Please help me fix my laptop

[src]

Heres the story:
Dog chewed power cord, shorted something. Laptop still works but won't charge. I want to open it up to take a look. I have unscrewed all the visible screws but it still won't open. The laptop is a Compaq Satellite 3005-s304 if it matters...
Something at the hinge where the lcd meets the rest of the case seems to be holding it shut, does the lcd come off completely?

Any help/suggestions would be very much appreciated

No, it's not. And besides you are in the wrong forums. Take this to the SHH/laptop forum and page jshuck. Figure out what the hell you got first though.

Hve you placed a meter on the power brick to make sure you have voltage before you plug it into the laptop?
