    Compaq presario r3000 sound card

    Problem sorted, I found this solution and its working now, a bit fiddly to get the washers in but worth it... The sound board is connected to the mainboard by a connector and contra-connector, both soldered to their boards.. If you want to do it right, you will have to remove several screws...

    Compaq presario r3000 sound card

    Hi mate, thanks for the reply, I do know quite a lot about PC's and Laptops and i've read somewhere how to do a temp fix which i've already tried to no avail, I just wondered if someone else had this problem and had worked out how to fix it, it cant be much as it doesnt take much pressure...

    Compaq presario r3000 sound card

    Hi can anyone help, the sound on my presario r3000 only works when i squeeze the laptop at the bottom corner near the volume control buttons, i guess it might be a loose contact, but any advice how i could solve this problem would be appreciated. Thanks Steve
