HP Pavilion dv 6000: hardware upgrade for hp pavilion dv 6000
I have an old hp pavilion dv 6000, I recently upgraded to windows 7 and everything works well, but I would like to make the hardware upgrades as well.
I want to move to maximum capacity, specifically: processor, graphics card, hard drive, and wireless network card.
If someone can provide me with a list of known compatible with my system hardware would be great, I'll also be open to any suggestion of additional hardware upgrade if someone propose
Hello
Two things, you will not be able to upgrade: display the card and wireless network card.
(a) graphics card: we cannot spend more than 90% of laptops, including yours,
(b) wireless network adapter: your machine was built before the mid-2014, the whitelist prevents you to upgrade the wireless card.
Now, you have 2 items to upgrade (maybe 3): hard drive and the processor (CPU) (and maybe RAM)
(a) HARD drive: any 2.5 "HDD or even SSDS with 9.5 mm or less. SSD is more expensive but faster. HHD, please select the one that has RPM faster (7200 RPM), large cache (more is better). They are numerous on the following list including SSD:

(b) for the processor, please use following 5-69 of the manual page to buy the right part of HP. Please do not ask me why to buy at HP.

17-f151nm Pavilion: Pavilion 17-f151nm hardware upgrade
Hello, I have a Pavilion 17-f151fm, K6Z65EA #BED product number if that's any help. I'm looking to upgrade of hardware a bit but I find different information about the hardware so I'm in doubt a little bit what to do. This laptop has two slots of RAM or just one? I also want to replace the existing SDS, with HARD drive specifically Samsung Evo 850. Y at - there maybe some hardware incompatibility problems? And I would win some notable improvements in performance? Laptop is running Windows 8.1 x 64.
Thanks for the reply.
Here are the specs:
http://support.HP.com/ca-en/document/c04479935
Here is the Service Manual:
See page 2-3. You model is a processor Core i3 has 2 memory slots and it can operate up to 2 x 8 gig DDR3L-1600, for a total of 16 concerts. A SSD Samsung Evo 850 SATA-III works perfectly. It would be a significant speed improvement.
However, either upgrade involves a very delicate surgery. See p. 93 for the hard drive and back up to p. 70, showing the removal of the top cover.
See p. 104 for memory. I just say here that this is to remove the motherboard.

Pavilion 15 - an058: replace hd with ssd on star wars Pavilion 15?
I have a pavilion hp 15 - an058ca (the star wars one). I don't like that it has a drive in sata hard and want to put in an SSD. the thing is, I can't for the life of me understand how I would get it if I did. is this possible? everything else does? is there a technical documentation on how to get it? the manuals I can find via google are not quite the right model and seem to have a way somewhat different from getting in.
I can see where I take the screws, I can see how to get the optical drive out and how to get live them their which set the top on the cd tray. I can even see how down the hind legs. but I don't see how to get the 'high' rest off. and it is apparently the only access? Thanks for any advice you can give.
On this one actually access you the base. See page 49 of this manual:
The upgrade will be to endanger the guarantee but also as long as you can accept that, we will help in any way possible.

I want to install the Commander of the force star wars on my new PC, but says it is not compatible with windows 64-bit. I have try on windows XP mode and it tells me that I need to connect a hardware 3D device. I really love the game and I want to use it again.
Any old copy of Windows XP that could be installed in the host system? If you do not, it should be available at a modest price of an online seller. Perhaps (I'm not too), even an old Windows 98 TO work. The game (using a 3D engine) will not work under pure DOS, so you need a Windows environment so that it can work. Just FYI: If you get this old classic to run, new issues may arise. Known are the "mss32.dll" runtime error (you may need to replace this file with the newer version of SW:KOTOR 1) and the issue of video cutscenes (the games uses an obsolete video codec, Smacker - either you find an old *.) DLLS for it or have you convert movies in a modern format).
In conclusion: get old games to run on software/hardware modern (it is not only a problem of BONE) is one of the most fascinating and rewarding challenges to a real fan. But do not expect it will not be easy "out of the box" (or simply insert a CD).

