Cleaning my laptop HP Presario CQ71 (desciption to take my machine apart)

My cooling fan works for the whole day and I might solve this problem of cleaning of dust from the inside in the fan. However, I find all the documents on the internet that describe me how to open the laptop (which is screwed and in what order) who help out me. I am a trained technician but would like to help is available.

Thanks in advance.

    mother of laptop Compaq presario CQ71

    I have a question an abot in Selangor, this motherboard.

    the graphics chip is separate or integrated.

    My cq71 crashed and stopped working continuous overheating by weak graphics.

    so ive decided to spend the whole motherboard.

    but I need to know to or if I could spend graphics.

    I have already upgraded to the ram for the future graphics card integrated.

    also additional guides on how to pass map main would be apprteciated.

    No RAM, but you would like to install a better processor, too. Look at the manual for CPU options. They will be pretty inexpensive at this stage. You should also another radiator/heater unit to work with the different video chip. But it adapts to your chassis. The only way to look at this case if you do your own work. Otherwise, the cost will approach the price of a new laptop computer. Even do your own work that you will probably have to spend more than $150.

  • Compaq Presario CQ71-320SA: failure of the update of the BIOS via Support Assistant / should I update anyway?

    This morning I found that my laptop had not finished closing 8 hours ago. I stopped by pressing the button Off for 6 seconds and restarted. I then looked a likely cause and saw that a BIOS problem was probably the cause.

    I'm went to the site of HP support & with information about http://support.hp.com/gb-en/document/c00007682, I followed step 1 and I saw that my BIOS is F.11 21/08/2009.

    Support site told me that I need F.11Rev1/20/10/2014. I installed, rebooted and saw that he had failed.

    What's worse, is that the program Insyde update it says that the 2009 version is updated - see below.

    A kind person could tell me what I should then?

    Hello

    You can manually update the BIOS for your laptop by downloading from the link below:

    The current version available is F.23

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp51501-52000/sp51527.exe

    Once the download is complete, double-click the downloaded file and follow the instructions on the screen.

    You will notice may-continuous display blank for a few seconds, which is quite normal. Once the update is actually the device automatically restarts.

    Note to back up your data before performing the update. Also have your adapter connected to the laptop.

  • Compaq Presario CQ71 Ser: CNF01002QT model CQ71-4142F - Dead - no power supply - does not start - no led

    Hello *. *

    First time here...

    Compaq Presario Notebook Win7 32-bit - 4 GB DDR2, aged about 3 years?

    A customer brought this with virus / malware issues - arranged.

    On start-up, the bios made regular account that the HP OEM battery must renew. Not difficult technical question here.

    Powered on the laptop without the battery and the pc has stopped completely after a few seconds.  No beeps, no LED. Suspecting power, the original showed 19.* * volts. Ok.

    Bidirectional p - s for another check the jack plug connection. No change, tried jumping jack plug connection.

    Out two-way RAM for good, no change.
    Two-way 2032 battery of the bios for good, not change.
    Removed HARD drive, no change.

    Non-powered from DC or battery, depressed and button who was held for at least a minute, without change.

    The bios battery removed for 30 minutes, without change.

    Fan do not get stuck.

    No attached devices.

    Remarkable:

    Without battery : white DC power LED stays on for about 5 seconds. And then off.

    Old battery included: white DC power LED does not illuminate.

    I did not remove the optical drive, because I think it's ok. Works fine (or used to).

    I am familiar with this series of Presario laptops / laptops and while I have tried everything I know, I was wondering if, before I have conviction as having a short-circuit motherboard / failure, is there anything else I can try with this model of HP laptop before I am progressing with the send for repair of component.

    Thanks in advance

  • Compaq Presario CQ71-320SA: how to back up the registry

    I need to change my internet browser for Secunia PSI - it is to make changes to the registry. As I am a PC-numpty (a technical term) an expert on the PSI forum gave me a walkthrough.

    The first step is to back up my registry. I back up my laptop every month that you are prompted by the excellent Action Center of HP but can't find how to make a backup of the registry just. Here, a search found many threads, but none of them relate to my problem.

    Could someone help me please?

