• HP ProBook s 4540: HP ProBook s 4540 - keyboard replacement - advise

  Have a 4540 s HP from my neighbor who dumped some broth on the keyboard.  The P and O do not work, the K - L -:- and space sometimes work, are sometimes stuck in down position.  At this stage, it is virtually unusable.

  The serial number is 2CE338382Z and the Code of Prod C9K7OUT #ABA.  The insignia claims that it sports an Intel's I3.

  So, I see videos here describing how to remove and replace the keyboard.  It does not seem too complicated for me - I'm ready to take the plunge.  If someone has done this before, you have some tips on where are the land mines?  Or is it pretty much direct?

  And where exactly I think the correct keyboard replacement part?  What I have to disassemble the unit first and look at a part No. on the entire keyboard?  Can't seem to locate the function parts here.  Can someone link me please?

  Thank you all.

• Satellite Pro A120 and keyboard replacement

  Can someone let me know what the procedure for a keyboard replacement for a laptop Satellite Pro A120 of out-of-warranty in the United Kingdom.

  Thank you

  Well, you can order the compatible keyboard of the ASP in your country.

  The addresses and telephone numbers, which you can find here:

  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-> support download &-> find an authorized service provider

  You can also ask ASP for keyboard replacement.
  But it s a pity that your warranty is invalid. :( So you will have to pay for the replacement.

  In any case, the replacement of keyboard is not very delicate, and if you have a bit of experience then you can replace this keyboard by yourself.
  To remove the keyboard, follow these steps:

  1. turn the computer.
  2. open the screen and make it flat.
  3 insert the tip of your finger into the slot on each side and remove the door-keyboard. It is a small plastic above the F1 - F12 buttons cover.
  4. remove the 2 screws flat head, securing the keyboard.
  5. lift the upper part of the keyboard while freeing up the hook and lower the face of keyboard on the palm rest.
  6. remove a screw support plate and the keyboard.
  7 disconnect the cable from the keyboard connector on the system board and remove the keyboard.

  But note; Be always careful and don't use force to remove all the parts.

• Inspiron 1720 WXGA upgrade to WUXGA

  I want to update some of my components on my laptop. I have the Inspiron 1720 with the WXGA screen, I want to know if I can improve it for the WXGA. If it is possible, will it take a new inverter Board? Thanks in advance.

  Indeed, will need you a new Panel and inverter, plus a new cable LVDS (the cable that connects the motherboard and display within the system board).

  Given the age of the system, expect a decline as well major performance (higher resolution screen will require much more GPU power to run).

• Disable TouchPad on Dell Inspiron 1720 - Vista Home Premium

  I have a Dell Inspiron 1720 laptop and I would like to disable the touchpad so that I can move the cursor of the mouse only.

  Why? One wonders...  I can type text, when suddenly, the cursor will jump and I tap on the line above on the previous text. This has happened before, when I had first PC, and I've sorted it by disabling the touchpad. However, I have re installed the OS, etc, and everything must be reset to zero.

  2 years on I forgot how do. I tried Panel Manager and control device, but he can't get by on this machine. The system is Vista Home Premium, if it is of no relevance.

  Hi The_President,

  This site gives you the steps to disable the touchpad.

• Update BIOS Inspiron 1720

  I have an Inspiron 1720 under Vista Home Premium and I want to upgrade to Windows 7.   The Microsoft Compatibility Test indicated that there would be no problem.   But when I tried to install Windows 7 Home Premium, he answered by saying that I had to update the version of the BIOS (A03).   After having checked the Dell Support the version the most recent is A09.   When I try to download it all I get is a download manager that tells me that there are no files to download.   In my view, the file I need is 1702_A09. EXE.   How to install this update of the BIOS?

  eusetep

  Please download the slot BIOS file for your system.

  Let me know if you have any questions, the battery must be charged and connected to the AC adpt during the update.

  All applications must be closed. Interrupts the installation could make the motherboard unusable.

• Performance issues on Inspiron 1720

  In recent weeks, I am the proud owner of an Inspiron 1720. While I'm very happy with the laptop - I think even my sales office for the moment - there is a problem I have on audio.

  Whenever I'm playing music, this either using Winamp or Media Player, I'm starting to have serious performance problems. Applications suddenly stop responding or respond to a slow pace, and the strange thing is that these performance problems disappear as soon as stops audio playback. For example, if a windows unresponsive, I simply hit the hotkey "stop" or "pause", stops audio, and a fraction of a second performance shoots through the roof again.

  I use Vista Home Premium SP1 and the latest drivers available on the Dell site. It is not related to SP1 by the way, I have experienced the problem before the update to SP1 as well.

  A short diagnosis:

  • Manager tasks does no spikes in usage of CPU or memory that are worth noting.
  • It is also obviously not related to the audio player that I use for the Winamp and WMP have the problem. Memory of Winamp, use exceeds 10 megabytes - and its often much less than that.
  • Strange as it may be: the problem does not occur when that I consult a movie DivX by WMP. Can it be linked to an audio codec any?

  That's as much information as I am able to provide at present. Someone at - it tips or ideas on how to solve this puzzle?
