Sehr gute Übersicht, Danke für die Links zu den Ersatzteilen! Das macht das Video besonders wertvoll!

[@CrocFIX]

Das freut mich aber sehr. Nichts zu danken. Ich werde in der Zukunft noch mehr Videos machen. Ich hoffe, du abonnierst mein Kanal :) 💚

My Ideapad 3 suddenly shut down and would not respond to the start.button. Completely dead. I opened it up after watching this video, unplugged and plugged in the battery and it came back to life. It may have been a poor battery connection but I doubt it, since all looked correct and even plugged into the power supply it was dead. I think briefly removing battery power brought it back to life. My heartfelt thanks for posting this video.

[@CrocFIX]

You are very welcome. Sometimes the laptops go to a weird state...it helps if you unplug the power supply and press and hold the power button for 1 minute, then release it and wait couple of seconds and power on again. Sometimes also the electronic part on the battery starts acting weird and you need to replace the battery. Sometimes just disconnecting the battery and reconnecting again helps.

Very helpful demonstration just what I was looking for

[@CrocFIX]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your feedback

Hi! If I have 8GB ram configuration, is the Dimm slot occupied or not? I heard that this laptop has soldered 8GB of ram. So I want to know, if i want 16gigs, do i need to buy only 8GB ram or 16?

[@CrocFIX]

Yes, ussually 1x ram is soldered. So you need to buy one ram stick of 8Gb and you will have 16Gb in total. Hope that helps and for your support. Please Like the video & Subscribe ❤🙌

Why does it have a space for a 2.5 ssd when there's no connection for it? If it connects through a small ribbon cable, where can that be found? Thanks for the video

[@CrocFIX]

You are very welcome. I have inserted a link in this video description, where you can order the SSD cable. Thanks for the comment and hope you Subscribe and join the CrocFIX channel family :) ❤️

Hello! Do you know if the the laptop will support an additional 32gb of ram like what is listed in the links you provided?

[@CrocFIX]

Hey, yes you can install a 32Gb module on this model. (17ABA7)

[@TTien63]

Can you make a tutorial about how to attach an additional hard drive? 512GB isnt enoigh for me

[@CrocFIX]

You can see in the video how to replace the NVME ssd. Just swap the 512Gb with 1Tb or 2Tb. That's the best option. SSDs you can find cheap in my links in the video description.

[@TTien63]

@@CrocFIX i meant like, add additional drive, not replace the current one

[@CrocFIX]

@@TTien63 I know. I just wanted to give a fast solution. For an additional drive, you will need an extra adapter, cable and brackets.

[@pablodeleeuw8191]

do you know how to start de nvme as a main drive? , I have tried that but wasnt able to

[@CrocFIX]

You have to change the settings in your bios.

[@yw1971]

This model has 2 versions - with 38Wh battery that include SATA port inside (as in the video), and other with 45Wh has no SATA, but maybe a dual NVME.

[@CrocFIX]

Thanks for sharing this information

[@Ken_G.]

I just replaced the RAM in mine today after watching this. In the model I have, 17 RU7, it went sticker side down. I don't know if they installed the carriage upside down or what, but that's what I had.

[@CrocFIX]

But it's working?

[@Ken_G.]

@@CrocFIX Yep, should have mentioned that I guess.

[@christiancalinciuc9371]

Do I need to activate, something from setings ??

[@CrocFIX]

Why?

[@dsdffdfgggfgg]

i don't know if i am the only one who has this problem, but when i play fortnite on this laptop it gets like 150 fps constantly then after playing it for 5 minutes or more, it drops to 40 and it is a stuttering mess, on minecraft it doesn't do that, i changed the tpu and still doesn't solve my problem, any ideas how to fix this? i can't find any solutions

[@CrocFIX]

How old is your laptop? Have you cleaned the fans and changed the Thermal Paste? Look at your temperatures while playing and let me know.

[@sourclippedu]

can you change the graphics card?

[@CrocFIX]

No

[@MemeJooce]

Help! My keyboard isn’t pushed out fully anymore

[@CrocFIX]

Sorry, I don't know what you mean?

[@MemeJooce]

@@CrocFIX the trackpad sorry, I can’t push down the corners any more, it’ll tap but clicking doesn’t work
