You should open Repair shop or something else, your patience is on another level, you have much experience so I suggest you to do it

just a tip if you need to fix chipped or broken plastics. Use some clay and superglue to fill in the hole and it will fix the problem for good.

[@dalmdalm1404]

Thank you for uploading this video, because Dell Inspiron N5110 is the first laptop I have when attending college. It's a friend that goes with me almost all of my youth time.

the n5110 is a similar laptop to mine (n411z)

I have been using this laptop since 2012! Upgrade the HDD to SSD and 8GB RAM! I have left Windows 7 and on another partition installed Windows 10! At the beginning WIN 10 was not working properly, but after years of updates now is working like a charm! I am going to bay a new laptop next year in 2023, still waiting for DDR 5 RAM price go down, and that CPUs prices of Intel 12 gen and AMD be more reasonable! I like your channel, I heve been doing repares more then 30 years back. All the best and stay safe!

would have liked to have seen how you diagnosed what was faulty in the laptop and then how you replaced the MOSFET.

THANK YOU FOR MAKING A VIDEO ABOUT THIS LAPTOP. It's such an underrated machine.

Great job. I've never done an N5110, but I have done several slightly older machines, Dell Inspiron 1545s and an Inspiron 1764. The 1545 can have almost everything upgraded, but the T9900 is the best CPU it can handle. Glad you were able to get that oldie running again.👍

[@ErickBuildsStuff]

@Cat and Andrew this is my first laptop in 2014 passed on from my brother. He bought it in 2011 and did his bachelor thesis, I did mine, and my dad still uses it daily for Streaming in 2K. It runs Win10 and Ubuntu on SSD. He did upgrade the ram to 12gb but still uses i3 processor. Even though we have high gaming setups, all of us like the DELL n5110. It's a sentiment and every year along with all devices, it gets a cleaning and new thermal paste. In fact the only machine that still has a DVD RW drive at my home. It's now 11 years old i think.

[@6891s]

i also has one but with an i5 and a smaller keyboard it belongs to my parents but they haven’t use it since 2016 i think and just left it in the dust until i found it again at 2018 non functioning ever since then it’s has a hard time cuz my brother like to punch the laptop screen and it’s now on my desk collecting dust cuz my brother switch over to a better laptop it’s great that your laptop is being take care of unlike mine😅

I have a hp g6 with an i3 and i love it since it was my first fully functional computer so i believe i feel the same way as you

I recently restored a similar Inspiron N5050. Just upgraded RAM from 6gb to 8gb (with what I had around) and, despite not upgrading the HDD to a SSD it's still snappy for regular, non-intensive use. Word of caution, updating to latest BIOS is a must if planning on installing Windows 10. If you get it without a boot drive or with a wiped one (as was my case), install either Windows 7 or 8, update BIOS and then install Windows 10

[@adityaanand9683]

I have same model Upgraded to win 10 without any problem

[@izzathakimiahmadariza5741]

another great job by Andrew, well done! I would like to ask on how you found out the damaged components on motherboard causing the windows turn off immediately. I do have one with the same problem, already sent to many technicians but they were not able to fix it

Hi bro, I'm using just usual things like multimeter, noting special, I check the value of the components, first I have repaired the power and then the resto of the motherboard

10:15 Here at least i could manage to get windows 10 activated with a 7 key. Unfortunately, for me, it is not shown how to reconnect the flex cables, i could not manage, without some serious, modifying of the cables, and cutting aluminium part inside to bits, that project still in the works, so not sure about the outcome, though i am pretty positive. And this laptop's cpu upgradable, did not cross my mind even that a possibility, i just may do the same, not sure, but nice to know the option is there, knew there was some use in watching these video's.

[@TheSpotify95]

Glad to hear that you got it back up and running, though I don't like what Dell have done here. Why should you have to remove the display and motherboard in order to change the hard drive? Also Windows 7 would have been the OS that came with the machine. Windows 10 would work perfectly fine, and is still supported, but Windows 7 is still a good OS and can run some programs that Windows 10 can't.
