When you go to fix it, make sure you have the the proper size screw driver of decent quality. Some of the screw's are a bugger to loosen and it's easy to break other bits when trying.

Thanks but I have decent toolkit bought a few years ago, expensive but worth every penny

I would buy online but want one quickly, my youngest is moaning all day about it

Part available on amazon, you will need to parcel motel it as they don't deliver to Ireland.

Previous thread on this issue here, includes videos and a link to get the part directly from a Asus supplier.

The Digital Services Act 2024 [EU] ~ Social Media and You ~ Nanny State guidance for parental monitoring of apps ~ Censorship: - broad laws that will probably effect Adult use of same.
