Hinge HP Envy Dv7 problem

I bought my HP Dv7 Envy around 2 years now and the laptop itself works very well as usual. However, a year after his life, just after the warranty expired - the left hinge problem that seems HP Envy laptops computers riddle has occurred, causing damage to the carcass and the laptop overheating.
It was repaired by HP, but now the question is back again - causing my case crack and crack whenever the laptop is open and to substantially increase the heat of the laptop even during low stress activities, but also a slight separation between the base and the screen of the laptop and the screen "dive" to the left.

Student, money is quite difficult to find being and pay fix the obvious flaw in the design of HP laptop is not plausible, especially if the problem is recurring. Should what course of action I take? I am not happy with my also portable to the same problems that were laid off under "faulty subwoofer" last time.

Hi OscarLloyd,

  • Hinge for the HP ENVY dv7 problem

    I bought a HP ENVY dv7 two years December 6, 2012.  I don't really know when this hinge problem started, but when I saw the first time I've been a bit supprised then ignored it, thinking it was no big deal. But then he began to cause more problems than time and whenever I opened my laptop, problems such that the angle of the face has been slowly poping up and the window too.

    I now could push corn on the backs of the part to place when never opened the laptop and the part comes out even when I close, so I would it push in place.

    Last night, I discovered that the rear corner detached reveling inside the laptop when closed. I found the piece broke not for long. I think the part that is interrupted when I was placing the laptop inside my bag.  On a side note, not once I have droped laptop.

      

    Piece                       Side view                                                                                                         Back View Closed

    Is there anyway to fix my problem of Hindge?

    In fact I recently fixed it my self...

    I guess the screw jumped and it is the only screw that holds one side of the hinge in place.

    I just replaced the missing screw with one of the screws in back and it's been fixed just like new. Well other than breakage of exhibits... I also noticed that the other screws were not tight all the way.

    I hope this helps.

  • activate the AHCI mode on Envy Dv7 - 7398ca with SSD

    Year old i7 envy Dv7 - 7398ca notebook with SSD Samsung 840 Pro x 256.  Windows 8.1

    I've updated to the SSD shortly after I purchsed the laptop.

    No problem except the Samsung SSD Wizard software keeps tagging me as AHCI mode is disabled and must be enabled and I do not see it in the BIOS.

    Or I see anything that relates in the device as IDE Manager or other.

    It seems that the SSD is optimizing not itself based on the fact that it considers that AHCI is disabled.

    I apologize for the issue being this topic seems to be beaten to death over time, but I do not see what relates to this model or similar.

    Thanks for all the ideas.

    The system is set to ahci or RAID mode. You can tell that by opening the Device Manager and look at the storage controllers. Anyway it is optimized for SSDS and TRIM is activated. You can simply remove the program from Samsung and rest assured that your SSD is optimized.

  • Envy dv7 Motherboard upgrade successful... sort of.

    Hi all

    I'm working on a laptop HP Envy dv7 - 7227cl.  I replaced the motherboard and have now two questions... one is that the system requires an activation again.

    The other is that the new motherboard will not charge the battery... It wasn't a problem on the old motherboard...

    Battery test told me that the battery failed the test when you use hardware diagnostics from the bios.

    I don't have another battery to test with.

    I know that the original motherboard is a 682220-501 (part number of HP), and the news he gave me is a 682220-001... Could it be the problem?

    Any other ideas on what to check?

    Hello

    Thank you very much for the reply. Problems of compatibility with resection I expect the drive size (in GB)? Thank you.

    I don't think so. The only problem, what could happen is that the recovery disks don't work because the original hard drive was too big. However, this is not a problem. You can perform a new installation using the original version of Windows and the product key from the sticker on the laptop. In this case do not activate it online but wait for an activation message (activate by phone) who wakes up early after the new installation.

  • HP Envy Dv7-7255dx could not use records to Support HP; All testing equipment

    Hi all

    I'm trying to fix my friend computer that crashed about 2 weeks ago.

    My current problem is that the system recovery disks did not work at all on the 3 times I tried the system restore on this device.

