D Processor @ 333mHz Included outputs / inputs: 1x 54Kbps phone line modem 1x USB 1.0 port 1x Serial port 1x LPT1 (serial printer port) 1x VGA out (for connecting a different screen to the laptop) 1x PS/2 (for connecting a PS/2 …

Lol
I could have in the first part on the desk, but not when continuing on the floor. Sorry!
i wonder if he could put it back to gather.
Uhhmmm… that was my destiny. The video card already burnt up, so I couldn’t use it anyway.
I have a windows 98 laptop. Mine has about 150 MB of ram though.
Damn you fucking destroyed this beast
It uses all-day normal ‘cross-head’ screws.
what type of screw does the laptop uses
Note that I do not feel responsible for any damage to either you or the laptop. And that this was my first disassembly of a laptop EVER, so I was very unexperienced back then.
wow now i know the laptop innards now so i can dissemble a laptop now
It was not usable any more anyways: the video card was broken, and no parts are available any more for this computer.
By the way: I don’t think that you even would’ve wanted this thing. It was slow, the specs are low (even for Windows 98), you can’t even browse YouTube with it, and it’s… heavy.
I would have been happy to send it to you, but it’s already too late
Dam it I could of had that!
lmao thats a big 1 (laptop)
Ahora vuelve a montar las piezas del computador hasta que quede igual, jajajaja. XDXD
Saludos.
64MB of RAM, 4GB hard drive. It did run Windows XP fairly, but it got slow pretty fast when putting programs on it.
how much RAM? with the same CPU, 20gb hard drive and 512mb RAM, it would have quite happily ran Windows Xp.
Read the video information at the right of the video…
What brand of laptop it is
my friend has one
except he has a 350mhz processor
It looks like a smashing video!
Maybe for a hundred thousand dollars, jamsea07
. This is my first laptop mod, a personal milestone. 
Thanks for asking, though.
Heres the tutorial if you have a a spare laptop some where and some experience, but it’s a little difficult, more of a blog than a tutorial.

obviously replace the dot and com.
cani have it?? lol
Oh wow, that’s cool. The hard drive really is tiny, isn’t it?
As far as your story goes, it sounds very, very cool. I think you’ll have much pleasure with it; the possibilities are nearly impossible with Linux distro’s…
Be sure to put the heat sink back
I’m glad that I was able to help you with this time-lapse video.
-D.
Grr, sorry I keep posting at the top, I can’t reply even when I click the reply button on your comment. It always goes to the top. The thing defiantly doesn’t look good but its nice for my first laptop mod. I’m pretty pleased with it.
Took it apart with very little breakage, except for the speakers (stripped screws). Man, I couldnt believe the size of the hard-drive
. I took out everything except for the motherboard, then put back in the stuff I needed, and super glued the moniter on top of it all. The proccessor got really hot at one point, didn’t know what a heat sink was and left it out 
. Then I made a custom knoppix live cd distro to boot and make it act as a second moniter. Mission success, thanks for the video.
Yeas, it needs to be a laptop drive, since normal desktop drives simply won’t fit in those old systems. They still sell the laptop drives, though.
Would it have to be a laptop specific hard-drive? I have a spare 10gig desktop hard-drive that I was considering to try.
