• HP Pavilion Dv7-4285dx Entertainment computer laptop Wont stay turned on

  Alrighty this is one video of my HP Pavilion Dv7 - 4285dx Entertainment Notebook Wont work video. Basically, I can't understand what was lacking on this wise material issue (and if its even possible to distance just buy a spare part) or so badly need to buy a whole new computer altogether. Already have a portable game, but I'd rather have this laptop specifically for the armed forces when were allowed to use our computers civi make calculation on projects say. Any viable solution to possibly rebuild the machine, tell buy spare parts would be epic, but I can't determine what is the problem with it on my own.

  It may make more sense to look at the video that I can show what the machine is doing when I try to use it. Video--> http://youtu.be/KO4LAP2mJNM

  He's fine, the jist is that the machine is not turned on. The power LED flashes quickly, the F12 key light flashes quickly, light flickers hard drive read/write and the power on the portion sparkles. Also the battery is removed the iron on if this is a battery issue, I've already pulled out it is not not a bad adapter block. Regarding the power light, it's a constant light to solid white'.

  Someone at - it ideas?

  I understand that the system is off almost instantly after having turned it on.

  Based on the symptoms and the video, it looks like the motherboard has failed.  There are only so many components that can cause this problem.  The battery and Charger AC/DC have been rejected.  The laptop seems to receive a continuous power supply because the light stays on.  You could try reinstalling the RAM it could be just loose enough to trigger a security breach.  I doubt that is the case since that RAM in laptop computers is guaranteed to be generally quite good.  The disk HARD and WLAN module would not cause these symptoms.

  I know that's not the answer you are looking for, but the symptoms do not match that of a failed motherboard.  You could look into this and compare it to the costs and benefits of a new laptop.  Page 84 0f this guide details what is to replace the motherboard.  According to this, the part of HP for the motherboard number is 630985-001.  You might look online to see what the cost of a motherboard to a site selling online because it does not appear that HP is available.  You can can try the HP parts store because it is more recent than the surfing part.

  In most cases, the benefits of a new system outweigh the costs and the benefits to repair an old.  However, third-party sites can carry enough good parts markets to switch the balance.

• Add internal bluetooth adapter for HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx?

  Hello, I have a HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx and I was wondering if it would be possible to make my laptop bluetooth capable and if yes, what cards are compatible? I was able to add maps to other laptops (mainly Dell) and during the surching for a repair guide and my one dismantle, so maybe one of these it may be, I found some empty connectors. The guides I found was not clear about a module for my model. I was also trying to find the model of increased mine which would map already in it, but no luck. Any one out there able to help out me? I want to continue to use my mouse bluetooth and headset.

  It is one of the guides that I thought would help but on 87, he talks about model dv7-40XX using the 537921-001. I'm looking on the wrong page? When I tried to talk to HP they kept giving me the run around and wouldn't even tell me if it was possible to add bluetooth to it.

  Don't worry about this. Take a look at page 1 and the "Product Description". Dv7-4000 is said by Dv7-4299. This is why it says on page 87 Dv7-40XX because it was intended for all the notebook Dv7-4XXX mentioned in the Product Description. I guess that all laptops Intel in the series use the same motherboard, so the required location for the bluetooth module should be there...

• Pavilion dv7-4285dx: cannot BOOT/POST/VGA external and internal LCD is dead (cracked)

  I cracked the screen of my HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx so bad that I can't read anything on the subject. I'm trying to start to an external monitor to the VGA port, but never to get a signal.

  I tried the key switch monitor, but that does nothing. I tried to unplug the LCD internal of the motherboard - not different. I tried a CMOS reset by removing the laptop battery, remove the CMOS battery, cut the power and hold the power button / stop for > 1 minute, then by restarting with external LCD just attached, but STILL no video on the VGA port.

  The video card is OK, because it starts with Windows and then I have the video on the external monitor.

  Although it is good that I can use the monitor to post once Windows starts, I need to have the video when the BIOS starts to change.

  Does anyone have another suggestion how I can get the BIOS to detect and display external VGA at boot time?

  Hello

  Please help me find the driver for BCM20702A0 for hp pavilion dv7-4285dx for windows 7.

  I'm going to each site, trying to find a driver for BCM20702A0 because I tried to install a 4 (badge) bluetooth dongle on my laptop but it says 'impossible to update software' when I try to run the installer from the manufacturer's website. Then, I go to devices and printers and try to solve the problem with the bluetooth dongle and it says "BCM20702A0 is not a driver" I tried to download broadcom and updated centrino HP network driver for my laptop page up-to-date, but that does not solve the problem. All these other drivers that I find are for other computers laptops and even still, I can't navigate to links posted on this site, it brings me right back to the search page.

  Thank you

  Alex

  Hi @LaurieJC ,

  Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

  I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx Notebook and want to improve the hard. Here is a link to your service manual page 48 for Hard drive specifications. I checked on the possibility of installing 1 TB and it shows me if you keep to 1 TB 2.5 internal SSD SATA 6.0 GB/s • 555 MB/sec in reading, 500 MB/s write plug, you'll be fine.

  I hope that this address your concerns.

  Thank you.

