The laptop is a HP note book

Give it a bloody good jiggle back towards where it should be sat - it won't come out any further, it's like a stuck drawer that's stuck due to the angle it's sat at. Thump if necessary.

@spoonblender. I was
worried that some come on here is a dead technicals explanation as to what I should have to do like remove port A and insert the grommets in to port 0.9

But you come along with the fantastic jiggle it a bit and give it a thump it worked perfectly with a gentle thump .
thank very much 👍👍

This is my bread and butter - did laptop/desktop support for years before getting into management :)
Percussive maintenance is a very large part of my toolkit - printers particularly! And confidence. They can smell fear.
