What is this, and how much will it cost me to fix
I was doing some repair work (installing a new CPU fan) and it was all going really well, I got everything installed and connected up and when I went to reconnect the battery (laptop) I was using a screwdriver to jimmy it back into place and it slipped and broke one of these little things, there was a small spark and a teeny weeny bit of smoke and that was it, I doubt its genuinely damaged the motherboard its just this one component that needs to be replaced but idk if they are normal stock at your average laptop repair centre and how much it'd take to replace since its pretty tiny stuff
