5 year old HP Compaq 6715 b POST more

The lights are on but nobody home...

I had to replace my laptop at the end of the year but annoyingly it's dead.  It would be useful to bring back to life that I'm not sure what to replace it with yet.

He entered mode "sleep" during use, the battery is fully charged.  I turned it on and after 5 minutes or more, the screen went white.  After that it wouldn't start or if it was, the screen was blank and I couldn't tell.

I played with it and got tempting near loading when the screen went white to new windows.

Since then, under the power of the battery, at startup, the led power and muted sound light light up, the drive light flashes and light flashes 8 times before going out.  The power and mute turned on lights but nothing else.

the same thing happens with current alternative, with or without battery installed except the charging light is not at all flash.

I saw the play on Nvidia GPU but mine doesn't have one under the heatsink from the CPU.

I do not think that there is some time the CPU overheated and shut the system down, but it was restarted after cooling.  Would be - this solder CPU came adrift?

I don't mind repair or bust, the data are all on my desktop PC, anyway.  I don't think it's worth spending the money on it unless there is very little.

Both the hand & CMOS batteries are good.

all advice welcome

Thank you

Pete

IMPORTANT UPDATE - IT WORKS AGAIN

Not having all the answers, I browsed the net and found that some HP models suffer from an overheating processor graphics (GPU).  Mine has not been mentioned as being healed in this way

Given that the laptop did not work, I have had no qualms about trying the suggested correction.  I downloaded the service manual that showed me all the necessary measures to dismantle the laptop.

After having stripped the jury for the most part, I covered it with corrugated cardboard covered in foil, leaving only the square footprint of the Commission under the exposed GPU (3 cm square).  I then submitted to 2 minutes exposure under a spotlight 275W placed at 1 cm above the square hole.  I removed the lamp, the vertical pressure and put Council lit the GPU for 1 minute.

I got a digital temp gauge monitor the heat, it's 260C right by the lamp.  The Council needs about 180 c to refresh the welds.

Rebuilt the laptop and it works very well even Windows had no complaints!

Hope this helps someone in the same situation

  • HP compaq 6730 s: windows 10 in my 7 year old HP Compaq 6730 s - should I try it?

    Hello

    I have an old (but surprisingly good job!) 64-bit processor HP Compaq 6730 s, implemented to date with an SSD and 8 GB of ram DDR2 memory. Currently it is dual-boot Windows 7 Home premium, 64-bit edition, pretty well - he gave no problems up to now and Ubuntu 14.04. I'm quite tempted to upgrade to windows 10, but because it's a pretty old computer, I'm not sure of the weather, the material will be fully compatible with w10... and also I don't want to lose my partitions!

    So, what do you recommend me... should I go for it?

    Thank you very much for your help and for creating amazing machines like the 6730 s!

    Hello:

    I have the elitebook 6930p who basically has the same hardware as your model.

    W10 works fine on mine, but I don't have a webcam, nor do I use the fingerprint reader or protect software security tools, so I can't confirm that those who work on W10.

  • My 5 years old Satellite Pro P300-19 q has developed all of a sudden a fault

    Without realizing, I posted the message below on the Forum we Toshiba:

    Hello

    My laptop which is 5 years old and has worked without any problems, has suddenly developed a fault I don't seem to be able to untangle. It starts ok and gets on the screen "Toshiba Leading Technology" and it's not there. Should not or reaction to something. I tried to enter the power on Start menu and pressing the F12 key, it recognizes and says 'Please wait' but nothing happens. It applies to "Configure" button F2 and F8. There is absolutely no response and HDD led light does not illuminate.

    I have not installed or changed anything. It runs Windows 7 and I don't have the recovery disc and the installation CD original W7 but they are useless if I can't access the startup option.

    I also removed the HD and connected by USB connection to my work desk and access all my files and programs, so it doesn't seem to be something wrong with the disc either.

    Can someone offer me some suggestions?

    ___I HAVE HAD THE FOLLOWING RESPONSE_; __

    Looks like you have a corrupted BIOS.

    I recommend asking Toshiba http://pc-support.toshiba-europe.com/ for any help. They got the disc special crisis to retrieve the faulty ROM BIOS module and instructions on how to install it.

