Hello,

 

The right hinge on my HP 17.3 laptop seems to have broken spontaneously and I'm having a lot of difficulty when it comes to opening and closing the computer.  This notebook is used daily - but it has never been dropped, so I'm a little perplexed. Has anyone had any success with trying to get this fixed any insight why this would have happened in the first place? 

Thanks!
