ACER Nitro 5 laptop repair fail

The Acer Nitro 5 is a budget gaming laptop. This model was just around 4 years old. This computer was hit with two problems: the computer does not turn on and the screen hinge was broken.

Open the laptop by removing the bottom of the computer. It had many small screws that I had to remove.

I did not manage the laptop to boot with any easy tips. A repair shop looked at it, but did not get it to boot as well. The problem was not in battery (did not start without battery). The end result was that that motherboard was broken (which means too expensive to be worth to fix).

Because computer could not be made to work, it was not worth to try this hinge repair tip (which I would have done if the computer would boot):
