Laptop stripped screw hole?

So, I got my HP laptop since December and often use it for school work. Recently, I noticed one of the screws fell at the bottom of the laptop. The screws that fall was directly below the hinge of the screen on the right and I noticed that the screen is not as robust recently. < br > < br > I tried the screw, the screw back in, but he just continued spinning. I tried the screw with the other holes and others live with the defective hole and all screws are working it's just a hole that seems to be broken. Any advice on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated because I don't want the screen falling.

Look at this manual:

Manual

What is your laptop? The screw we're talking about is the one in the left corner higher to pages 55 and 56? That we won't in the hinge. The hinge see page 59 and 63.

It's the part for the hinges of the screen:

720548 001

$25 on eBay:

However, if you only had this laptop since December, he is likely under warranty. I'm going to bump this up to HP and see if maybe you contact via PM on this Forum. Any of the guarantees. I would like to emphasize that it is a chance to repair it cheaply and easily now before it does more damage.

  • Motherboard metallic screw holes

    Hi, I have a Q on the motherboard screw holes. Only the first two screw holes have half a ring metal dotted around them and the rest have a complete ring dotted metallized, does that mean something? I know that they are to the ground, but why only a semicircle are two? Thank you

    No reason, really. Only manufacturers design. I'm sure they have a reason for this internally, but as an end user, it really means nothing. Curious, though.

  • If I immediately stripped a screw inside my W530 head...

    It's so terrible. Then I begin to install my ram and follow the instructions to remove the keyboard. Everything's fine until the second screw (inside rampanel) keyboard for some reason any would not budge. Inaively just tried harder and stripped of the screw head almost completely. Online research proposed superglue to remove stripped screws. It wasn't near fort, and now I just a screw stripped slime sitting in my laptop I hate worse than the devil.

    What should I do? I'll take the ThinkPad to my SOUND Center schools tomorrow to see if they can remove.

    Please don't let not despair too early to try to remedy this situation.

    That your machine is under warranty, an unauthorized person to do something like drill listen to screw to get it (if it is even a viable option, as the screw is so small) and Mess Up could result in a voided warranty. FWIW, my advice, would be to call the Service of Lenovo and find out if there is an authorized service center near you. They are much more likely to have seen the question before, having the tools and the most important and necessary parts, be allowed to work on your pc.

  • Laptop HP 15 t-r160: could not get the replacement for Hp 15 laptop cover... URGH!

    I'm repplace the rear/top hood for a 15 HP laptop, model number 15 t-r160. It is blue. The customer has dropped and damaged about everything on the left rear corner (hinge, lcd screen, corner covers...) and the upper rear cover. The part # on the broken lid is 760966-001. I tried to order the part from 2 different places on eBay and both times they sent me the worng a 775084-001. These 2 numbers appear as the same party on several lists, but they are different. 775084 001 is not for the LCD screw holes. 760966-001. I can't find a place that recognizes / acknowledges the difference short of opening the box and observing. HP support has been absolutely NO HELP. Anyone know where I can order part # 760966-001 and get 760966-001? Thanks in advance for the help!

    Just an update. A seller from eBay, turbofly626, actually took the time to seek the cover of exact part 760966-001, and they had 1 available. They are sending me. All other replacement covers for this laptop 15 HP are the alternative part # 775084-001. And yet once that one will not work due to not having the screw for the LCD screen holes. HP and other vendors of parts must get this right. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but the model # of this Notebook of 15 special HP is HPt-r160. That's all! There is no NC, NA or SA at the end of the model number. What I found for the model r160 referred to one of the models in 3 sub (NC, NA or SA). Weird. Very frustrating!

    BIG thank you to those who have responded and have tried to help!

  • 15 G-212NL HP: HP 15G 212 BROKEN HINGE LAPTOP NL

    HI, the left hinge of the laptop of my girlfriend broke: it started with a gap between the bezel and the screen that does not have a link initially to the hinge. So I decided to remove the bezel of the screen to look underneath and I realized that the left hinge was broken and the plastic screw holes have been broken too and fell outside the coverage they were attached. I am sincerely disappointed by that because the laptop is immaculate and has never fall on the floor or something like that. The laptop is 6 months and still covered by the warranty.