    I contacted the technical service of Toshiba UK enclosing the message above but have not heard
    anyone after. Does anyone have information about this recovery disk and where I could get it?

    I also think that the BIOS can be troublemaker in the whole of the situation. When you start your machine, it begins with the verification of low level material and later start to load the operating system preinstalled.
    In your case the laptop is blocked for some reason any on this first step.

    Unfortunately, your options are pretty limited. What you can try is to remove the check and RAM modules and so portable HARD drive will pass this first stage.
    AFAIK the disk of this crisis is for internal use only so I don't know if you will get it somewhere. What you can try is to google a bit and maybe upload it somewhere with specific instructions on its use.

    In the end, I must say that these issues don't occur so often and I have to ask anyway: you may have updated the BIOS or done something that may be responsible for this?

  • Compaq 6715 b - upgrade to 802.11a/b/g/n or/AC

    I understand that I must pay attention to what network adapter I chose for this laptop (Compaq 6715 b, Win7) olde, but I have a nice 802.11ac new router and I would get this box using the pref/AC or less 802.11n.

    The current adapter is reported as PCI\VEN_14E4 & DEV_4312 & SUBSYS_1371103C & REV_02 (Broadcom Wireless 54bg,

    Broadcom wireless 1490 (dell))

    Which, if any, the adapter may seek this gearbox?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello:

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

    http://h20628.www2.HP.com/km-ext/kmcsdirect/emr_na-c02834030-1.PDF

    The only available for your model Wireless N card is the Broadcom adapter of abgn with the reference number used in the country where you live - 441530-001 or 002-441530.  (Chapter 3, p. 29-30).

    You can install a wireless card for your model (not the 6710 (b) and it must have the part number HP on it or it won't work.

    My recommendation is to do a search by the part number HP on eBay and get an opportunity but tested and functional.

    I have apple I pad 4, he is three years old. OS 9.2.1 appliction10, 12.5 GB, available 3.8 GB capacity. It was very fast loading. Recently is seems to take forever. Several minutes.

    Try closing all your apps and force restart the iPad. This will affect all the data.

    Press the Home button twice quickly. You will see small glimpses of your applications recently used. Drag to the left to find the application you want to close. Swipe up on the preview of the application to close. Do this with all applications.

    Force now restart your iPad. To force the reboot your device, press and hold the two buttons of sleep/wake and home for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

    IF this does not help, after the return of more detailed information such as what do you exactly mean by it takes several minutes to load.

    Hello

    What you can try is to upgrade the Rams and do a clean install of the OS, after you make a backup, but because the unit is old, it is normal to slow down.

    I hope it helps.

  • Essential concepts for an 8 year old budding music producer :)

    Hi all

    I'll take my 8 year old daughter away for a stay of 6 weeks. She sings. I mean she sings throughout the day. Literally never tired of singing... She's still playing the piano but Im thinking this will be a good time to start.

    I want to introduce to Logic pro. The goal is to let her loose with my macbook, logic pro and let her find a way of composing her own songs. IM thinking essentials that I need to pack in my suitcase is as follows:

    1 Macbook with logic installed

    2. Midi keyboard - think a unit Audio M - don't know whether to go 25, 32 or 49 keys

    3 microphone/voice recorder - or not (do not know how well the mac built in microphone works for her)

    4. decent pair of headphones

    Any suggestions for the 2 points. 3. & 4. would be welcome.

    Also, and perhaps more importantly, suggestions on how to introduce the world of music production. Are there notable tutorials out there that would be appropriate for children?

    Your comments are greatly appreciated.

    See you soon

    My only suggestion is, if you really want to teach him how to play the piano, (which is a great idea) get a keyboard 49 keys minimum. In addition, as a music teacher... don't forget that a "keyboard" is far from playing a real piano. However, we can learn the basics of the music on it and use it with computers. Eight-year-old is the ideal time to start, if you think it's promising, get his first lessons of piano and learned to read, play/composing by ear is wonderful, but learn to read music opens worlds of music.  I served as a teacher of jazz guitar at the University here and teach music theory API.

