• Maximum RAM for notebook DV7-4000 series?

  I have a laptop ' HP Pavilion dv7-4000 Select Edition Entertainment Notebook PC ' 4 years ago (2010), model WA357AV.  Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit with Intel core i5 M450 @ 2.4 GHz and 6 GB of Ram.

  What is the maximum size of RAM so I wanted to update?  I can go up to 16 GB with 2 8 GB cards? It is important that the current memory cards are "unbalanced" because I have a 4 GB card and a 2GB card when I always read both should be the same for the 'best performance '.  If "unbalanced" is OK, I might consider replacing just the 2 GB card with 8 GB, send me some 8 + 4 = 12 GB which would be obviously cheaper.

  Thanks in advance for any advice.

  Hello:

  Max ram with the processor of your model is 8 GB (2 x 4 GB).

  It's well run 4 GB + 2 GB but the memory does not work in DDR mode achieve higher.

  Replace the 2 GB chip with a 4 GB chip.

  That's the best you can do.

• Dv7-4000 series eSATA Question

  Hello friends,

  I have a HP DV7 - 4287cl (Plug here) and you have a question about the eSATA/USB port.  I was unable to find the answers to these questions on my own so I hope that someone here could enlighten us on this issue.

  (a) what is the speed of the eSATA connection? (ie. 1.5, 3, 6 GB/s?)

  (b) I understand there is a difference between e-SATA and e-SATAP - is this port "electric"?

  (c) recommendations on you readers / anyone have used?

  Thank you, in advance.

  (b) I understand there is a difference between e-SATA and e-SATAP - is this port "electric"? It is powered and can power a device such as an SSD or 2.5 "HARD disk

  (c) recommendations on you readers / anyone have used? Is not this issue a bit out of left field?

• HDMI + VGA issue / / HP DV7-4000 series.

  Dear friends,

  I have a question about usig external monitor with my HP DV7.  The model # is DV7 - 4287cl

  I have a HDMI port and a VGA port on this model. I intend to use an external monitor with it, but I wonder if it is not possible to use two external monitors with it since I have two separate ports?

  It's maybe a stupid question but I have a specific need to use an external monitor with my laptop, and have two rather than one would not be a bad option.

  Thank you, in advance.

  You can use an external monitor. The hdmi port will provide a much clearer sharper picture, but it's or the vga port will be acceptable. Two outputs is the limit of the video card, and one of those is always built in the computer screen.

• Pavilion dv7-4000 1 replacement of hard drives with more

  I have a dv7-4000 series double portable hard drive running windows 7 64 bit. One of the drives died and I am looking to buy a replacement and want to upgrade, but I'm not sure if I have 2 hard disks of different sizes.

  (1) can I replace factory bad HARD drive with a larger 320? (I'd then 1 factory 320 GB drive and 1 car again, more)

  (2) is the brand of the material of hard drive (Toshiba courses)?

  (3) are there any specific specs I should look for or avoid (ie. rpm, Gbps, etc.)?

  Hi wweksjk! : Yes, you can have 2 HD with different capacities for example on my PC of Xion MSI, which was built in 2006, I had 2 HD Western Digital, respectively 160 GB & 250 GB divided into 3 partitions

  the brand name is not as important as the number of turns faster the car turns your computer will be faster

  also look at the size of the buffer on the disk as well because the more it will speed up the boot time as well

  However install a new drive as boot drive will be complex, but if you follow the instructions that come with the HD installer it is possible

  for example, a 7200 RPM drive is faster than a 5400 RPM, but not as fast as a model k 10 or 15 k

  Good luck

  hope this helps to & help

  Happy holidays!

• LaserJet 4000 TN: The printer HP Laserjet 4000 Series PCL5: error state & quot; message & quot;

  I sent the following message to Microsoft after a ' update:

  I have a printer HP Laserjet 4000 Series PCL5 TN which worked beautifully "black only" for many years. A recent update (Windows 10:12 / 22/15) seemed to put the printer in the "printer error state", when you try to print a simple document. It has been my default printer for a long time. I followed the suggestions of printer "windows 10", that is, unplug and plug - check cable (not USB) connections, remove the printer from the list of print devices /, reinstall drivers HP for Windows 10 (following suggestions from HP on HP site) - nothing seems to work. It has a network cable connection, but it is directly connected to my computer, no other computers are connected. See screen capture below. I even did a "recovery" of before 12/22! Any suggestions? Thank you. GM

  I received instructions from Microsoft:

  You run the printer Troubleshooter and identify the cause?

  If this isn't the case, we will do that by visiting the link below and see if it helps.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-10/fix-printer-problems

  Check also the update (KB number) has recently been installed on your computer.

  You can also restore printer drivers and check.

  To restore the driver, you can follow the steps below:

  • Press Windows + R on the desktop screen.
  • Type devmgmt.msc and press ENTER.
  • Expand the printer drivers and do a right-click on the driver and select Properties.
  • Go to the driver tab and click driver RollBack.

