Dv7t-4000 power problems

I bought a dv7t-4000 in September, and so far I've been pretty happy with it. However, I had a lot of problems with smooth audio video-sounds would sometimes be looped for a few seconds and things would be long to load. Recently, I noticed that all the issues went away once I unplugged the AC adapter and started running on the battery. I looked at the three places where things could go wrong - the power grid that I plugged the power cord and the real internal components of the laptop. I tried to run the laptop in four different locations with the same result, as well as three different cords (120W and 90W, which should be supported by the dv7t, as far as the manual says). After testing both, I felt that the only option is the internal components. I checked the forums here and read this thread, who told me that this problem happened to other laptops, but I know for some that the power cable is not the issue, as says this solution. I have the latest video and audio drivers, as well as all updates of Windows/BIOS/material I can find. Could I possibly get a confirmation of what I think is wrong, or maybe other solutions short to order a new power connector and disassemble the laptop to jump in the spare room?

Serial number CNF0341WKS

Product number WV703AV

Pseudo-resurrect this thread in case where someone else happens to have this problem. After 3 separate the sets of repairs on one and a half months time, a replacement of the motherboard has finally solved the problem. It is a problem entirely based on the material, and cracking only open the laptop and reinstalling the card will fix it. Good luck to the other people in the case where this helps out you.

  • On the Satellite P30-131 power problem

    I have a power problem and I tried the process of elimination, but could do with help, I gave as much detail as possible and appreciate any help or advice.

    This started a few weeks ago and seems to be deteriorating slowly.
    I turned on the laptop and all 3 lights before the main power on fully charged battery light and light green...

    I started noticing a few times when my power cord is plugged into the laptop that, without warning, the laptop switches to the battery power and also turns off power light, battery light turns off too but which may or may not happen, in any case the laptop is still on but now running on battery.

    I then out of the supply cable and reconnected it hoping that power is restored, but it has no effect, I have to close then low laptop unplug then Pug back in and I get all 3 lights and then I can start.
    Now, when I boot it does not always solve the problem and I can finish on a few seconds of starting battery.

    Its certainly not the battery because it has a new battery replaced 12 months however, its either the adapter or the connection inside the laptop that plugs into the adapter.

    The reason I think it is perhaps one of them is when the laptop going to battery, lead that is always plugged into laptop, I moved, and this can cause the return of t lights and also the laptop back in, power once again, but if I let go then it goes to the battery again one the light turns off. I also took the battery out and kicked and the laptop works but has lost the power sometimes when I moved it turned off my tour so I'm sure that it is related to the lead, but do not know if its internal or external.

    Any help or advice appreciated

    Thank you

    What kind of help did you expect exactly?

    > Its certainly not the battery as it was a new battery replaced 12 months however, its either the adapter or the connection inside the laptop that plugs into the adapter.

    It seems you have tested everything that could be tested using common control procedures, I think that more is not possible
    I can provide also a few suggestions and I m coming to the conclusion that neither electronic power supply is not ok or your power adapter.
    But I would tend to the first; electronic power supply.

    As you can see that these are only suggestions

  • 2nd hard drive for HP Pavilion dv7t-4000 CTO Notebook - what do I need?

    Hi, I have the HP Pavilion dv7t-4000 CTO Select Edition Entertainment Notebook (product # WV703AV). It can accommodate two hard disks but only came with one. What would need to be able to install the second hard drive? I need just a connecting cable or I also need to caddy or kit?

    Also, would I get a solid state? My laptop that would support or should I just use regular?

    Currently, I am on Windows 7 64-bit. I have a 500 GB hd (which came to be partitioned with hp tools/restoration).

    Help with what I would need to a conventional hard drive or ssd would be greatly appreciated. I tried to look through messages of others first, but could not find anything specific to my model. Thanks for your time!

    Hello:

    The only place I know where you can get a 2nd hard drive kit is that provider.

    http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?Main_Page=product_info&products_id=345

    Your laptop should be able to work with an SSD, but I can't guarantee it.

    I don't really see any point in adding an SSD unless you make the main hard drive, and to do this, you must get an SSD of the same size as the original 500 GB hard drive to use the recovery discs to reinstall the operating system.

    Most people get smaller SSD and they use the W7 product key to activate a simple installation of W7.

    If you can read all 25 characters of your product key for windows 7, you can do your own installation media and allows to install Windows on a smaller than 500 GB SSD.

