ACER ASPIRE 5315 take apart video, disassemble, how to open disassembly

[@regazzz]

It is a never a bad thing to check video about how to disassemble, to make sure how to or how not to take it apart :) Thanks for watching! Taking it all apart is a main target of this channel. And it is probably easiest one, because to put it back on video will take more time and effort.

[@threesim]

At last a good video that is right to the point helpfull and doesnt have silly background music. Thanks

[@AllHailDante]

Hey thanks for the dismantle. I couldnt figure out how to get the keyboard off. Didnt see those little screws in the battery compartment. Great video!

[@cyberp0et]

If the speakers cover won't move when you try to pry it off, then somethins is holding it from beneath :)

[@pellaken]

Thanks for posting this. I used this to take off my keyboard (which has been broken for some time) in order to get more air-cooling for my CPU.

[@andygozzo72]

nice, i have a 5715z which seems pretty much the same thing, dunno why they couldnt make it easier, though, some acers you have to totally strip down to get to the hard drive or even ram!

[@fabianlupidi]

(Spanish is ok, if you want). Hi, very usefull your video. I nned to repair / resold the right USB port AND the power jack. The seem to be loose or not well solded to their supports. The laptop charges sometimes, if you move the jack, it charges alternatively. After watching very carefully to the video I can see you must dismantle almost all the eq to reach the power jack, and after it, you unswitch is, like there is no soldering of the jack to the MOB. Thanks, from Argentina.

[@MoeHowardstooges]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video. It really helped me!

[@regazzz]

(sorry for late response) It can be also inverter, but usually lcd.

[@regazzz]

You may try to leave fan and heatsink in place, because it maybe possible to remove only palmrest and than lift up a motherboard a little and change a dc jack... but if it will not work, you may need to take motherboard out.

[@marycastillo1547]

Hi, I have a an acer aspire also and my screen keeps flickering and has lines across it I can still see the screen a little but i have to adjust it or put pressure on the corner. I think something is loose. Do you have any suggestions? and how could I identify the problem?

[@rcwaj2007sr]

Yeah i was curious on how much ram i could put on my acer so i watched your video to help guide me through opening it..although I'm a technician and do this everyday at work lol..but again thanks you should make a reassembly video now

[@regazzz]

I don't have this laptop right now, you may locate speakers and do it your self, it should be pretty easy!

[@happymanoftheworld]

Thanks for this regazz --- as a non-techy I was only able to remove hard drive after seeing that sliding action - just in time - I was trying to prise it out.

[@regazzz]

Hey, you are very welcome!

[@pevferreira]

Thanks for the video, it was very helpful. Greetings from Brazil!

[@regazzz]

You can remove carefully this keyboard without taking anything else out. Or you can remove it by removing power button cover first. There are some screws holding it on the bottom side (if I am not wrong). Good news that there are no screws holding this keyboard :) Have a good luck!

[@regazzz]

That was a whole idea!! Thank you!

[@andriexu6913]

hi, great video! where is the cmos battery located? is it on the front side (below keyboard) of the mainboard or is it on the back side? been playing the vids couple times, cant see to find it. please help

[@blayneoverman9654]

Hi!!! Great video!!!! I had already started to take my laptop apart when I found this.... I think the problem is the dc charger connector.... Power out checks ok on the adapter, but gradually the wiggling of the ac adapter connection would not work to power or charge the laptop.... I have ordered a new connector.... but it took a week to get the part... now I'm having a difficult time remembering ho to put it back together.... so I am waching it again and again to see If I can get it back together.... It would be nice if one could watch the video in reverse (LOL!!!!) or have a reassemble video..... Hope I will get it back together soon.... Thanks again!!!

[@regazzz]

Hello, I can imagine how difficult it can be to reassemble a laptop without a video in a week or so. I hope you will be able to put your laptop back together!

[@blayneoverman9654]

regazzz Hello! I am replying to you on that laptop.... The only real problem was the black and white wires (Antenna wires?) connected... I was able to find another video that showed the connection on the back of the laptop. I worked for 25 years as an electronic technician many years ago... Take care.

[@regazzz]

You are welcome!

[@alexaxel8635]

Hi there, very helpful video. I have an issue with the backlight I guess: after a 5 years of working the display starts to appearing in red color after sleep or when it turns on, and then more and more red, and after a day it does not turning on absolutely. The display is working, it can be seen by using a flashlight. So what should it be changed and is there a possibility to fix/replace part at home, or get a deal with service?! Thanks

[@cyberp0et]

I have a similar problem I will check the connector first, then if need be a baclkight from another laptop (Sony Vaio). Otherwise use it with an external monitor. 9 years later maybe you still have it :p

[@regazzz]

Hello, sorry for such a late repsonse, The hardest part is actually take it apart and than put it back together. to replace an actual CPU

[@psaroppouli]

Hello, nice video !!! I want to ask you, Where is the "Graphic Card"?...can i replace it or not ?

[@regazzz]

Hello, GPU is not replaceable.

