A BULGE in my Toshiba notebook!

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
This is strange, but I have noticed some problems with the casing on my new M45-S355 satellite. I've only had it for about a week. The lower right corner at one point "popped up" and had to be snapped into place. No problem. Then today I noticed a significant "bulge" beneath the case piece above the keyboard (Near the left speaker). It isn't significant enought to cause problems when closing the laptop, but it's still kind of obnoxious. It feels as if something is snapped out of place, or like something moved and got lodged thus propping up the case. When I look from the side, I can see noticeable bending of this upper piece which doesn't seem good to me. I applied a good ammount of pressure to the spot that seems to be the most "bulged, but to no avail.

Has anyone had any similar encounter with a Toshiba?

Also, what would you suggest I do? I don't know if opening up the actual notebook (to see what's going on under there) would be wise or not, or if I should consider seeking an exchange from bestbuy (the notebook is otherwise fine, besides one dead pixel).

Any suggestions?

Do you think they'll exchange it at a Washington BestBuy? I bought it while in Oregon (No sales Tax).

i think they might as long as you can prove you bought it at bestbuy but i think you should check with them before assuming they will.

You can exchange at any Best Buy in the U.S., but you'll need your receipt.
