If you still have the manual or know the manufacturer you might want to try giving them a call. They'll know what size screw was used on that model tv stand. Otherwise, measure the insides of the holes and go to a hardware store; they should be able to help you find the right one. Just make sure they are not too long. Screws are pretty cheap, so I'd suggest buying one of a couple different sizes to try out. They should fit snugly in the hole, but should not split the wood/plastic. You'll want to get four of the same size washers and nuts as well once you know what kind of screw you need. That way they won't loosen. :)
This is a pretty easy job.U have the four Philip screws that came with the tv base stand wright?U have a Phillip screw driver wright?Just put the base stand into the tv make sure all the screws holes lines up between the tv and the base stand holes.Than just tighten the Phillip screws with the Philip screws driver,than u are done.
If the set size match the size of the bracket it should have fit, I would look on back for a screw that is already in set and see if it fit the holes you need, if so then you can use them if you have atleast four, if not then take that screw to a local store and match it up.
Tools Needed
Fine Phillips screwdrivers, two sizes; a fine flathead
screwdriver; a big heavy-duty set of locking pliers to get a grip on the
barrel of the fine screwdrivers in two instances; screen wipes; a clean
working surface in which you won't lose any screws.
Lesson Learned
The method I should have used:
Shut down the computer.
Unplug AC power cable.
Use the sliding tab to remove the battery.
Close the LCD screen as best as you can. Flip the laptop upside down.
Look along the left and right edges, close to the LCD hinges, for a screw on
each side; mine were marked F10. Remove these two screws, which look fairly
insubstantial.
Flip the laptop back over, as if you were going to be using it. Open the
screen fully (180 degrees) so it's pointing up at your ceiling.
Spin the laptop around such that the right side is just off the edge of
the table. There's a big plastic piece, actually two colors, occupying the
last 2 1/2 inches (60 cm) of the laptop toward the hinges; mine has a small
microphone hole near one end and a line of buttons for power, Web browser,
etc.
Use your thumb from underneath to pry off the edge; the whole piece will
begin to lift up. Work it out, being careful to note the two big
semi-circular pieces that have to lip up around the laptop hinges. Set this
piece carefully aside, and be nice to it -- it has a number of buttons.
You should be seeing a small green circuit board where all your buttons
were. A single Phillips screw is in the middle; remove a surprisingly long
screw and set it aside. GENTLY remove the green circuit board, by lifting up
slowly from the right; a small silver plastic tab will keep the board from
lifting up directly on the left.
Underneath, you should now see a relatively heavy wire with a connector
coming from the left LCD hinge. Use the flathead screw driver to gently pry
up one edge of the connector slightly, then the other edge. Pry a couple
more times until it seems loose, then lift up by the cable.
Your LCD is now held by just one small wire bundle and whatever's left of
your hinges. Go after the wire first.
Just above your keyboard, you should see two Phillips screws that
actually hold the keyboard in. Remove this -- and don't be afraid, because
they're very stubborn. I had to use the small Phillips screwdrivers and a
locking wrench clamped on them to get enough of a grip to loosen these. Keep
pushing down so you don't strip the screws. This was the hardest part of
disassembly for me. Set the screws aside.
The keyboard slides up -- not in the sense of toward your face, but
toward the laptop hinges. Slide it a short distance and you can then flip it
upside down.
Follow that last wire coming from your LCD, which routes under the
keyboard. On the 4652lmi (lets hope your model is somewhat similar), it's
the wireless antenna. Two connectors hold it to the card; they pry up, but
not particularly easily. Note which side goes to which; the white wire (aux)
was on the right for mine.
When the connectors are loose, unroute the wire, freeing it up to the
hinges.
This is probably a good time to slide the keyboard back into place and
turn the screws a couple of times.
You should now have the LCD free, except for the remaining hinges
themselves.
At the extreme edges of the corners, you'll see a triangular shaped piece
of metal. That's the base of the hinge; a single screw on each now holds it
in. Remove the screws. Lift the LCD straight up from the main body of the
laptop. (Stuck? You -did- remove those screws from underneath in the first
step, right? I didn't.)
Put the body of the laptop aside. You can now focus entirely on the LCD
package itself.
At the top of the screen are two rubber caps, indented somewhat from the
corners. Use your flat screw driver to scrape these away. No, you can't
really reuse 'em, but at least the screws underneath are black. Leave the
screws in place for a few moments.
Toward the bottom corners of the screen are a couple more covers made of
mylar, like a balloon. Scrape them from the bottom edge with the screw
driver. These you surely can't reuse.
Undo the four Phillips screws that you've now exposed.
Starting at one corner, -gently- slide the flathead screw driver into the
bezel, the giant black plastic ring, around the LCD screen. Start to loosen
the bezel, using fingers, screw drivers and prayer to work it loose without
cracking it. If you get stuck on one direction, go in the other for a time.
Once it's free, the bezel simply lifts straight up. Set it aside, and make
sure you don't put anything on top of it.
Only do one hinge at a time. The hinges run along the edge of the LCD
panel itself and wrap around at the top.
One heavier screw holds on the hinge at the bottom, on the innermost of
two holes in the tab. Remove this screw.
Four smaller screws run along the edges of the hinge. Remove -- being
careful not to slide 'em under the LCD, or drop 'em into your carpet. You
may need to use two screwdrivers or a screwdriver and a thumb to lift them
away from the LCD case.
The hinge should lift directly up. Set it aside, so you can show all your
friends what a wonderful laptop technician you are later.
The new hinge should drop directly in. It won't. It's got to stay very
close to the LCD panel, inside of a number of alignment tabs sticking up
from the edge of the case. At the top of the case, a hole in the hinge part
has to slide onto a small plastic part that sticks up. On the bottom, it has
to slide into position on top of the two screw holes.
Try to put in one of the four side screws. They won't go. Use the small
flathead screwdriver to gently, gently lift the LCD screen very slightly
until you can put in the side screws.
Replace the screw on the bottom tab, with the screw on the inside hole.
Repeat for the other side of the LCD panel.
"Assembly is the reverse of disassembly." Yeah.
General Cautions
Make sure your antenna and LCD wires go through the designated holes near
the hinge openings; don't pinch them when you put the bezel on.
The bezel will snap into place, seemingly by making lots of snapping
noises. It probably won't be snapped into place in the right places. If one
of your four LCD panel cover screws doesn't go in, you probably need to
remove the screw completely and put pressure on the bezel again to re-snap
it.
Remember the lower hinges have to drop down into the base of the laptop.
Secure them with one screw on the top ... and, as your very last step, put
in the less substantial screws from the bottom of the laptop.
The wireless card connectors are tough to put on. If you get them in
position, you can use the back of a fine screwdriver to snap them into
place.
Remember to open your screen 180 degrees before putting on the large
plastic piece with the buttons and lights. Don't force the hinge cover parts
through your wires; that would be, in technical terms, bad.
As the final step, close the laptop, flip it upside down, place the two
remaining hinge screws from underneath.
Hi there, Well, F7 error code occures due to A = Function pad button stuck or B = Bad clock Unstick button or Replace Electronic Range Control (ERC)
Replace the ERC there are ten screws 3 on each side and 4 on the control leave the hex screws alone all you need is a phillip screwdriver. REMEMBER TO SHUT OFF THE POWER FIRST lift and fold out the control panel remove the ribbon cable and remove the four screws that hold the control board . replace control panel in reverse order.
The universal mounts generally have a selection of screws that are to fit different makes and models of tvs. If you bought the appropriate size mount for the size of your TV, there should be mounting holes that match your TV, and screws that will secure it. I have not seen any mounts that use more than four.
