The screen on this Dell Latitude D410 will not hold itself up any longer. It just flops all the way back.

many can be easily tightened with just

the exposed screws on the back of the unit, others require the removal of

the hinge covers or back panel to tighten all the screws... and if you have

waited too long and some screws have gone missing then replacements can be

purchased. you can look up how your model is assembled by reading the

service manual found on support.dell.com.

step 1locate screws and determen if they are the sorse of the problem
if
you have an dell inspiron e1505 the 4 screws are on the back next to
the fan intake/exhaust vent and next to the charger hole these two
should be under little stickers, …

Make
sure you have tightened the screws under the display bezel and hinge
cover. You do not need to disconnect the display from the laptop. Just
remove the bezel by carefully removing the rubber bumpers that cover
the screws, they will remain sticky so you can replace them when your
are done. Then remove the screws and carefully pry the bezel off. It
helps to use your finger nail and carefully push the screen edge of the
bezel away towards the edge of the laptop while lifting up. Once off
you will find the hinge screws.

Now you need to tighten the
bottom half the hinge screws. There is an indentation of the left side
of the hinge cover (where the power button is) that you can use a screw
driver to pry it up. Then tighten those hinge screws.

If tightening the screws does not fix the problem then your hinges are worn and will need to be replaced.