  Can I assume that you use a parallel cable to connect the printer to the computer.  If you do this is a known problem that can be solved.  Go to Device Manager and then click ports.  Double-click the lpt for the printer port, and then click on device settings at the top.  Change the default setting of the middle box checked in the box below to use any available interruption. I would also check the legacy down.  If necessary, turn the computer off and then turn it back on, but most of the time this solves the problem without a reboot.

  Hi, I bought the HP dm1-4310nr U.S. netbook and are having a problem.

  As you know WE use different keyboard configuration that we have here in Europe.

  I was hoping to replace my pc keyboard by purchasing the Northern version of ebay.

  Only flaw is that it is not any version of this keyboard model says in the market if.

  Some other 4000-series keyboard is compatible with it?

  Hello

  There are many keyboards for dm1 machines, they are the same SIZE with yours, but as mentioned on my first answer: you have bought a very special, not available on other markets so same size but may not work. For the keyboard from another supplier, sorry I don't know.

  Good luck.

• New HP Pavilion DM1 4000 series max memory card

  Hello

  I am looking to buy a new ultraportable laptop and like the look of the new series DM1-4000. However, it seems that there are two versions available in the United Kingdom - the 4004SA DM1 and DM1-4027SA. The data sheet pdf, the noticeable difference only seems to be the maximum amount of memory installed (4 GB in the 4004, 6 GB in the 4027). I don't understand not why HP would impose this limit as both have 2 user accessible so-DIMM slots - my preference would be to upgrade the memory 8 GB by replacing both of the 2 GB so - DIMMS with 4 GB (after installing W7 64-bit rather than the stock windows W7 32 bit, it comes with).

  My question is this - is correct these limits of 4 GB or 6 GB or is it just a marketing thing?

  Interesting, the Maintenance and Service Guide (PDF) DM1-4000 series indicates the memory installable max is 8 GB.

  Thanks in advance. Any ideas much appreciated.

  Edit: Also noted there is a model 4020SA and 4020EA... both specify also 4 GB memory Max.

  There is not much sense, it?

  The maintenance manual makes it clear that portable computers running AMD processor have 2 slots of memory each hold 4 GB of memory.  See Chapter 1, page 2.

  Now, the Intel PC base seems to indicate that they cannot contain only 4 GB maximum memory - affordable housing from a single client.

• Switchable graphics option Bios Update Dv7 4100 series for hd 5650 m driver

  Y at - it another version of bios for my laptop? (I've included a few specifications of my laptop at the end of my post)

  I heard an update of the bios of other series that could control your switchable graphics. But my notbook integrates the latest version of the bios that I can download (v3.5, I think).  And this version does not include the switchable chart control.

  Why I ask this question? Because with switchable graphics disabled, you should be able to update your video card driver. With this driver I could play new games like far cry 3 or other new games with the quality, I should be able to play.

  My laptop:

  -Pavilion dv7-4177-eb

  -Video card: Mobility radeon hd 5650 graphics card

  -CPU: i5 M460

  -Motherboard: Hewlett-Packard 144 b

  with greetings

  Jori

  If you try to update the driver from AMD, AMD, be sure to do so only with the card on and not off AMD. If turned off switchable graphics, AMD map will not be displayed and the Intel card having for result the error you received.

  On a side note, AMD recommends sticking with the drivers from the manufacturer of the laptop.

• I forgot my password to my Satellite M series Bios

  I forgot my Bios password and I need to know
  How do I get it back?
  If there is, we know it please tell me soon
  Thank you very much...

  Hello

  Unfortunately the man it has nothing to do. You cannot remove the BIOS password by yourself. If such stop only help the ASP.

  The removal of the BIOS password is very easy on the desktop PC but not on laptops.
  Each series of portable supports a different way of removing the BIOS password.

  So, contact the service provider allowed in your country and ask for advice!

• 7073ca: HP DV7 7073 - corrupt BIOS

  Hi all

  My Pavilion DV7 (7073ca), running windows 7 Professional, recently started acting very strange and then becomes unbootable. I recently installed an SSD with the cloned, OS, but I do not clone the partition HP_TOOLS (mistake #1). When you try to start, the caps lock key will blink twice, indicating the BIOS corruption error.

  Knowing this, I tried almost everything to fix. I tried without clogging and re - connect the CMOS battery, I checked the voltage of the CMOS battery (it was fine), nehter of those who worked. I then tried to do a recovery USB using the provided HP the EXE file. It turns out that doesn't work don't not on windows 7, great, thank you (sarcasm) HP, so I had a friend make me a USB recovery on his computer windows 10. Using the windows key + b key trick, I tried flashing the bios recovery, with no luck. I even tried to use the same configuration with older versions of the BIOS without success. At this point, I decided to call support HP (error #2). They basically told me to google the anser and check the forum... Thank you, never thought of that (as sarcasm).

  Now I feel like im all out of options. If one of you could help me please, I would be very happy, my only other option is to buy a new motherboard I want to avoid at all costs. \

  Thanks in advance.

  I don't know how old is your computer, but if it is newer, you can try Partsurfer HP to see if the motherboard is available at HP.  If this isn't the case, you can search to see where it is sold.  I know that you would most likely find it on ebay.  Buy the same motherboard will make much easier since all the components will be fit and the recovery media will work.

  Here is a guide on Youtube that will help you to replace:
