hello, im a total beginner when its about technical details involving soldering and multimetering the little components on the mainboard. but while googling i found this forum and think its a great spot to might get an answer to my problem.
today i opened my laptop due to a faulty keyboard to check if there are loose connectors or something. during this i also cleaned dust, reapplied thermal paste and such, but then a terrible thing happend.
i dropped the screwdriver on top of a mb component, which broke its head off.
on the original picture i bought from this forum, its the black thing with "000" written on it. i marked it with a white shadow.
now before ordering a new keyboard for 100 bucks, i wonder how bad is that damage and what i actually damaged. because if the problem cant be fixed easy, i won't spend 350 bucks for a replacement board, nor the new keyboard.
thanks in advance
