On the phone with HP as I type this. Support seems willing and able. Just need to confirm the partnumber ordered once I am back out of hold and I’m set, I think.
Got back with me and confirmed partnr M52188-001 ordered. It’s on backorder however, so it’ll take a little longer to get to me. No worries. Happy with the no-nonsense handling of the case by HP.
You should be able to initiate an online live chat with HP customer support via their website. That’s how I did it. Have your serial number handy and be ready to answer a few questions. Hopefully, there are no limitations by region.
