Pavilion DV7t - 4100 CTO with a white screen

My laptop has a blank screen, but I can see the desktop via an external monitor.  I have not dropped it so I want to see if there is perhaps a cable connecting the screen LCD, but have no idea how to do to remove the cover.  Any suggestions?  I am currently on a trip to Central Asia and can not get the service for it, but I'm pretty handy if I understand just the thing to open the lid.  Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

If you can see the normal desktop with an external then post it mght be a loose connector or a liquid crystal display has failed.

To access the connectors to display that you will need to remove the keyboard and the upper part of the envelope that the keyboard is connected.

There is no need to try and remove the cover of the display.

  • HP Pavilion dv7t-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC Hard Drive replacement

    Hello

    I have HP Pavilion dv7t-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC, and I had problems with hard disk of the guarantee period. for example I buy in 2010 and had a hard drive replaced in 2011 and 2012. Next time, he failed in 2013 (almost 11 months apart on average).

    The last time it failed, the warranty has expired so I thought to give it a try as employment through fixing/amortization of bad sector seagate software, Toshiba... that came out of Smart Drive Error.

    I use the HARD drive for some time now, but want to be ready for the next round and I don't know that he's going to be gone for good next time.

    Current HARD disk is 640 GB, 7200 RPM hard drive (replaced in 2012). HP 621046-001 manufacturer.

    When replacing, can I use ANY hard drive 640 GB? Can I use a hard drive that is higher than 640 GB? Different RPM?

    Any suggestions on hard drive?

    The recovery discs I had received with the replacement drive did not work properly. I had to use the first game I had created just after I bought the laptop.

    Thank you.

    I think that 160GB 2.5 "SATA III SSD is good for the system.

    Thank you

  • Pavilion dv7t-4100: Pavilion dv7t-4100 came with 90W Adapter, but says HP 65W Web site

    Section of the HP website 'find the right battery or an adapter for your laptop' lists only 65W smart or slim adapter for my Pavilion dv7t-4100, so I ordered the 65W.  But when it happened and I realized that it was smaller than my existing adapter (which has suddenly stopped working), I took a thorough (literally with a magnifying glass) and that he realized was the adapter supplied with the 90W laptop.  I was initially planned a larger than necessary adapter or HP wrong customers?  The adapter I ordered lists this model as being compatible with it.

    Hello

    It's true, when you connect AC and run games you need 90W or even more. The following list shows the 3 types of adapters that fit to your machine (and many more parts for your machine):

    http://PartSurfer.HP.com/search.aspx?SearchText=WW191AV

    (You can bookmark this page).

    My suggestion: If you are happy with the 65W charger then keep otherwise, use the right piece to get a 90W or same 120W (much heavier).

    Kind regards.

  • 2nd hard drive for HP Pavilion dv7t-4000 CTO Notebook - what do I need?

    Hi, I have the HP Pavilion dv7t-4000 CTO Select Edition Entertainment Notebook (product # WV703AV). It can accommodate two hard disks but only came with one. What would need to be able to install the second hard drive? I need just a connecting cable or I also need to caddy or kit?

    Also, would I get a solid state? My laptop that would support or should I just use regular?

    Currently, I am on Windows 7 64-bit. I have a 500 GB hd (which came to be partitioned with hp tools/restoration).

    Help with what I would need to a conventional hard drive or ssd would be greatly appreciated. I tried to look through messages of others first, but could not find anything specific to my model. Thanks for your time!

    Hello:

    The only place I know where you can get a 2nd hard drive kit is that provider.

    http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?Main_Page=product_info&products_id=345

    Your laptop should be able to work with an SSD, but I can't guarantee it.

    I don't really see any point in adding an SSD unless you make the main hard drive, and to do this, you must get an SSD of the same size as the original 500 GB hard drive to use the recovery discs to reinstall the operating system.

    Most people get smaller SSD and they use the W7 product key to activate a simple installation of W7.

    If you can read all 25 characters of your product key for windows 7, you can do your own installation media and allows to install Windows on a smaller than 500 GB SSD.

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. The link below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://download.CNET.com/Windows-7-USB-DVD-download-tool/3000-18513_4-10972600.html

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • Pavilion dv7t-6100-cto-quad: I can't get the new drivers on the hp support site

    I have restored my ssd from disks that I made the computer when I bought it and I did everything I know to do and can not get the hp support site to give me a list of drivers for that computer. I know there must be some updated drivers for the computer 3 years, but I don't know how to get them and it is interfiering with other programs or drivers that need updated drivers that I can't. Please help me with this. I learned that the site is in place and current, but it does not work as far as I can tell, for my portable quad, dv7t-6100 cto. Everything continues to run and never becomes pilots. Thanks for any help in getting this resolved.

    It's somewhat austere course - this isn't the site of HP, so you won't see the full Support pages of manuals, operating instructions and troubleshooting.

    I checked the other models - those I previously checked watch this site matches the drivers supplied by HP for the model and the version of the OS.

  • HP Pavilion dv7t-7000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC - Upgrade processor

    Hello

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I have a HP Pavilion dv7t-7000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC.  Due to a new job, I need to update my processor of the current 2.30 GHz (see exact specifications below, please) of at least 3.0 GHz.

    Is there a processor 3.0 GHz there that is compatible with this particular computer? I called tech support and they told me they don't know. I don't know who else to ask.

    This computer was purchased just a few months ago (before I got the new job). I really don't buy a new computer, if possible, if I can upgrade the processor in it.

    Here are the current processor specifications:

    Intel Core i7 3610QM
    Codename Ivy Bridge
    RPGA Socket 988 B package
    The 22nm technology
    Specification Intel Core i7-3610QM CPU @ 2.30 GHz

    Thanks in advance.

    Well, it seems that one (that I found) 3.0 GHz processor that Intel made for my chipset (HM77 Express Chipset) and it's the Extreme edition i7-3940XM (http://ark.intel.com/products/71096/)

    Priced at $1,000 +, it looks like I'll be shopping for a new computer.

    Don't know if anyone from HP read the peer forums, however, I won't buy another HP product.

    This machine had problems outside of me needing to upgrade the processor for my own personal reasons. Your support is grossly lack in all areas even pull your techscannot model with the serial number.

    Visitors should not go out on the Internet for questions of research like this.

  • HP Pavilion dv6000 (Vista) starts with a blank screen with a cursor after the original hp logo screen.

    HP Pavilion dv6000 (Vista) starts with a blank screen with a cursor after the original hp logo screen.  Cannot get it to boot Windows.  Any thoughts on next steps?

    I remove the hard drive and attach it to your desktop and use the host operating system to run a check disk on your drive.  The laptop goes hard disk looking for instructions to start and he does not see the correct code.  This is probably due to a damaged boot sector.  Another idea is that your bios has changed and you have changed the SATA from AHCI to IDE type somehow or vice versa. You also left a non bootable disk in the DVD/CD drive.  Remove all disks from your DVD.

  • When I turn on the computer, it does not show my office. It comes up with a white screen

    Original title: bad start.

    On May 15, 2013, I was prompted to download 8 updates from Microsoft. Since then when I turn on the computer, it does not show my office. It comes with a white screen. The only way to see the desktop is at the stop 'wrong' to turn off the power to the computer. Then I reboot, it just asking if I want to boot up normally, I say Yes and all is well on the office. Seems related to downloads of May 15, 2013. Any ideas?

    Hello

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to select last known good Configuration in Windows Advanced options and check if it works.

    To do this:

    a. restart the computer and press the F8 key for about four to five times.

    b. you will see the that last known good Configuration in the Advanced Windows options.

    c. Select last known good Configuration and press enter.

    Method 2:

    See the article and check if that helps:

    What to do if Windows does not start correctly

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-to-do-if-Windows-wont-start-correctly

    For more protection, use System Restore backup and restore, which is designed to help save email, photos, documents and other personal files.

    Note: when checking your drive hard for errors, if bad sectors are found, it tries to repair this sector and if all the available data may be lost.

    Both modules can be used. DDR3L means that memory using low voltage. Means that the modules produce less heat and last longer than DDR3 pure ones. I always use 1600 MHz CL9 DDR3 Corsair pure modules.

    From time to time my old Pavilion of 2 years with an AMD Radeon 7070 graphics card will start at a white screen and will continue to restart over and over again until I have pull the plug. Apart from that, a mess the PC works fine!

    How I managed to do it starting right now has been by reinstalling the video card and removing the battery on the motherboard for a few seconds. Is this common? What exactly is causing this problem?  HP Tech offers no answers whenever I call them?

    Hi bigollo, sometimes the bios gets into a loop and the solution is what you've done, remove the battery from the motherboard is reset the settings, you have to return your graphics card? fact the pc works fine now?, thanks, Adi.

    If you try a safe boot, just hold SHIFT when the computer comes on, not Command-Shift.

    In addition, if you can get to the login screen, try to hold SHIFT while you connect to your account (not while you type, but when you have finished your password and immediately after pressing enter/return).
