Hi, as i told you in other topic i would convert a laptop to An Amiga 1200 case.
So i started this weekend.
Laptop is a Dell 630, that a friend gave me. I open it, and remove the board... laptops are not so easy to open... we must be very carefull.
I had a spare A1200 case so... here we go:
Problems so far:
- fan must be placed exactly as it were inside laptop, 2 milimeters out of place and the board shuts down with cooling problems.
- as i get the board out of laptop, i notice it is to big for the A1200 case, i will have to cut a bit of keyboad and metal bellow to get some space, and also have to remove the board battery connector as i will not need it.
- power on button is in the laptop keyboard, how can i remove it from the keyboard???? I guess i can put a switch from the wires...
Here is a big photo of work so far, hope you understand:
