HP G70 laptop

Hello!

I have a laptop HP G70 PC is 4 years old and the HARD drive is in very bad condition. I would like to replace it with an SSD, but I'm not sure that the Wistron 360 motherboard supports SATA III or not. I tried to find specifications or manual, but found nothing.

Any help welcome

Here is the link to the product for your model specifications page.

http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01606481

I can tell by looking at the plug, it has a Mobile Intel 4 series chipset, which means that the drive works the hard drive at a maximum rate of 3.0 Gbps (SATA II).

See page 3 of the form below.

Two Serial ATA host built-in controllers, each with transfer rates of up to 3 Gb/s, SATA support ports four for the increased storage capacity and speed.

I installed an Intel 330 SATA III SSD in my HP Elitebook 6930p which has the same Mobile Intel Chipset as yours and it works fine.

Still a big improvement over the mechanical hard drive and if I ever decide to get a new laptop, I have SATA III SSD to work with the new drives SATA III there.

    Hi @MarkDrink ,

    If the picture on the TV or monitor does not match the screen or has white areas on the sides of the screen, then use the zoom or aspect ratio TV or monitor. On TVs, aspect or zoom is usually in the form of a button on the remote control.

    You can also try F11 on the screen.

    Thank you.

  • Windows Update loop on my Windows Vista computer on HP G70 laptop.

    For the past month, every time windows update trys to start, my computer becomes real slow.  I check the Task Manager and find that 50% of the processor of my PC is busy.   By trail and error, I've always found that the task WUPFSVC works always at the time.   I went to services and stop the Windows Update Service and my CPU returned to 5-10%.

    I restarted the service and went to one of the optional updates that I have not installed and when I have atttempted to install it, the computer are entered in a loop and never finished...  I had to cancel with the Task Manager.

    The last bunch of updates have been installed on 25/06/2016...

    I use Norton/360 and System Mechanic.   When I try to run System Mechanic and perform in-depth analysis, it goes into a loop also...

    Any I deas would be useful...

    Why should I install these updates, if I disable the updates anyway?

    Automatic updates of the permitted won't let you install updates manually. To manually install updates means that you can not do anything on the issue. You are free to return to your previous configuration after the manual installation. Download pages are:

  • Activate wireless button

    The button that allows the wireless seems to have failed. It only connects to the internet if a finger is maintained on the wireless button while online which is difficult

    He is one on a HP G70 laptop. just out of warranty. I know that it might need a new button/switch but could also be another fault.

    Does anyone have a solution?

    Thanks DP - K

    Your fix sugest me a capacitor, no discharge, or something similar.

    In fact when started this morning it worked fine. However, I also did as you sugested.

  • computer laptop HP g70-460us displays the message to convert a map of greater capacity for better performance

    Graduated BIOS on a laptop g70-460us and now a window opening in the lower right of the screen that says, "attention!" For maximum output to connect an adapter of capacity sector higher' ideas of what to check or do?

    Thanks for the suggestion.  I did the hard reset and turned on the laptop but as soon as I had signed up on the rest of the message to appear.  I read far more and saw that some users had uinstalled the Quick Launch Buttons software and the message stopped popping up.  I checked to see if my laptop was even buttons and it does not work.  Then, I checked to see if HP offered the software for download in case I need to reinstall.  When I saw that HP was offering downloading I uninstalled the software of the Quick Launch bar and no more pop up message.  Thanks again.  I guess that the bios upgrade had some effect on this software.

  • Laptop HP G70-120EA

    Hello

    Can you tell me if I install a new hard drive on my HP G70 can I switch to 64-bit Windows?

    Concerning

    Fred

    Hi, Fred:

    The specifications of product for your model indicates that there is an Intel T5800 processor that is capable of running a 64-bit operating system.

    Yes, you can install an operating system 64-bit on your laptop, but I'd stick with Windows 7 x 64, unless you have Vista x 64.

    Windows 8 has problems with your model (audio usually does not work).

    I also recommend maximum memory removed the 1 GB module and its replacement by a 2 GB module if you have not already done so.

    64-bit operating systems require more memory and disk space to run efficiently than does a 32 bit OS.  Not double, but more.

    Probably better than a 64-bit operating system will run an OS with the same amount of memory on 32-bit (up to 4 GB).

    But try it with 3 GB you have and if you think that the 64 bit OS does not work at height, then increase the memory of 1 GB. This will help a little. The memory will also operate in DDR mode with modules of 2 x 2 GB memory, where it is not now.

    Best regards

  • HP G70-111EA: HP G70-111EA laptop Core2Duo T5800 processor - development options

    Hi all, I have an old laptop HP G70-111EA (product/reference: FX432EA #ABU) with a 360 C 09.67 circuit (to be honest, I have not been able to learn what it means in terms of a system or motherboard) and a Core 2 Duo T5800 processor,.

    I would like to try to upgrade the processor and or anything else that I can, to try to upgrade to Windows 7, or 8 if possible... or even to try a Linux OS like Ubuntu based (as the limitations of Windows 7 and 8 will follow the 'end of the support for the operating system... as in Vista' and disappointing from my favorite Win XP loss!).  And the problem is, I can't find anywhere that identifies the exact specifications of the motherboard, cpu socket set, FSB material and possible cpu upgrade speed limits options, etc. etc that are possible... or at least reasonable for the existing hardware.

    I downloaded the maintenance & Service Guide for the model, which shows a "processor Intel Core 2 Duo (6 MB of cache L2, bus 1066 MHz front)" can support a "T9400 2.53 GHz", but was really hoping to go beyond that, because it is not much better than the current T5800 2.0 GHz (2 MB L2 cache, 800 MHz FSB).

    Memory options seem or PC2-5300 667 MHz, DDR2, 667 MHz, PC2-6400 DDR2-would be the limitations of memory modules motherboard, or any other material restrictions also prevent the change of the memory and change from 32-bit to 64-bit in order to increase the current limits of 3 GB to 4 GB of memory... or is it a fixed limitation built into the system.

    Basically, I'm looking in any way I can increase the performance spec, any help or advice on this would be appreciated.

    See you soon

    The guide shows the T9400 as the top processor of the page. It wouldn't surprise me if a T9600 or a T9800 would work, but I can't guarantee these processors, and there are still enough expensive of course faster than ever. I had a laptop with the T9800 a few years back and it was pretty quick. I also just refurbished two older laptops with T9400 and with a SSD in them that they plow 10 Windows without any problem.

    The max memory is 4 GB, and you can use all of this, if you are running a 64 bit OS I recommend. Even if you are running 32-bit Windows, with two identical modules will alow so to run in dual channel that the sytem can take advantage on a 32 bit OS and memory transfer is about 10% faster and every little bit help.

    Yes, you can use aka PC2-6400 DDR2-800. Memory clock will always be 333 mhz (667 double) and no 400 mhz (double to 800). DDR2-800 is much more widely available.

  • laptop g70 t200 will be it coonect to the web in Europe and India

    If I take my laptop g70 t 200 to Europe and the India can download information via the web?  Boy's HP no help to find a place to ask this question.

    Hello:

    It depends on what wireless card you have now installed and where you live now (or where you bought the laptop).

    Some cards wireless from the same manufacturer and model have different part numbers that only work in certain parts of the world.

    HP generally refers to these cards as MOW (more people) and the ROW (rest of world).

    So, if you can provide manufacturer number and model of the card you have and if you use it now, we are able to know if it will work in Europe and the India or one or the other or neither.
