Hi all,
i recently had the luck to buy an HP-71B "nonworking" but only one battery contact is gone (it works well with an AC adaptor!).
i would like to repair it but how do i best open it? I found a lot of screws but these seem to be of a very small hexagonal size...
does anyone know which kind of tool is needed? or any other hints?
thank you in advance
Hi Hugo,
Luiz & Tony have posted a very nice explanation on this topic HERE.
The screws are TX6s : You'll need a Torx 6 screwdriver or a small Allen.
Cheers from France.

Hugo

Oh come on, I found torx screwdriver kits in Greece, surely you
can find a shop in Belgium that stocks such items .
