Pavilion DV9000: Replacing the HARD drive

A non-techy question, so please bear with me.

I replaced the parts on my laptop several times, but it's certainly more complicated...

My old Pavilion DV9000 screen is dead... I can use it plugged into my TV or external monitor.

I see a number of old DV9 * * for sale on ebay for a lot cheaper then screen would repair on my old DV9000.

Pilot of the other then a few updates, would it plug-and-play to buy any old DV9 * and exchanging the HARD drive? Or is it more than that? If it's just some driver updates, how close the models do? DV9000 only? DV9330? Dv9700?... etc...

I just need to make sure that the 'new' computer has the same processor?

Or should I just PAP the idea?

You are the very welcome.

Sorry, it took so long for me to get back to you... we had a big storm last night and he knocked the cable for 10 hours.

OK, indeed, you have this model...

So, you want to get a model with an AMD processor and nVidia chipset.

Do not be any model is lower than a dv9500.

You can go all the way to a dv99xx, but make sure it has an AMD processor and nVidia chipset, and the hard drive in your machine should work OK.

The only thing you may need to do is install a different graphics and the wireless card driver, if you get is not an exact match.

    Hello

    This backup after pressing F11 is a HP backup option, not a Microsoft option.

    I suggest that you contact HP or ask their Support Forums.

    It's the normal advice I'd give to record data; but we have no idea of the State of your hard drive.

    Saving your files:

    You can remove the hard drive and put it in a hard drive USB enclosure > plug it into another computer > and try to read and copy your data in this way.

    Or, you can download Knoppix > make a bootdisk to > start your system with it (IF your material is all work) > and copy your data from the hard drive like that.

  • Pavilion dv6600ev: I would like to replace the HARD drive and the RAM in my HP laptop. I want to check compatibility

    Hello guys. I would like to replace the HARD drive and the RAM in my HP laptop. I would check the compatibility. For the momemt, I have 2 x 512 MB of RAM and a 160 GB HARD drive. Does anyone know the type of RAM (DDR1 or DDR2 most) and the accepted maximum capacity. Also the SATA port is a SATA I? Besides, I'm going to change the operating system (preferably in Win 7) so is there a driver?

    You can install DDR2-800 modules and they are the most widely available at this point, but the memory will run at 667 mhz speed.

    You can at any retail Branded 2.5 "SATA HDD 9.5 mm thickness, 1 TB will be OK - no problem with that.

    Looking at the Manual - Page 59-61, the replacement procedure is not just easy to him if you're not used to it, needs great disassembly & may void the warranty if you do it yourself if under warranty. You can Contact HP for this.

    This would be nice.

    HP would replace the HARD drive for free, if that came with the laptop failed in respect of the warranty period.

  • Replaced the hard drive - now screen Intel Rapid Storage Tech comes first?

    A couple of weeks ago, I replaced the hard drive in my laptop Pavilion dm4-3090se with a 240 GB Samsung SSD (the laptop came with a 500 GB Hybrid HDD which is now my backup).

    Everything works fine, except when I first put it in, I get the screen shown in the image below and it takes a good 5 or 6 seconds before it closes and opens Windows. How can I make this screen go away?

    You are running Windows 7 or Windows 8? I see that you still have the installed cache acceleration mSATA 32 gig drive and it has the Intel Rapid Storage, just off acceleration partition. Can you find the control panel Intel Rapid Storage and reformatting the drive to 32 gig Accelerator? It will look something like this:

    I suggest also just remove acceleration 32 gig of hard drive. You have really no more. You can not acclerate a SSD and shouldn't do anyway since having a main SSD is still faster than having the accelerator. See page 44 of the Manual:

  • Is it possible to replace the hard drive with an SSD? or would it be too expensive?

    Is it possible to replace the hard drive with an SSD?

    or would it be too expensive?

    Yes.  There are several alternatives.  I found a way relatively inexpensive, using a map of mSATA (very small SSD) and an adapter to connect it to the connector IDE 44 pin internal of my PowerBook.  It works very well.  Rather than repeat what I posted previously, you can watch these two topics (which also has good info, other users)

  • Problems with folder permissions after replacing the hard drive

    Hello

    Recently, I replaced the hard drive on my mac.  Already before the replacement, I got the files that I had locked.  Now I'm unable to open the file.  I get the error "the folder 'nom_de_dossier' can not be opened because you don't have permission to see its content".  I looked at the permissions for the folder and everything he says is fetch.  I ran a command in the Terminal and for one of the records in question, that's what I see-

    drwxr-x - 13 501 501 442 5 July 2013 MG

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Running OS X El Capitan

    10.11.4 version

    Try this first:

    Start the mac all holding the SHIFT key, it is slow, connection, and then select Restart from the Apple menu.

    When this does not help:

    Reset password utility in the recovery Partition:

    1. Restart your computer from the recovery partition.
    2. Open disk utility and run a repair permissions on your boot volume (in ElCapitan click the first aid tab). Once this completed, close disk utility. We do this for good measure.
    3. Open a Terminal from the Utilities menu. Type in resetpassword and select your user (NOT administrator system/root) account in the menu drop-down.
    4. Click on the Reset button at the bottom of the window ACL section and Reset the folder permissions.
    5. Exit the utility password and return to the main recovery menu.
    6. On your keyboard, press + Q and restart your computer. It is very important that you don't hold down the power button to exit the recovery session, or the ACL Reset to occur.
  • Replacing the hard drive on my Portege A200

    Hi, I would like to replace the hard drive in my a200 with a bigger, but I don't know how to remove the current, just wondering if any of you guys could help me?

    Thank you james

    Hello James

    Unfortunately the A200 does not for me, but the concept is still the same. At first check if you can find coverage of HARD drive in the lower corner of your unit. If you can't find it from the outside as it comes to the very complicated situation. It is possible that the HARD drive is under the keyboard.

    If you have not many don't experience do it alone, because you can damage something, and the guarantee is no longer valid.

    Good luck!

  • Equium A100-338, replacing the hard drive

    Hi, the hard drive from my Toshiba Equium A100-338 just broke down on me, and now I think to replace. Because I'm not good material, I thought I have ask for advice about it here first. Is this an easy repair that can be done on your own? If so, how can I know if my computer match which new hard drive? I know that I need a 2.5 inch Sata-150 and all that, but I'm not sure of the compatibility.

    In addition, it is worth the money to make repairs like this on such an old computer? I wouldn't throw it out when everything else seems to work very well.

  • Re: Tecra A9 - 11M - replace the HARD drive with a larger

    I have a Tecra A9 - 11 M with Windows XP Professional installed. I would like to replace the hard drive with a larger drive and install Windows 7 Professional.

    Any suggestions on recommended records say 500 MB?

    Difficulties to install Windows 7 on this model?

    Hey,.

    > Any suggestions on recommended records say 500 MB?
    I assume you mean 500 GB and not 500MB, right? ;)

    Well, the Tecra A9 already supports SATA interface and there is no limit of capacity on SATA interface, so you can install a 500 GB HARD drive or more (750 GB, etc.). Just make sure that it s 2.5 SATA HDD.

    You can choose each brand of HARD drive because each model will not work. You can buy a Toshiba HDD, Western Digital HARD drive or another. No problem ;)

  • Satellite L300-A13 - how to replace the HARD drive?

    I need to replace my drive hard because I got a disc error and I could hear noises from him. Someone knows the size of the current hard drive replace (either 3.5 SATA or whatever it is)?

    No space memory but actual size, so it can fit inside my computer and someone know a tutorial to replace by yourself?

    Hello

    To replace the HARD drive, you need a 2.5 HARD drive SATA interface. These 3.5 HARD drive you want to say are only for desktop PC s peut t used in laptops to buy a 2.5 so one.

    But it makes no difference which manufacturing you buy the HARD drive or the size. Just look for a 2.5 HARD drive SATA interface.

    Replace the drive is pretty easy: just remove the two screws on the underside of the cover of the HARD drive. You can exchange it.
    I know because I have the same laptop. ;)