[@psaroppouli]

thanks for the answer !

[@regazzz]

You are welcome!

[@regazzz]

if it is turns on for a few seconds, I don't think it is overheating, did you applied a new cooling compound after cleaning?

[@jcxz100]

Andrew Rhee - There isn't any cmos reset jumper. I was having the same problem, then I ordered a new bios chip preprogrammed with 1.45 version. It made my computer come alive again... almost. But now I think I've fried the GPU (graphics chip), because it won't show anything on-screen. The replacement procedure was pretty involved, as the chip had to be soldered in, so not for everyone!

[@regazzz]

Lasse Steen Bohnstedt nice work!

[@jcxz100]

regazzz Yeah, I'm *almost* proud of myself :-P Would be better though if it actually finished the post process.... Why I think it's the GPU: If I leave in the RAM it will hang, black screen; I can't even shut it down, have to pull out the battery. If I take out the RAM it will still hang with nothing on screen, but at least then I can shut it down by holding down the power button. The RAM block works fine in another pc btw. The GPU is shared RAM type (uses part of the same as the rest of the system... only explaining this for if others read along ;-) ).

[@regazzz]

Lasse Steen Bohnstedt Thanks for explanation. With a new comment system I am a little lost and don't really know what will happen with all that comments people have posted prior G+ integration...

[@ramiz1116]

hay man can you show how to remove and install new pair of speakers in acer 5315. thanks

[@regazzz]

Most likely something wrong with LCD. Try on an external monitor and if there will be lines means something also wrong with gpu. If no lines on external - than bad lcd. Change lcd.

[@regazzz]

Thanks!

[@regazzz]

Thanks for comment! There is no other way to reach dc jack. Hope you will fix your laptop!

[@stefanluk1]

hi.i want to ask you what is the name of the final piece from the display.the piece that at the end of video.i have a problem with that,from time to time my screen turns black (more black with withe vertical strikes)but when i remove the wire and put all toghether,everything is fine.

[@slace2k]

I need to replace the keyboard. Do I need to disassemble the bottom or can I just take the top apart?

[@Riste17]

can you make a video how to replace the 1.8 celeron with core 2 duo?

[@regazzz]

Do you know that you can change a resolution of this video? You may try that, if not than I will try to help you, just tell me what part of the video are you talking about. :)

[@audiquattro7086]

I put everithing back together and now i have 7 screws left.......

[@cyberp0et]

Tip: Take video while disassemble it and put the screws in separate places with label on.

[@regazzz]

Hi, yes, it is more likely LCD.

[@DaRush-The_Soviet_Gamer]

Hi could you tell me what was that small removable chip next to the cpu with 2 wires attached?. Also is it possible to upgrade the gpu to something better and lastly what cpus can i upgrade to prefferably dual core or more. :-)

[@regazzz]

yes, it is hard drive, just delete everything, you don't have to physically destroy it.

[@regazzz]

You are welcome! :)

[@fabianlupidi]

Is there a simpler method to change the power jack? Is is nessesary to disemble ALL the laptop? Thanks.

[@TheBun92]

Hi. Does replacing the DC power jack require soldering? Try.

[@cyberp0et]

9 years later reply: No. The DC jack is connected to the motherboard via a 5 pin connector.

[@armgo]

Hi, where is attach the white cable from the monitor?

[@TheBun92]

Hi. Does replacing the DC power jack require soldering or does it just clip in? Thanks.

[@cyberp0et]

There is a connector on the motherboard that connects the DC jack to the motherboard, but you need to completely disassemble the laptop in order to get access to it, since it is hidden. I had to improvize with mine, since it was missing (who used it must have broken it and conneced the adapter wires direcly to that connector. I managed to put one DC jack from a projector, though slightly larger, I crammed it in there(melted the plastic tabs inside to make room for it) and it works. So it is easily detachable and replaceable. Hopefully after 9 years you still have it :p

[@Cientenn]

great vid

[@regazzz]

Thank you!!!

[@Rythumz]

does this laptop still have an upgrade for the mother board ?

[@mgstudiosthemastergamer5102]

I reassembled everything, except for the keyboard. I can't seem to put it back on. I can't connect the wire/ whatever it is. Help?

[@ronaldo27y]

would i have to do all of this just to replace the charge port ?

[@regazzz]

Yes

[@jorgekck.c.841]

You're welcome!

[@jablondyn]

Hey I've got this problem maybe you know whats going on.. The same model, when I turn it on power light is on and nothing else id happening. I can't even turn it off holding power button for >5 sec. Is there anything I can check or do?

[@regazzz]

Check different memory first.

[@andrewrhee5274]

hi, I wanna ask a question. where is motherboard jumper? when I was updating BIOS in Aspire 5315, my laptop was suddenly shut down and dead. how can I revive this? Although I tried to find jumper to format CMOS, I could't find it on main board. where is jumper on motherboard? Please, help me.

[@theodoredodos9208]

No and I just got a new charger.
