    Source for screw kits?

    I have a laptop that I just finished repairing (after five months..), and now I'm having issues locating a screw kit for it. Previous owner / friend had taken it apart and lost a great number of them.

    Asus wasn't much help- They told me they don't have any contact with their repair centers, and do not sell the screw kit / have a part number for it. A schematic would also help, but I was simply told 'good luck.'

    Anyone know of a place that does all of the above? I've come up with nothing so far, except people telling me to check ebay, which doesn't really help. =P

    This is not that complicated...

    A preliminary eBay search turns this up:
    http://cgi.ebay.com/ASUS-Laptop-K50I...item2a0dadd5a9

    True you have a G50, but the K50 chassis is probably similar enough that most of the screws will be compatible.
    "We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn't have. They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed [sic]. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, 'Save me!' He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."

      It's not similar enough, unfortunately.

      I /did/ look around ebay as stated in the first post, and I didn't find anything close enough. For the specific unit you posted about it's (at least) the different GPU, bottom hatches, etc. That's at least 8 screws right there. There's two different GPU heatsinks for the g50v depending on the options you picked during purchase, so there may be a difference even within that general model number. Hence the search for a schematic of some sort as well. =P

      Thanks though.