  • Compaq presario cq71, sudden death, does not start

    Compaq presario cq71-140ea. was fine yesterday but this morning it will not start. It turns on, displays of compaq on the screen and then does nothing. Have you tried pressing f10 to change the sequence of boot for the relocation, but it just says bios configure options at the bottom of the screen and will not actually in it. All keys have the same effect. Says on the bottom, what is it but isn't "doing". Does anyone have any ideas on how I can him get up and running?

    Ruling on a BIOS corrupted, removing the CMOS (exhibit) just battery resets the default settings for the BIOS, but you do not have to remove the laptop battery as well. Did you remove the two batteries?

    I still really want you to try to boot the machine with a stick of memory removed.

    Here's a good video youtube, that he mentions on the battery and electric shock _ you won't electrocute yourself, the voltage inside a laptop is very low and also the battery will be removed.

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=dbvmRsSh210

    Remove the stick dessu first (you don't have to replace the cover on the penalty), insert the battery back in and start. If no luck, remove the lower Strip and try this one. If it does not always start upward, then I would say that the BIOS is damaged. If it starts, then you have a bad stick of RAM.

    The RAM sticks are matched, you can't make them in trust, me it's a very simple thing to do.

    http://h20574.www2.HP.com/default.htm?lang=en&cc=us&hpappid=psml

    Also here is a link to HP multimedia Services library and some screenshots as getting there.

    When you click the link you may have to sign in again, giving the two pages of time to load, especially the other, it takes about 30 seconds.

    In the video he says you only touch the memory stick to the edges, it is a good idea, but I've seen people deal with it very casually and it's always nice. However just follow the steps in the video.

    I mention this once again and that's to make sure that you're statically discharged before opening the laptop.

    After trying the solution of the RAM (Random Access Memory) and if it fails, you will need a 1 GB flash drive. If there is something on this subject, and then save the information we have will be formatted.

    Flash player is required to save your BIOS.

    I guess we'll use your computer for girls, so I need to know what operating system is on it.

    The failure of DST short is normally indicative of a hard drive that has failed and must be replaced.

    The operating system and the software can be reinstalled using recovery discs that you made or purchased from HP.

    In order to use the recovery disks, you need to replace the hard drive with one of the same storage capacity or more.

  • How can I install Windows XP on windows 7 laptop Compaq Presario CQ62-215DX?

    I want to install XP on my laptop (laptop Compaq Presario CQ62-215DX) which has Windows 7... give me some advice please

    You replace the startup disk in the BIOS cd. Then boot from the XP CD. And press a button when it tells you. However, he will wipe away Windows 7. So, if you want anything copy everything you want (with the exception of programs), before formatting the hard disk.

    NOTE: XP has no drivers for most of whats on the system (LAN/Sound/player card etc.). So if that is the only computer you have, go to HP site for this laptop search, download drivers and copy them into something. Before you begin. Or you won't get back on the internet...

    Also NOTE: If the disk hard in it is SATA, you will need to disable the AHCI in the BIOS (change it to IDE mode). Or XP will crash before you get to the configuration screen. Unless you download the SATA drivers, unzip / extract and add them when it says press F6 (on a floppy disk).

    The XP CD does not have SATA drivers on it either. If you do not add the SATA drivers during installation, do not change this back to AHCI after installing XP. Or it will crash

    In addition, make sure that you have a XP key. A key to windows 7 will not work

  • laptop Compaq presario 2701T: battery cmos

    I need to replace the CMOS battery on my laptop Compaq Presario 2701 T and would like to know if the battery is located on the laptop and how to get it out.  In addition, if you may know where I can buy this point.

    Thank you.

    I finally found where the CMOS battery on my laptop Presario 2701.  I tired going road to tech support but I was told that my laptop was out of warranty so that they could not help.  Then I noticed that you can send the President of HP if you have a problem, so I did it, said my question and the next day I received a call for technical support and I was told the battery was under the rear cover of the laptop.  So after unscrewing which seemed to be a dozen screws on the bottom of the laptop I tried to remove the cover, but there do not seem to come off.  I then handed the laptop and pried off the keyboard, carefully removed the keyboard Ribbon that has two small tabs on each side that you just have to push back on.  Then you will see a square on the left side cover, remove the four screws, remove the cover and there is your CMOS battery in the upper right corner.  It is a flat regular silver oxide, number 2032 battery.  Replace the battery and put that together and it started right.  Changed the date and time and the computer is running back to normal.