    (My opinion) The most important thing for a young musician (if she is going to be just a hobby or more) is to learn the rudiments of music because of this point, you can go anywhere. (Lady Gaga is a classically trained pianist)

    If you have installed GarageBand, I would start there, (it is built on a subset of logic and all the basics are here) that's a lot for a child of eight years to work with, it allows to display in musical notation (played with the keyboard) MIDI tracks, but also the standard format "piano roll".

  • Help continuity when using 4 (old) and El Capitan (keeping an eye on my 9 year old)... I'm new to mac is so go easy on me.

    Well, 1st of all... Hello. Second... If you take it easy on me please... I am new to Mac but not new for iPhones. I have an old 4 I used to keep an eyeout on my 9 year old... I just got my mac and started having all loaded profiles and today there is no activity on iMessage. I think I know the answer, but as I said, I got a Mac for about 2 days, but it took many years of iPhones.

    My initial guess is that continuity is not able to interact with any iOS prior to 8.1, but it used to. The only other was activate keychain and turn on the transfer procedure. The other phone is a 6. Anyone know what all the seetings should be?

    Thank you...

    Continuity is not supported on the iPhone 4.

  • Children less than 13 years old sharing family

    I have recently implemented the family sharing to me, my wife and my 12 year old son.  Everything fine until now except the notification disappears boring of an application download request of my son. If I don't have my phone at the time of the request, I have nothing Visual to let me know that he asked to download an application.  The only work around I have found is by physically checking notifications by pulling the bottom of the screen.

    In any case, my question is - once my son turns 13, he will be able to download applications without asking my permission and is there a risk that it can spend my money download paid apps and App purchases?

    It is not enabled by default, but you can keep the ask buy feature until they are 18. Ask and make purchases with Ask to buy - Apple Support

  • My 7 d is two years old. Photos seem to be burned. Disgusting ISO performance. What should I do?

    I compared it with the same old 7 d bodies or more. They perform much better.

    I installed firmwere. Areas of high lights are always too well burned which gives the feel of a 10 year old camera.

    Is it possible to change the sensor? It will make a difference?

    How much it can cost to change the sensor?

    Yes, it would be useful to see an image with the EXIF info.

    It is possible, that something is wrong with the camera.

    However, it is also a good possibility that something is out of adjustment. Have you tried to reset the device to its default settings? Only from your description, I suspect that exposure Compensation value highly the positive side. This assumes that you use in one or the other of the auto exposure modes, of course.

    Or, it is possible that something is "stuck" in the memory of the device. You might want to try "reboot" of the camera. It's pretty simple to do with the 7 d. Turn off the camera, remove the two batteries (battery and the small battery, silver date drawer merchandise the rechargeable), turn on the camera, press the shutter button once. It does not occur, but it should drain the remaining power in the camera and to make a "reboot", clear memory. Turn it off again, reinstall the battery, then check the time. Is it is necessary that needs to be reset, then you have a good reboot. If not, start over, but not remove the battery for half an hour, maybe an hour this time. Check the date and time again.

    If none of the above help... you could also try reinstalling the firmware. Download a new copy on the Canon site and follow the instructions. It's easy, just be sure your camera batteries are charged correctly (if the camera turns off due to low battery in the middle of an update of the firmware, it can "brick" the camera, which means you will have to go home.)

    If the reset to the default values, by restarting and reinstalling the firmware do not help and we cannot give you useful advice in watching one or a few sample photos, it may be necessary to send the camera to check. There might be a bad element, but it is likely that the sensor or the shutter. A bad sensor normally comes as black bands of dead pixels, or all of the black image. A bad filling is normally an area of the image partially black. Mainly, I would suspect a measurement system that is out of whack... or incorrect shutter... or the incorrect aperture control.

    I have two 4.5 year, 7 d, each with about 100 000 clicks on it, and they work fine. I hope that we can find a simple solution to the problems with yours.

    I assume you have no access to the password for the user of your daughter.  As an administrator, you may open the control panel in Win XP and select user accounts.  The options will allow you to change or remove the password of your daughter.  Then you could sign on behalf of your daughter.
    However, who would probably trigger another outbreak of 'bananas', because your daughter will realize that you have changed or deleted her password.  This forum is not how parents react to problems of girl.  However, she is only 14, is YOUR computer and you have good reason to worry about his online activities.
