Diagnosis

If you have a broken XO and need to figure out what the problem is, start here.

  • If your laptop won't get to the point where Sugar boots, or if you think the problem is with the physical machine rather than the software, see Hardware diagnosis.
  • If the problem occurs when Sugar or an Activity is running, or you think the problem is in software, see Software diagnosis.


Support

A number of volunteer-run support efforts are available.

Repair centers

Do you want to find a community repair center near you with tools and volunteers dedicated to fixing XOs? Do you want to send your laptop to a repair center for fixing? Do you want to start a repair center of your own?


Disassembly

If you know what part is broken and just need to learn how to take your XO apart to get to it, check out the Disassembly tutorials.