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. The link below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://download.CNET.com/Windows-7-USB-DVD-download-tool/3000-18513_4-10972600.html

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

    So the bottom line for your laptop is you can install (upgrade to) one of these 3 processors:

    Intel Quad Core i7-840QM 1.86 GHz processor, SC turbo up to 3.06 GHz, 45W 612260-001

    Intel Quad Core i7-820QM 1.73 GHz processor, SC turbo up to 3.06 GHz, 45W 583053-001

    Turbo Intel Quad Core i7-740QM 1.73 GHz, SC processor up to 3.06 GHz, 45W 612259-001

    If you have a dual core processor in your PC, you could not install a quad core processor.

    Since you have a quad core processor in your laptop, you can not install a dual core processor.

    I hope that I have explained this to your satisfaction.

  • Power problems: computer turns off when the power supply cord is unplugged.

    original title: power problems: computer shit turned off when the power supply cord is unplugged.

    I have a HP Pavilion dv2000

    Windows vista home premium/sp2

    AMD Turion (TM) 64/2 1.80 ghz processor

    1 GB memory

    32 bit operating system

    I have 2 problems with this laptop.

    !. I have lost the power cable and bought an expensive one online step (model: PA-1650-02 c. input 100-240v 1.5 put out a(1,5A) 18.5V 3. 5 = a)

    When I first plugg cord battery charge light came on the balance, then he started to come on and outside.

    now its completely off, even with the power cord plugged in. on the lower right part of the screen its showing that cord is connected to the power supply and the battery is fully charged, but as soon as I unplugg the power cord or remove the computer cut right away.

    the second problem is that the left mouse botton does not work, the work aside right very well. I went in the proprties to put it right, click on to, but who does not work either. I've updated the drivers but still nothing.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi aloum,.

    (a) what kind of mouse you are using?

    (b) the left button of the mouse seems to be stuck or it does not meet the click? This only happens with certain applications?

    Step 1: Test the mouse on another computer or another mouse on the test computer

    To determine whether the mouse or the computer is defective, follow these steps:

    1. test the mouse in question on a system that works, you know. If the problem appears to follow the mouse, you may need to return or replace the mouse.

    2 test a mouse you know is working on the computer in question. If the problem seems to stay on the computer, then the problem is most likely related to the software.

    In regard to the battery not holding charge

    Battery problems are often associated with the battery itself. If you encounter this problem, contact your mobile PC manufacturer. If you purchased the battery separately from the notebook computer, contact the manufacturer of the battery.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/bph06788#n414

    The first time it's happened that I noticed that the power light little would go as I connect the power cord to the back of the unit.  But the little green light and then returned.  After some tests, the power light remained on and I was able to turn on the pc.  However, it started again this morning so I finally took my monitor power cord and used this one to connect the power supply to the back of the computer and to a power outlet and it works.  I plug the pc power cord into the monitor and my monitor works too so I don't know if it is or is not the power cord, but I'll go out and get a new one and see if that solves all my problems.

    However, my question is this... If the problem is with the power supply that I plug in can be replaced?  If so, it is something I can do myself or should I consider somewhere to do?  Also, if I need to replace the power supply and I can do it, how can I know what type of replacement power supply unit power I need to get and are there any other cables that I also need?

    Thank you so much for all your help.

    The information I found States 7865 HP is a Win98ME around 2001. The stock PSU is a Bestec 200W.

  • Power Mac G5 power problems...

    Hello, on a quest to find a G5 computer, I found an early 2005 Power Mac G5 (2x2.7GHz). The first time I plugged it in and turned on, it works beautifully. The second time, I pressed the power button and heard a loud noise from the power supply. I replaced and this is what is happening now:

    When I plug the power cable in, there is a small clicking noise about a second after plugging in, and the power led on the front of the machine flashes for the click. However, it does not at all depend on when I press the power button. When I unplug the cable, it makes the same noise about a second after I unplug the unit. I see a pale glow of the light output after unplugging it.

    Anyone have any suggestions to solve this problem? It is part of a collection, that's why I want to do operational.

    There may be defective capacitors or other power supply problems, including

    overheating in the dust inside the power supply or air channels. And

    If the device is cooled by liquid, other things may be involved.

    Since all the PowerMac G5 power supplies are considered to be custom,.

    to get a good replacement is a way hoped to improve the situation.

    Unlikely as is, actually an inexpensive job.

  • Satellite Pro U400 starts - power problem?

    Hey,.

    my liquid U400 down without any reason and doesn't start anymore.
    My first idea was damage from CPU, but even if the laptop is taken to power the power led does not illuminate.

