Broken fan and replace it?

Hello, I have a laptop HP DM4-1160 (less than 1 year) and two days ago my fan began to be extremely strong. It's clearly something wrong with it.

I was wondering if it is possible to open the computer and check the fan (or if there is another way), or if I should be on the right side and send it to HP and allow you to handle? Warranty is still valid, it is certainly an option.

I suggest to go with the option of warranty service that the fan is not listed as a customer replaceable part.

Best regards
ERICO

    Hello

    > Already built a desktop computer but never opened a laptop
    I wouldn't really recommend open Notepad by yourself.
    As you have already said, you never opened the laptop and believe that there is a big difference between laptops and desktop PC!

    All covers and parts must be removed in the correct order! It's hard for someone who never took these pieces.
    In addition, the Qosmio G20 is a portable powerful. It s not comparable to other laptops!

    I think that it s safe to contact a technician for laptop that has laptop more experience as a common user like me and you!
    I think it of better spent a small payment as to damage the motherboard laptops or other parts!

    Best regards ;)

    code 511 undetected fan and the fan does not turn or did not run where do replacement or this question solfware please help

    [Moved from the community centre of Participation]

    Fan errors are usually hardware problems. There is a fan in the case including detector does not detect that it is available or spinning. This could be a problem with the real fan or the fan sensor.

    Does this have to do with? Are you talking about an error that is displayed by a Windows machine? If so, what version of Windows? When the error take? At boot time? Before or after that Windows allows you to open a session? When you provide no details, it is almost impossible for anyone to help.

  • XW6000 cooling fan and CPU connector issues

    XW6000 workstation, 2 x 3.06 Ghz Xeon processor, 4 GB RAM, Radeon X 1600 512 MB AGP, OS Windows 7 video card.

    Hello, all,.

    I have a strange problem with this otherwise excellent camera. A couple of weeks, he has begun to close randomly and would usually start at the next attempt. I suspect the graphics card and replaced him as fans, cleaning the CPU fins cooling and re - apply CPU thermal paste. The computer was fine for a day or two and then become erratic, with the same symptoms as before. Then he refused to boot at all - the screen remains black, all the cooling fans would be out for a second, then rest static. I didn't hear any beep codes but the HD light was lit in green.

    The PSU was then replaced by no effect. I went through the usual process of reinstalling components failure, removal/replacement RAM & other devices in order to see if they were the problem with no improvement. In all cases, the HD light would turn green for a second or two, the PSU/CPU fans would be like before kick and then the red light HD flash intervals of one second.

    Finally I found the PSU and CPU fans would turn at maximum speed, when I disconnected the CPU power connector six pins. But of course the computer then wouldn't start. The left light shone right green and red.

    The computer is now completely disassembled and I can't find anything obviously wrong (fade/broken) on the motherboard. Clearly, something is being short circuit when the power of the CPU is connected.

    Is a new motherboard required or is there anything else I can try?

    Thanks in advance,

    esseff.

    It was the motherboard (again)!

    I just set up the replacement for the replacement and everything works fine now. No problem with the revalidation of phone despite the change of the major component. Hope this helps someone with the same symptoms.

    Thanks to everyone for their help.

  • How to get and replace a key on the Satellite A100-522?

    Hey, Toshiba.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-522 model No. PSAA2E-01C01EED and one of my shift keys
    has broken below, so I can't use it (the small plastic bar to balance the key is broken
    If the key "blockages". Can I send it for repair to the warranty, and Ive talked to the
    seller, but I don't have the time to send it for repair (no laptop replacement in the meantime).

    Is it possible to get a new key and replace it myself? I know that some other laptop producers do the same thing,
    rather than use a lot of time on repairs, if they are too simple.

    Concerning

    Hello

    Well, it's very easy to replace the keys.
    Please check this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=20727&MessageID=76283

    But if the key is broken you will need to replace the entire keyboard.
    To remove the keyboard, you have to remove the cover plastic thinking above the F keys.
    Under this coverage, you will find 2 crews secure the keyboard
    Remove the two screws and remove the cable from the flat keyboard which is connected to the motherboard.

