Knowing how to disassemble the HP Mini 210 netbook is essential if you
want to replace failed hardware components or upgrade to better hardware
yourself. Disassembling your netbook will familiarize you with the
locations of the major components. All you need for the task are a few
basic tools, about half an hour and a grounding strap to prevent static
electricity from damaging the components inside your netbook.
Instructions
1. Shut down your HP Mini 210 netbook. Disconnect the power cord and any
devices connected to the netbook. Lift up the netbook and place it
upside down on a flat surface. Position the netbook so the battery is
closest to you
2. Push the battery-unlock latch on the right side of the battery on the
netbook to the left. Push the battery-release latch on the left side of
the battery to the right. Lift and remove the battery.
3. Slide the base cover-release latch on the back wall of the left side of
the battery bay to the right. Lift and remove the base cover on the back
of the HP Mini 210 netbook. Locate the hard drive above the battery
bay.
4. Unplug the hard drive cable extending from the left side of the hard
drive bracket and plugged into the HP Mini 210 netbook. Remove the two
screws on the left side of the bracket and the one screw on the right
side of the bracket. Lift and remove the bracket. Remove the two screws
outside of the left and right sides of the hard drive bay and above the
center of the hard drive bay.
5. Push the holding clips on the short edges of the memory module, located
in the upper left corner of the HP Mini 210 netbook, outward. The module
will pop up. Carefully remove the module.
6. Unplug the two cables from the bottom of the WLAN card in the
upper-right corner of the HP Mini 210 netbook. Remove the two screws
from the bottom of the WLAN card, causing it to tilt upward at a
45-degree angle. Pull the WLAN card carefully out of the netbook.
7. Lift up the HP Mini 210 netbook and set it down right-side up. Open the
display. Slide a flathead screwdriver in behind the last row of keys and
pry the keyboard up. Lift the keyboard and place it, keys down, in
front of the mouse touch pad. Lift up on the connector just behind the
mouse touch pad that holds the ribbon cable extending from the keyboard
in the netbook. Carefully pull the ribbon cable out of the netbook. Lift
and remove the keyboard.
