HP Pavillion x2
Microsoft Windows 8 (64-bit)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit) 

I have a detachable HP Pavillion x2.  I accidently dropped it when it was open and it detached on the floor.  When I picked it up, I noticed that there were 2 magnets stuck to the keybord, but I couldn't figure out where they came from.  I noticed when I picked it up off the floor detached, that the sides of screen were a little loose, so I had to pinch them closed a little, so I'm wondering if that's where the magnets came from? 

 

I'm able to reattach my screen to the keyboard, but it when I close it, the screen will slide off, so I'm assuming that's what the magnets are for, to keep the screen from sliding off, but I cannot figure out where they go.  I am still able to use my laptop, but I have to be very careful when putting it away as it can slide off of the base very easily when closed and I don't want to drop it again.  Can anyone help me to figure out where they go?   Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!  Aloha!
