About

The Gateway NV54 is a laptop in the NV Series.

There are no instructions online for disassembly. It has at least two ribbon cable connectors (indicator panel and touchpad) which seem to have been designed to require use of a special tool. It is possible to put them back together using regular tools and sticky tape such that the indicators and touchpad will work, but it's not clear how reliable this is.
