So i have a Gateway P-7805u FX.
This at the time it was bought was up there with alienware computers but way cheaper.
It's been about 3 years since I got this computer and well... to be frank it looks like crap after dropping it 10+ times.
So here's the deal. I want to get this fixed for under 300$ and it shall cost me 150$ roughly for time alone.
We here's the request. I am personally trying to find parts to make this as cheep as i can and it's not going really well. Anyways i would like some help searching places for this laptop or parts.
What i need in Computer tech speak. (or at least what i remember)
New palm bored.
new silicone?(Ya um this might be wrong)
Hinges Cover.
fans(might need)
What i think i need.
palm bored!
Hinges Cover.
Bottom casing.
maybe CD drive.
fans.
LCD screen (Just 10 pixels are gone which in the grant scheme of things isn't much)
And really thats all i can remember.
Now while yes i am trying to save a buck where ever i can i would much rather but another complete computer and either replace my parts like hard drive as the shell or strip it down so long as it's 300$ or less. But even so i'm not sure i want to buy or even can buy a 300$ computer. I did find it on Ebay though for about as much as i'm willing to pay.
I've check Ebay and the prices are about the same as the shop guys said for parts that i saw.
Does anyone know any websites that might help me in my search?
