I tried calling Acer in Colombia and I was hung up on once after I was told the part was called a rubber band. I was also told I had to pay to send the computer to Texas for them to get the part. Im still waiting on an email they said would take a day to generate. Has anyone had this issue.? At this point Id be willing to purchase this little tiny piece if I could just get a proper name for it but no one at "Acer" will help.

This makes the computer wobble when i type as the computer does not sit flush.

    I looked at the two photos. But not sure what part and hole that you're referring to. If you're referring to the red encircled area shown below, it appears to be a broken screen lid hinge. The part nos involved are shown below. Google search the part nos for vendors who'd ship to your location.

    There is no part no. for this rubber bumper or furriture pad since it usually is simply glued on to the PC frame. I suggest that you visit a local hardware store for self-stick furniture pads that can be cut to size with a scissors that will serve the purpose of levelling the PC.

    Thank you but Its not the rubber bumper. I have all four of those. The two pictures i uploaded show the part and the hole on the other side where the part fell out.

    They sell the plastic cover for the hinges that Jack shows, but the rubber piece isn't available separately from the cover.