  • Satellite A10 - problem of the fan and processor speed

    Hello

    Recently, my computer stops and overheated while clunked there fan who told me that I had to clean the fan and the heat sink. I have it done, replaced everything and then turned back on my computer. The fan seems fine now except that it only lights up for about a second and a half and then cuts off. While the computer on, it is not overheating but the fan just trying her continue again and again and again and turns off after a second or two. I think to compensate, the computer is running only a percentage of its capacity because on top the fan doesn't work does not correctly, the computer is running about 50 percent more slow it was 10 seconds before it overheated.

    When I replaced the fan, I noticed that the card that turns the fan was wobbly, which would have something to do with it?

    Assistance, alternatives or insight would be extremely appreciated.

    Best regards, Niko

    Hi mate,

    In your case, it could be that the fan cable to the motherboard could be defective. Thus, you´ve has already removed it, just so it again, remove the fan and check if the cables and connectors are OK.

    If the fan or the cable is damaged, then replace the fan. IMHO the bearings could be faulty too, so it's another reason to replace this fan (and the fan is really NOT very expensive)

    If you need some parts, google for or ask an authorized parts service center:

  • Question on Pavilion g7 fan/radiator replacement

    I have a HP Pavilion g7. It's a little more than 3 years now. The product number is XV343AV and the model number is g7t-1000. The fan was very loud and noisy for a while and I had the overheating computer once, but most of the time, it worked. However, yesterday my fan has stopped working. I intend to take my computer school and have their problems, but I need to order the parts for it.

    Look for the pieces on the HP site tells me I can get a Module sinks - UMA HM55 with the number 637189-001 and Module ventilation with the number 639460-001 (and there is also the option of a thermal buffer kit).

    My question is, should I buy the fan and the heat sink? Is one in another / they are not supposed to be linked together? What happens if I just replace the fan and not the radiator?

    You can replace just the fan, but you must remove the Fan/Heatsink unit. It's pretty obvious, how once you get the device from the laptop. The radiator is a piece of metal and really can't fail. The fan is the part that fails. When you put everything back together make sure to use good thermal paste applied sparingly and properly.

  • Pavillion Dv7: HELP! Cleaned fan and now this!

    My fan was constantly running for awhile now so I decided to clean it up. Of course, the only way to effectively clean was to open the laptop and blow air. So I did and when I closed it upward, I stayed with a screw. Now I am normally a short because I lost one of the long screws that are placed in the 4 corners of the rear plate. Later, I assumed that I did not replace the 2 screws for the Assembly of the fan. It turns out I was right, but I've been abbreviated 1 screw more. I had to open the computer again and replace the screws.

    So after I closed the laptop until I'm going to turn on and this is what happened: (also, I had asked a question on another laptop I have; it is not related to this one. The other is already fixed and working. It is also out of warranty).

    I don't know why this has happened, or what I can do about it. I had used an airbrush to clean dirt. Maybe there's some dirt still inside to hinder operations?

    You did that your video cable connection was well set correctly?

  • T61 pulsing fan and "Fan Error" sometimes at startup

    I have a T61 (7661 - 12G) which is a few years old now. I do not buy it again.

    Recently, the fan started pulses at 1-2 second intervals from time to time a little. Also several times starting it is showing "fan error" and close immediately.

    I did the usual thing (air duster, take it to bits and clean it properly), but this makes no difference.

    I did some research and it seems to be a good idea to replace the fan and re-apply new thermal paste to the CPU.

    This sounds like a reasonable approach, or are there other causes of this problem?

    If it is not overheating then the heater works properly, so a fan is all you need. It in, I would replace the thermal compound with Arctic Silver, it's much better then the dough of the plant which tends to dry out and crumble after a few years.

  • T60p - clean the fan and now is noiser

    My started fan gets loud if I open my laptop and he cleaned. Put it all back together, turned on and now it's even stronger than before. Any suggestions as to the cause of the problem? The laptop itself works fine btw just the fan is to be extremely strong and operating at 3000 + rpm and the cpu is at 48-50 degrees celcius.

    Right now I'll take off again, see if I did something wrong. Any other comments or suggestions on a soultion would help. Thank you!

    Yes you're right, it doesn't seem to be one. At the moment I took my laptop apart again and I disassembled the whole fan and put a lubricant on this area. It seems to have solved the problem at the moment, just as quiet when I bought. I ordered a replacement part, but it seems I've done be silent fan for now.
