My Omen laptop has had an issue with its hinge creaking that just seems to get worse over time. I have researched this, and there seems to be a known issue with a hardware design flaw in these laptops. The device is out of warranty, but I;m wondering if anyone has gotten HP to do anything about this issue. I've taken great care of the laptop, but the sound just seems to get worse. I am worried that its eventually going to snap something and make the laptop useless. Really starting to regret buying a laptop from HP if the build quality is this bad.
Is there anything I can do to fix this? Based on my research it seems that this is just a poorly designed laptop, I checked all of the screws and they seem to be tightened down properly. Nothing I do seems to make the creaking get any better.
Thanks
