I have an HP ProBook. The laptop accidentally slipped from my hand, causing the screen to break. I had it replaced, but the replacement screen is not original. Unfortunately, the laptop's body and screen have been damaged again. There is also a hardware issue, and the locking mechanism is broken once more.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @intelinova,
I'm sorry to hear about the repeated physical damage to your HP ProBook.
Since the laptop has damage to the screen, body, and locking mechanism, along with another hardware issue, I recommend having it inspected by an authorized HP Service Center.
A technician will need to physically examine the laptop to identify the damaged components and determine the appropriate repair or replacement options.
You can locate your nearest authorized HP Service Center here:
Please avoid repeatedly opening and closing the laptop, as this could cause further damage.