    (1) make U400 notebook work normally when the battery is removed, but pluged in power? Because if not maybe only the battery is broken.
    (2) any other ideas? :)

    Guarantee is more than 1 months :(

    Answer to your question is YES. You can remove the battery and use your laptop with AC power only. In most PC stores showing the rooms are placed laptop without battery. Probably the batteries have been stolen in the past.
    Anyway, they can run with AC power only.

    When you connect the laptop to the power plug and the power light is not on I assume that there is a problem of electronic power supply.
    Contact the nearest authorized maintainer and ask for help.

  • With Satellite A30 power problems

    Hello

    Over the last four years, I have been using a Satellite A30 with XP Pro... had no problems whats so ever until that last months... I started to notice the battery life becomes lower before (prob because of the decrease in battery life) but also when he is on the grid it will charge the battery to 100% but instead of power are removed from the sector It starts to drain the battery even when the sector is connected.

    Another problem is that I have to keep or stop the laptop goes into hibernation mode so it can recognize it is powered from the battery to load... even in this case, it may take several attempts for the laptop to begin to charge the battery...

    These problems started start after warranty, and was released in additional insurance coverage

    Any information or help gladly appreciate it that I fight to get assignments done University

    Thank you

    Ben

    Hi mate,

    had a similar problem with an other friend A30. After sending the machine to an ASP (certified partner), they told us that the internal charger was defective and they have offered to swap the motherboard.
    But given that the motherboard was really expensive for him he sold the machine on Ebay and bought and Satellite A200 which is a machine really well.

    I guess that the motherboard is gone...

    That's all

  • Satellite A110: keyboard, touchpad, power problems

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A110, purchased a few months before. In recent weeks, it started randomly locking the keyboard and the touchpad (with or without external mouse plugged - although an external mouse still works).

    Now there is power to the top of the issues, with the suspended system Bios Toshiba screen, can fully initialize maybe once in five.
    Acquisition of wireless network is also very temperamental. I tried this software I can think (new drivers/virus scan/uninstall-reinstall), with the exception of a reinstall full backup disk Toshiba.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think we should first find out if the problem is software or hardware related.
    In this case the installation of the operating system with the Toshiba Recovery CD is recommended.
    After installation, the laptop should work without worries.

    But if the unit will hang and not start properly there could be something wrong with the hardware.
    I think that your warranty is valid and in this case you should always contact the ASP in your county for a check.

  • Toshiba TL96 power problems

    Hello everyone,

    I'm not very tech savvy so please excuse in advance.

    I have the TL96 Smart/3d LED TV. Purchase August 2012 from the wonderful Comet. Anywho, I had no problem at all until yesterday.

    Television has decided to close automatically in standby mode, even if at the time when television was in use. Since the decision, I can get the TV to power - LED 1 light is green fixed - no light at all on the 2 LED light - but it's just a blue screen.

    The TV remote control does not work, the controls on the side of the TV do not work either. I have the TV plugged directly, I took the plug for 30 seconds and retried and always the same scenario. TV starts, green light is solid, and it just goes straight to a blue screen.

    I removed the HDMI connectors and also we had a PC Tower connected via RGB input - I tried to light a single HDMI connected and swapped their all - always the same result.

    Support FAQ suggests a "lock" for the TV controls does not, but I can't locate it.

    Any advice would be appreciated because it is outside the standard 1 year warranty and the provider is currently in liquidation.

    I am a single MOM with two boys who are absolutely dying to return Minecraft!

    Thanks in advance

    Katie

    The Panel mentioned blocking disables the keys on the TV. All the buttons on the remote control is still usable. But I guess that's not the problem.

    I think that your s TV material is affected. Perhaps the mother board who knows I guess that there is no simple workaround solution for this problem.
    The technician must check the unit to find out the defective part, but I think in the case of defective Panel or motherboard the fix would be expensive :(

  • Standby power problems M30-344 (CPU uses only 600 MHz)

    Hello!

    In the power saver profile I can choose only the cpu rate of 1-3! I've now uninstalled this tool and reinstalled the version by the net. But I can use only 600 mhz!

    [Edited by: admin 7 May 05 08:18]

    Hello

    As far as I know if the motherboard is changed the speed of the CPU will be around 600 MHz and in this case the service partner needs to update the CPU microcode. After that, the speed of the processor will be as before.

    I hope that you have already solved your problem with the speed of the processor.