    Could you please tell me if I can get the phone repaired? also? the laptop was purchased in Italy and my girlfriend is currently living in the United Kingdom.

    Please let me know

    Thank you very much

  • Installation upgrade memory in the new laptop (E8730w)

    I just got my new laptop and was dismayed to see that I obviously have to install the 2 GB memory upgrade that I ordered.  When I'm ready to install it, I will contact HP technical support.  I'm interested in the big picture right now.  The laptop has installed Windows Xp and Vista, stored on the hard drive.  No matter if I use the new laptop for, say, from the user's manual before as I have added additional memory, or is it better not to use the laptop until I have all of the memory (2 GB original and 2 GB upgrade) in place.  I hope that this process will be no more complicated than to install an ethernet card in a years office 5 or 6.  Where can I get good screwdriver to open the module compartment memory?  From my experience, it is easy band, the head of a screw phillips, especially a small head, if there is no appropriate screwdriver.  I'd appreciate any idea on these issues.

    I don't think that no matter how long you use it before you install the memory. Regarding the screwdriver, I use a 41678 artisan to work on laptops with screws Phillips. It could cost $ 1.69 at any Sears and any tech tools for perhaps $15 will be a very similar small Phillips. You will know if you are stripping it, so stop everything. Memory installation is much easier than to put a PCI on a desk. Relax its all good.

  • Can't separate the top cover to the base/motherboard to replace the RTC battery on laptop ZD8080US

    I am trying to replace the RTC on a Pavillion ZD8080US battery.  I proceeded with disassembly in step 11, page 5-33 Maintenanceand Service of Guide.  I am now unable to separate the top cover from the rest of the laptop.

    I can get the left side of the image of the base but even with what appears to be excessive force that I can't get the right separate about 1/4 "without making me concerned that I'll break the cover.   (The right side of the cover is folded about 10 degrees when I'm trying to force it).  I tried some jiggling and a few twists to see if that would open invisible conflicts but with no luck.  I used the tree of a screwdriver between the parties to try to increase the force.  All to nothing does not.

    Coverage seems to be stuck/attached to a 4 "- 5" to the top on the right side.  It acts like a screw that has not been removed.  I don't see anything when I peer into the hole when the two parties are discarded.  Is there any adhesive which can be between the parties on the right side?

    I examined the process of dismantling four times.  I counted the screws that came out.  I revamped to all the screw holes in the drawings and made sure there is no screws in the holes.

    Am I missing something?  Is there a step or a comment has been omitted in the text?  Is there a screw hidden under the model or label of Windows?  Is there one thing that others have found to accomplish this separation?

    I appreciate any help I can get.

    Thanks in advance.

    After watching the video, it looks like you missed a few screws. (certainly enough of them _ typical HP)  HP laptops must be 'broken' even if all the screws have been removed, but yours seems to just raise, so it seems that you missed a few screws.

  • Solid State Drive for Alienware 17 R2 m2 screws (2015)

    I recently bought a (Crucial) M.2 SSD for my laptop from Alienware R2 17.  The screws needed to secure the SSD for laptop is not provided, nor were they included with the laptop.  It takes a very small screw with a diameter of about 1 millimeter screw hole.

    Does anyone have any info as to the exact size and a source for obtaining this screw?

    Thank you.

    I went to Ace hardware and bought a M2, it was too long, but I was able to do the following.

    1: bought a few M2 s c r e w s (approximately 1 cm length) (sorry, dell is filtering the word s c r e w)

    2: bought 2 nuts to go on the s c r e w, when the two nuts are on the way, it is equivalent to about 3 mm long

    3: used pliers and a dremmel to compress the excess length off the coast of the s c r e w, then fact market back nuts to screw even if all threads have been affected.

    It worked for me, fit perfectly in the m2 s c r e w holes to fix the disks. Cost about $ 1.99.

  • HP S2031 20 "monitor I want to mount on the wall. What size screws to mount?

    I have a monitor HP S2031 I want to mount on the wall.  What size screws I put in the monitor to attach it to the media.

    Thank you!

