then i found this http://forum.notebookreview.com/archive/index.php/t-86297.html
sso now i can repair her all by my self...
as the link would suggest and tell me that;
" i got fed up with the ultra loose hinge that i decided to do something about them. For the past couple of weeks I tried to tighten the screws under the hinge cover, but it only helped marginally. I could see that the hinge was actually loose in its joint with the LCD (rather than hinge <--> body joint being loose) so i used the a8jm disassembly guide to help me locate the right screws to tighten.
So in order to tighten the joint between LCD and the metal hinge (the cylinder looking thing) you first have to pry out the LCD bezel cover(this requires your fingernails a lot. start from top and look at the whole LCD cover from the side. prying open from the outside seemed a lot easier than trying to open it from the inside like the guide told me to). Before that, you have to take the 6 rubber things off and unscrew the screws beneath those.
Then you'll see something like this
you can see that there are two screws holding down the LCD part to the hinges, and one screw (the one that's under the hinge cover) holding the hinge down to the body. I found that my two screws were quite loose. After I tightened them, the LCD hinge was loose no more. It actually almost felt like the thinkpad hinges (my fav.)
if you're up to it, tighten any other screws you see after you take out the bezel.
One thing I noticed was how weak the plastic part that holds the hinge to the body was. Mine was pretty much broken down so much you could see the part that holds the screw. Later, it became worse and the washer (?) part actually fell out. you can see the damage here:
