HP Recommended
Product: HP Spectre x360 Convertible 15-ch0xx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My Spectre x360 (latptop/tablet convertible), is docked nearly full time at my home.  I moved it off my laptop tray and noticed that the bottom panel has started to bulge and the side edges will no longer stay snapped in place. there is a 1/8" (3mm) gap on both sides. 

Separately,  and much more recently, the spacebar key does not work correctly.  It only works when hit firmly in the center.  it will not work when pressed elsewhere.  I read that this may be a hardware issue, and I have installed all the latest windows updates and BIOS drivers.  Nothing has corrected the issue.  I don't know what else to do. 

This machine is probably past warrranty, but I'd like it to remain usable.  The spacebar issue is huge. 

I don't know what issues may be arising from the bottom panel (battery overheating) issue ??

 

Thanks in advance for any help.
