Replacing the GPD WIN MAX 2 SSD, Right Trigger and Battery

Please first try updating the AMD Graphics drivers to the latest version, you will also be able to update the general AMD chipset drivers which you should do. Some earlier versions of drivers had an issue where the battery would not display. The newer and latest versions will fix this.
