What to do if you put a magnet to your laptop?

Answer 1

Not really. They arent magnetic. But on some laptops, especially newer ones, the laptop sreen is held closed by magnets so to replace the conventional locking hinge and its slot on the computer so no damage occures on the hinge while also giving it an attractive look.

Actually, if it has speakers they are most certainly magnets and the hard drive also has very strong magnets in it (unless is an SSD). Any electric motor also has magnets and is an electromagnet under power.

Answer 2

Yes, magnets can damage Laptops. In fact, contact with magnets, even if brief, can screw up your laptop in a very bad, fatal way. Avoid contact with magnets at all costs. My small friend attached a couple magnets to my laptop for a tiny period of time for I swiftly knocked him out with a hard punch. The brief attachment of the magnet complete f**cked my laptop; MacBook Pro $2000+

My small friend stayed the next few months in hospital.

Answer 3

Learn from the experience so that when you get a new laptop to replace the one you broke, you don't do the same boneheaded thing.

If the laptop still works, you don't need to do anything.

If it doesn't work, you will probably need to take it to a computer tech and have them fix it. If you're the sort of person who goes around putting magnets next to computers, you're not likely to be able to fix it yourself.
