I found an old IBM thinkpad!

Hoa 2 fix?

It has a small disconnection where the power cable goes.

Also, what should I do with it?

[IkeTheGeneric]

Bring it to a computer repair shop

[TeslaCoil]

How much would that cost?

Probably more than that laptop is worth.

Do you own a soldering iron?

Do you own a soldering iron?

I can borrow one if that counts.

Could you take a picture of the problem? I don't quite understand what you mean.

If you mean that that the female port in the back of the laptop is loose then you should solder it back in (unless you don't know how to solder in which case you probably end up killing it (supposing that it is still alive)).

Or you could tie the wires back together and get some tape.

[Caution]

Those things are pieces of stuff.

Yes, this is the problem.


No, I can't use tools.

Typical me.

Exactly, thats why I want to use it for work.

If you can find an asian they might be able to fix it for free.