• Pavilion dv7-4285dx hard drive

  The hard drive on 2 years, Pavilion dv7-4285dx of my son is dead. It's a Samsung HM641JI, 640 GB, 5400 RPM. can anyone recommend a good replacement for this notebook drive? The new drive can we (GB) smaller than the original? Should I just stick with the same Samsung drive? Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you.
  PS - I use the recovery discs just purchased from HP to restore the new drive.

  Hello

  You can use standard HDD from other providers. Nowadays people need more space, go for a larger HARD drive, it's a wise move. The recovery disc may not install on a smaller HARD disk because it will put your machine back to the factory settings.

  Kind regards.

• HP Pavilion DV7 turns off suddenly when running

  I sincerely hope that you can help me or point me please in the direction from where can I get support for this problem.

  I bought a HP Pavilion DV7 - 3180us Entertainment Notebook to the United States in 2010.  I now live in England.

  My problem is that my laptop keeps turning off randomly without warning.

  Is my product number: WA718UA #ABA, my OS is Windows 7 64 bit.

  I ran each test component (HP System Diagnostics), all items sent with the exception of the hard.

  My test log shows the following error codes:

  PLQ36M-53L6M6-XD002J-Q2BX03

  PLQ36M-53L6M6-XD002J-61BK03

  PLQ36M-53L6M6-XD002J-61TT03

  PLQ36M-53L6M6-XD002J-61TT03

  PLQ36M-53L6M6-XD002J-60 CT 03

  My BIOS:

  F.1D, 10/05/2010

  I bought and tried a new battery, but this does not resolve the issue.

  (Any time), I use a Cooler Master NotePal U3 Laptop Cooler with fans positioned where my laptop gets hotter (down the laptop, when the laptop is in its normal in good position, the hot zone going from the upper left corner (about where is the power button), to down to about the caps lock key; the width of the side left on the F3 key). (This also does not resolve the issue.)

  I'm looking forward to your reply.

  Finally got support from HP (for some reason, my phone and my other half phone just kept to end the call when I tried to call, even if we had enough credit, could finally operate using Skype as Skype allows free 1-800 numbers even if you use Skype from the United Kingdom).

  In case it helps someone else out there he said:

  Only the fact that I have recently updated my BIOS would help with overheating problems. Any overheating problems that I knew could not be due to (for example) the motherboard or graphics card, etc. That it may be wise to have my radiator and fan replaced.

  Mainly: (no surprises) should I have my hard drive replaced ($155 - $200).

  For a person living in the United States the total costs (disk hard, heat sink and fan) would be $ 200 to $ 300 (cost of labor and shipping included).

• HP Pavilion dv7-6b32us fan hums when fast running

  I have a HP Pavilion dv7-6b32us and within these last few months my laptop heats up enough easy and when the fan starts very quickly it will sound and it vibrates enough that I can feel it a little bit in the top left area of the laptop, the only way it stops is if I type this field quite difficult. I guess this means that bearings or something on the fan are slaughtered, and it must be replaced. I tried to clean the area fan of the best that I can (if there ever a lot of dust on the inside), but if I remember the last time I took apart, I can't make it very easily without removing the motherboard, so I have to clean the fan with the lid on. Is there a way to solve this problem, or if not, where can I get a new fan?

  Hello

  Take a look at the service guide.

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c03043778.PDF

  Your laptop must have a shared program Intel 3000 then choose the heatsink / fan for Intel UMA memory:

• HP Pavilion dv7 - 6123cl and cool sense do not install

  I've updated the HP Wizard and one of the items listed was an update for HP Cool sense.

  I downloaded the file and installed.  No icon snowflake below on the right.

  I went to start and typed way Cool HP in the search programs and files.  No snowflake icon.  There is an entry at the top listed under programs, so I clicked that.

  Now what?

  I hope it works. 3rd post down from @Rylynx has a suggestion here. It has restored its HP Support Assistant to make it work again: HP Coolsense
  
  If this does not work, you may need to perform a full restore of the HP.

• Pavilion dv7, tpm chip enable - not-possible or not?

  HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx laptop. This laptop has TPM or not? bought this machine about a year ago. didn't want to turn on Bitlocker and Bitlocker-to-go at the time I intend to upgrade to win 7 ultimate/Enterprise.

  When I got to the hardening of the BONES, I checked the BIOS - but could not find the option to turn on the TPM. I read many pages of documents to support, so far have not found any mention of TPM being on the MB. I'm seriously believe that it wasn't an installed feature.

  Normally the TPM is not installed in the notebook computer or consumer

  This feature is part of the PC company the of except in the two countries where it is illegal to have RPM installed on a PC.

• Pavilion dv7: has no DST

  HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx laptop

  Operating system Windows 7 starts from correct shutdown state, but if you try a simple reboot, it will perform a test drive hard disk hard error - please run in sys diag F2. In the diagnostics screen, if I touch pwr down then again, she starts without a problem. DST short: failure FAILURE ID: RLXLRD-5HU7S7-XD0141 - 60T 203 product ID: XZ029UA #ABA

  Thank you in advance,

  Mike

  DST: Fail indicates the hard disk is defective and must be replaced. If you are still in warranty HP will send a replacement. If this is not the case, a mobile retail SATA hard drive can be used. Just be sure to get a quality at least equal the original in order to use recovery disks. It may be big, but not small ability more. For example if you have a 500 GB hard drive you can use a 750 GB hard drive, but not a 320 GB hard drive.
