    Well I bought this laptop broken and after i took it apart i found the problem and fxed it. But I bent this metal piece that I think was a heat shield kind of so i took it out and lost it..... :duh: but as i was putting it back together i got it all except this one hinge and that shield must have had the screw holes for it but anyways I need a solution to get this hinge back together. I thought about drilling a hole for it but i looks like the heatsink is in the way. here are the pictures. please help!!

    umm, you could try altho it may not be the best, to bend a peice of semi thick material and tap it, and mount it to the back, or you could just, find the part, honestly how far could it have gone?
