I've tried to focus more on editing and showing processes in more detail in this video - along with voicing over whilst editing as opposed to during recording. Let me know if you like this approach and I'll continue to do it in future.

Hello, I know this is a stupid question to ask but I just want to confirm if the cause of a failed hinge mounting is the repeated opening and closing of the laptop?

[@BrueComputing]

Its a failure of the plastic around the metal inserts in the palmrest - it can be fatigued due to the repeated opening and closing of the laptop, or often it can be down to the laptop being knocked or dropped, lid forced open beyond its maximum, etc.

Thank you very much. Your video is absolutely useful, it permitted me to reblace the HP 14CK 14-CM 14-DG Palmrest w/ Keyboard Touchpad. Thank you very much.

Excellent! Really glad it was helpful.

Excellent video! Very helpful!

Thanks for this but important to say that my loose hinge was totally fixed by just screwing obviously loose screws back in. I appreciate this is a replacement demo but guessing some failure is similar to my issue. Damian

Glad it was at least somewhat helpful.

That's asking me to buy about £1200 of laptops - I'd never see a return on investment.
