Had exact same piece break inside charger hole, get a replacement piece for 10 then bit more for delivery. Either Intel/Dell locked undervolting after a BIOS update which ment battery life became rubbish and unusable for light gaming cause it would start to throttle. Tried repasting CPU to see if helped....negligible. This laptop got zero love from Dell in terms on long-term life i feel like it has amazing hardware I just can't even make the most of now only 4-5 years on. So I'm looking at this vid to covert it to a linux machine. Might replace the battery to get it back to decent levels for working outside home. I'm tempted by a new Mac M1 based laptop purely cause the amazing battery life. If there was something linux based with same battery life i'd be seriously interested. Nice video, subbed.

Hi John, I have the exact same laptop and I wonder if you ever faced Bios issues with this setup where the TPM module is not detected after upgrading your bios to 1.16 onwards?

I've checked the BIOS, I'm on version 1.28. Under the TPM settings, TPM is ON and Enabled and I have no errors in the logs. However, bear in mind I'm using Fedora Linux not Windows, so this will be a bigger problem under Windows if you have a TPM problem than under Linux.

No, that is the original power supply that came with laptop. I'm not sure if it's a bigger power supply to cope with the bigger battery that was specified?

On my model the only problem I had was the bezel leaving by 1-2mm off of the chassis when its facing downwards (gravitational pull) otherwise works fine and rubbish battery life( 6-7 hours)

Same thing happened to my power plug. Got a new one of aliexpress for not too much money.

It wasn't much money, but on a £1500-1700 laptop, I feel it's not something so inexpensive that should fail ...