    Sandy59

    The series of HP products that monitor your S2031 comes from States, "this monitor uses the compatible VESA 100 x 100 mm installation ports." This means that there should be 4 screw holes, square shaped, at the back of the monitor to 3-15/16 inch independently of the other. In the monitor screw holes should have metric threads ISO "M4" and are typically 10 mm deep. The appropriate screws (usually 10mm shorter or longer) are normally provided with the stand.

  • Compatibility hard drive in an HP Pavilion laptop

    I have a

    HP Pavilion dv6 notebook

    (Product no. LT070AV)

    running

    Windows 7 Professional

    with a

    Samsung HM640JJ

    hard drive that begins to fail (it doesn't have the test car).

    Because I am concerned about the reliability of the Samsung, I would replace it with a

    Western Digital Scorpio Black WD7500BPKT.

    This would be likely to cause compatibility issues?

    As far as I know, the WD drive is Samsung. Both drives have the 2 ½ in. form factor and a height of 9.5 mm, SATA 3 Gb/s interface and a rotation speed of 7200 RPM. Photos on the Internet, it seems that the cable connectors and the screw holes are similar, and I think these are probably standardized. The Samsung is the WD 750 GB and 640 GB. The biggest difference I can find is that the Samsung has sectors of 512 bytes and the WD 4 K sectors, but based on what I read this should not be a problem because I am running Windows 7 and 4 K sector drives imitate readers of sector of 512 bytes for backward compatibility.

    Thanks to all who can help you with this issue of compatibility.

  • Laptop hibernate instead of sleep

    I have same messages on this issue and tried several things to solve this problem. But I have in vain.
    When I put my laptop to sleep he wakes up with resumption of the quote of windows on the screen. In addition, there are even more time standard hibernate wake. Even the mouse stops working for a while because of hostprocesses for windows will overload. Moreover, I found my cell phone that works in my bag because he couldn't go to Hibernate (powercfg-h off), so it's just vacumed the dust inside my bag for several hours. Sometimes I find my laptop stripped of all power, so I guess it ran for a few hours before it colapsed.

    I tried these.
    powercfg-h off
    advanced power settings changing (hibernate off) power management
    reset the startup in msconfig

    What I did before this problem.
    definition of 4 cores in msconfig to 'boost' boot
    Instaled updates several packs (about 14 days years updated win update containing approximately 40 + updated) last month (early September)

    I advise my clients to restrict the functions of hibernation / sleep for use only in absolutely necessary circumstances.  It is often problematic and rarely ever fixed.  Myriad of causes that you can spend weeks trying to find.  Just not worth it.

    Reminder: The extended notion of sleep/wake is designed to extend the life of the battery.  If you are not running on a battery, or never go, the idea is quite useless.  If you do because your computer takes a long time to startup, solve this problem.  Under normal circumstances if you are finished using the computer and you do not plan to use it again for at least several hours, stop it.  Leaving to run continuously is a sure way to shorten the life of your computer

    You can change how these functions behave here:

    1. Start the globe
    2. Type power options in the text box that appears
    3. Desktop computers:
    4. All the features of Hibernate / sleep the NEVER value
    5. Laptops:
    6. Yet once, define all the functions of hibernation / sleep FOREVER, EXCEPT when it is powered by batteries.
    7. In addition:
    8. In the Power Options window, click on change power settings
    9. Change advanced power settings
    10. Put the hard drive stops after 20 minutes of inactivity
    11. Under the previous day, several parameters:

I would like to insert an additional SSD and possibly another 8 GB of RAM if it is possible.

    Thanks in advance.

    You have a SATA 2.5 inch hard drive installed. See the '1' which is an open RAM slot and '2' is a slot of free RAM and the thing across left to right the image just above the '1' is a connector m2 on the left with the operation of the screw holes on the right. You can put one of them in this niche, and it will be a hard drive.

    Then remove the screw Combo Module 1. Remove the door from the ram.
    Remove the screw Combo Module (m2, 5 + 18FP) in now the Combo Module in place.
    Pull on the Combo Module FPC Connector.
    Then the Module Combo will be fired, you can easily out entirely easily Module Combo
