It's just low on HP. Hit it with a hammer a few times to restore some HP. It'll bend back into shape that way.

As someone who repairs these kinds of laptops as part of the studies im doing, i wish i could do this at times, i absolutely despise HP because who the fuck rivets the keyboard into the frame.

u/toomanyscooters 12d ago

Theseus would agree, totally.

u/kingslayerer 11d ago

Of course it is, if you replace everything

Just repaste it and it'll be all good

All it needs is everything replacing, then it will be repaired.