Alienware Alpha refuses to play Star Wars Battlefront 3
Not too sure what else to try...
Bought a copy of PC of Star Wars Battlefront 3 of Dell.
He arrived, installed original, installed the game, but the game would not load (game seems to be gray out originally). Installed on my Media Center PC Battlefront (i5 / 16 GB-RAM/GTX770SLI) and it will start and play without any problems.
Went back to my Alienware Alpha (i5 / 8GB - RAM)... Upgrade to Windows 10... still has not loaded...
Experience of GeForce uninstalled and reinstalled and updated drivers for the last... Still has not loaded...
Updated RAM on my Alienware Alpha from 8 GB to 16 GB (ordered through Dell... shot in the dark)... Still load the game...
GeForce experience sees the game, but is unable to optimize or restart...
Account Origin see the game... but it's greyed out on the Alpha...
Windows sees the game as being "set up" and is unable to launch...
Any help or suggestions here? I called the origin, with me by checking the settings of my account and some basic PC troubleshooting... Unable to find a problem...
Reference called Dell... Transferred 3 times and told me its probably a "software problem" and that maybe they could help me if I paid them $129.00?... What is rather low because I bought the system, game and RAM directly through Dell...
I've seen countless comments, posts and videos of people with Alphas playing this game...
Anyone have any ideas on what I can try?
This site has really not much help.
After running around trying everything I could think of including updating my drivers and the operating system to upgrade my hardware and spend a few hours on the phone with the support of different groups... I ventured out of my own again and got the game to work...
I had to completely uninstall the game and then re - download it again and reinstall it from scratch...
Once I did the game loaded and play a lot.

Satellite C50-A-1 - game "Star Wars: the old Republic ' is lagging
Hello
I recently bought a Satellite C series. (C50-A-1 more specficly).
Problem is when I downloaded star wars: the old Republic, the game lags badly.The graphics in the game are set in the lowest possible to minimize lags and yet I still get them. Here's some info of dxdiag, although they should be known for this type of laptop, I suppose that:
OS: 64-bit windows 8.1
Processor: 2.13 GHz (2 CPUs) (Intel, Celeron)
memory: 4096 MB
DirectX 11Please help with it as soon as possible thank you
Have you already checked the hardware requirements to play this game smoothly?
C50-A-1 satellite was equipped with an internal Intel HD graphics card.
This GPU is part of the Intel CPU and to be honest, this isn t graphics card designed for purposes of games.To play games smoothly, you need a laptop nVIdia or ATI graphics cards.

Star Wars 15-an002ns: SSD installation socket m2
Hello
Recently I bought HP Star Wars Special Edition laptop for laptop - 15-an002n, which comes with 1 TB of HDD. I think it is too slow for the overall power of the rest of the components, and I intend to install a SSD for the OS. Consulted the manual, I see that the laptop has a blank m2 socket and some versions include an SSD there:
M.2 SATA-3 (NGFF):
● SSD 256 GB, 2280, M.2, SATA-3, TLCI installed some other SATA III SSD, but never a type m2. My questions are:
1 are there compatible with lower capacity models? I want to just install the OS here, so it would be enough with M.2 128 GB SSD.
2 how the BIOS will recognize the new drive as primary drive? I need to change the settings?
3. I alter anything else in the computer. This update will void the warranty?
4 is recommended for installed the OS from scratch in the new drive or could I use disk clone software? In this case, which?
Thanks in advance.
Currently, there is a problem with end users not being able to get this empty housing to recognize a M.2 WSSD drive added after delivery to the details of the laptop. Technically, the trying to jeopardize the warranty but who never stops the hard core of the valuation. So for the time being, until HP provides an answer as to what is happening with m2 slots, I do not recommend that you do the upgrade. If you want to go faster, I recommend that you install a SATA 2.5 inch SSD in place and place of the mechanical hard drive. Even that, however, will show warranty issues.

Hello syb1987,
As Meghmala mentioned, the game is listed as being fully compatible, however:
(1) you can try to run the game in different compatibility modes to determine is that they work.
(2) have you installed XP Mode? Try maybe to install XP Mode and install the game in the virtual environment.
(3) you can find others on the forums for this game in particular who were lucky in getting the game to properly install and run better.
Hope this heps