    I think there may be a BIOS problem, because it's the only option in addition to the hardware failure I try hard.  I contacted HP support to try to get the BIOS update file or a file of recovery, and they said that they cannot provide for me, so my only option with HP is to send in support and the unit is out of warranty.

    The main thing I am looking for is the BIOS file so that I can reinstall the BIOS to see if it's actually the question before having to spend money to get this repaired laptop.

    I searched a lot and have been unable to find any BIOS file for this exact model, so if anyone has any ideas as to where I could find it, or should I try, it would be greatly appreciated.

    I have some questions to ask:

    1. is it possible to replace the motherboard in this laptop with motherboard with better graphics card? If there is could you write a serial number and model.

    2. my motherboard is broken - beyond repair and I need a new, same motherboard that the original is not found. Is it possible to order directly form maker? If there is, I would ask for contact and some tips.

    I'd appreciate any help ^^

    You have listed two different models, of which one is an AMD processor and the other is Intel. I will assume that you have the Intel model. Otherwise after return to clarify and we can do it for a model of AMD. Even if you have a processor AMD motherboard described below would be better, but you will have to get a motherboard and processor, of course.

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Your manual

    Your listing:

    http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docid=c03635483

    You have an i7-3630QM and nVidia GT650M video.

    The jury will have a faster processor; up to an Intel Quad Core i7-3840QM but it is no better than the 650 M video, you already have. In other words, you have the top of the motherboard brand for this model, and no better motherboard will fit in the chassis.

    You have this motherboard:

    To be used on computer models equipped with an Intel quad core NVIDIAR GeForceR 650 graphical subsystem of M with 2 GB memory discreet and operating system Windows 8 Standard 682040-501

  • HP ENVY DV7-7212nr motherboard Possible failure?

    HP DV7-7212nr ENVY

    • Windows 8 (factory) upgraded to Windows Pro 8.1 thru Windows Store.
    • 8 GB RAM DDR3
    • NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 2 GB GDDR5
    • 750 GB HARD drive with 32 GB WSSD Cache
    • Ralink RT3290 wireless card (beginning to remove connections a few days before this happened)

    Last night, I was using my laptop normally and he sat to play a game. During the game, he's dead, and not even think, I just returned it to my office for the next day.

    Well, today, I rebooted it and went to turn it on and I have almost nothing! The power light stays on and the hard disk activity is solid for about 2 seconds then turn off. The screen is blank, there is no blinking or beep codes and the WiFi light does not change color indicating that the computer has at least started.

    Being a computer scientist, I removed the RAM and reinstalled it. That did not help. I also tried to boot without the hard drive is connected. That does not help either. I also tried the Win + B BIOS recovery with my hard drive and a USB drive and no luck there dry. The last (possibly) worst part is... I removed the RAM and lit without it and still, no code blink or beep.

    At this point, I believe that my laptop has a failed motherboard, but I'm just checking from now until I have the chance to call HP support if there is anything else I can try. My warranty expires in three weeks only, if at least it happened before, not after.

    In addition, no one knows the direct phone number to the HP support which is on the ground in the USA. I never had a good turn-out speaking with the support of offshore and would like to work with someone who can help me better right off the bat.

    Installing Windows 7 on your HP ENVY computer Notebook dv7-7234nr is not supported by HP. In addition, no Windows 7 driver is listed on HP Software and Driver Downloads page for your computer.

    HP does not recommend installing Windows 7 and it will support the installation of Windows 7 on a computer comes with Windows 8. HP doesn't provide drivers for Windows 7 and the appropriate drivers are not available for the hardware in the computer. In addition, Windows 7 can not support some of the hardware or software designed for the computer.

    Make sure you create your media recovery HP or USB Flash Recovery discs before you edit or change anything.

    You will need to DISABLE 'Secure Boot' and ENABLE 'Legacy Support' in the ' settings of BIOS ' settings below page;

    Then, start Windows 8 and run the console 'disk management '. Using "Shrink Volume", reducing the size of the "C:" partition about half of its original size.
