Introdução

The GPU board is home to an Nvidia N16S-LG custom GeForce GPU with 1 GB of VRAM. This is the major connections component of the keyboard; it hooks everything together and makes it all work. This guide will require the removal of the SD card slot and USB ports. Make sure you have a place to store all the tiny screws you will be removing.

    You should feel slight resistance when pressing against the internal lever arm. If you don’t feel the resistance after about half an inch, back out and try again. Be careful not to push the paper clip too far, as it can scratch the screen bezel from the inside, leaving a visible mark.

    This doesn't work on mine... there's a 90° metal support bracket that covers the entire corner (goes up to about the 8-9th hole on the side) and blocks any & all access to the screen release mechanism. After seeing this "solution" online so many times, I never understood how this worked for anyone else...

    I could detach mine following these instructions. When inserting the paper clip you will feel a resistance like pushing a spring. In my case, pushing the paper clip in about 5 millimeters and holding it when I hear a "click" sound. Be sure to grab the tablet when you see it separating (or have at hand a plastic spudger or opening pick to avoid snapping into place again due to the very strong magnets present).

    Bonjour,

    J’ai suivit les indications telles qu’elles et cela fonctionne parfaitement !

    Appuis de « haut vers le bas avec angle de 45deg) comme expliqué.

    Merci pour l’astuce. Cela ma permis de me rendre compte que la batterie derrière l’écran n’était pas hs. Apparemment un problème de connexion « clavier-tablette ».

    • The magnetic connections are prone to snap back into place, so hold the two halves apart.

    • With one side detached, pull firmly to pivot the display out to disconnect the second side.

    • If the magnetic connection feels extra strong and the display won't detach on the second side, keep the detached side separated with a spudger, pen, or pencil, and repeat the paper clip process on the other side of the display.

  9. Microsoft Surface Book Keyboard GPU Board Replacement, Back Panel: passo 8, imagem 1 %32

    • Flip the keyboard over so you can see the back panel.

    Editar

    In this photo, there is a clear crevice around the edge of the panel and the keyboard. On my Surface Book, there is no such crevice. The panel is flush up to the keyboard with a gap that looks to be maybe 0.2mm max. There is no way to fit a tool into the crevice to lift off the panel. Any tips?

    • Insert the plastic opening tool in the crevice between the panel and the keyboard.

    • Apply some pressure and lift up so that the back panel is pried away from the keyboard.

    • The panel is glued down on the inside so this may require some force to lift away the panel.

    • Continue to lift until the panel is completely separated from the keyboard.

    • The panel is still attached to the keyboard by a ribbon cable so only lift the panel a few inches.

Where can I buy a replacement gpu board?

where can l find A Replacement gpu board?

Ted Balderas - Responder

Is there some space to put screw nuts inside the base?

It would make sense to put some and drill holes in back panel to make further teardowns easier, e.g. to clean the dust on a regular basis.
