Pavilion dv 7 4061 nr WQ871UA: want to replace hd

My son put in a 120 gig ssd when my orig hd failed, not realizing I had a recovery partition and needed a great dr. I would like to replace the original drive.but hard does not know that one was, a320 gig sata I think.will a portable hard drive 320 GB or more work to restore the initial state? I made my own recovery discs when I got the computer, and successfully restored a couple of times, but since my son in the ssd, I lost quite a few pilots who have been replaced by windows drivers and now did not bat Panel and a few other things I can't think at that time because he was out of use for 3 or 4 months looking for a base, bcause the hinge box it had broken. I want to use the ssd also but you need to know that if there is something special, when my son installed, and when I format it and use it as a backup of the dr or a separate dr for an os diff after I installed a big enough sata, I would have had to make. It ' a product of Pavilion dv 7 4061 WQ871UA #ABA nr

Your laptop takes in charge all the 9.5-mm/12.5-mm Serial ATA (SATA), drives of 6.35 cm (2, 50-inch).

I recommend using an SSD with a capacity at least 256 GB.

The price on them fell dramatically multi-year months 120. NewEgg.com.

A 120 GB SSD is not sufficient capacity to allow the use of the recovery media.

As long as the drive you are installing is at least 160 GB, you can use the recovery media to reinstall the original operating system and drivers.

  • want to replace the faulty wireless card in dv6

    Hello

    I want to replace the card wireless in my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook (product LK384PA #ABG number).

    I read somewhere (in a lot of places actually) that the BIOS will almost certainly turn off the map (may even refuse to system startup).

    My current faulty card is Intel Centrino Wireless - N 1000 (model 112BNHMW).

    Issues related to the:

    If I buy the same model of card off ebay - the bios will allow it? Or the card should be "tattooed HP?

    If I can't find a map tattooed HP on ebay - I'll be able to use a USB wireless card?

    TIA

    Hello:

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

    Cards supported with the corresponding reference numbers are in Chapter 3 begins on page 19.

    What you said is correct. You only NEED to install one of the maps in the maintenance manual and it MUST have this part number HP on it or it won't work at all.

    Laptop you don't POST until the unsupported card is removed.

    Make your request eBay only by the number of the desired part. Do not interview the model of the card.

    You can also get most of the HP maps (of course that you will probably pay more) on the site below.

    Enter the part number you want to buy. If this is not available, you can call HP and give them your model number and the wireless card you want and see if you can get it that way.

    Or you can use the PartsSurfer from HP:

    Yes, you can use a wireless USB adapter, but I recommend that go into your BIOS and disable the onboard or remove physically, if you never want to use again.

  • Trying to install the last download, my Mac application if I want to replace firefox with a version more OLD - have to - I do this?

    Firefox has informed me that he had downloaded an update. When I tried to install it, my iMac asked me if I wanted to replace an OLDER version of firefox. It was not not clear to me why he asked this. If this download is an updated version, why is detected by my computer as an "older version". ? And should I install? I can choose to replace the 'new' version, or keep both. What is the best? (Without unnecessarily using extra space).

    Thank you.

    Hello phkirby, please always try to download and install firefox from the official site, do the following:

    1. download a copy of the latest http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html firefox (full installer)

    2. Trash , install the current application of Firefox to do a cleaning.

    3. install the version you downloaded.

    Do not select to delete your personal data, your profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose your bookmarks or other personal data.

  • I want to replace the DVD-RAM UJ-846 for Qosmio G20-127

    I want to replace my carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ-846 of the G20-127.
    Someone knows his apare part # and any sugestion wich RAM is compactables for my machine and better plase to get?

    Hello!

    If you want to replace your CD/DVD drive, you should look in your user manual. It should be a list of compatible drives that work with Notepad. Check it!

    The new RAM should be a SO-DIMM DDR2-533. The part number for 1 GB is PA3411U-1M1G.

    Finally and most importantly the best place for spare parts is the authorized service provider. They order all the original parts of Toshiba and the Toshiba site, you can search for the closest.

    Good bye

    Hello

    Take a look at this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=41606

    Seems that you need a 2.5 IDE HARD drive.
    I think you can take a 120 GB HDD and the HDD should work properly.

    HARD drive Bay must be placed at the bottom of the unit.
    Its guarantee with a plastic cover and screw. Remove the screw, then cover in plastic and then you should be able to remove the HARD drive...
