Pavilion s5120f: replace both?

States hard disk failure is imminent; a few times a day fan will go into overdrive & be strong. Now whenever I use it just the fan stays on; When I turned off the computer, it will be on for more than 24 hours but I'm able to reboot without problems. Need to replace hard drive & fan or just the player? Thank you!

The warning of imminent hard drive failure must be supported.  First of all, stop using the computer until the drive is replaced.  Because it always seems to work, it can be copied to the new drive and all currently on the old drive will be moved to the new drive.  Which is completed, and everything is then 'go into overdrive & be strong' fan should found and corrected.  Many times this condition is due to dirt and dust clogging the cooling.  Since it is an old computer - 2009 - this is a likely cause.

    Yes, sorry... met the same problem when my HP 8500 all in one printer has failed.  HP wouldn't y touch, or someone else - because they said HP would be would not send the parts.

    Your only option at this point is to see if you can find a local PC repair shop that will work on it.

  • HP Pavilion dv6636nr - replacement motherboard

    OK, so I'm trying to repair this laptop.  More than 2 years old, 1 year warranty has expired.

    I think the motherboard is out.   I need to find the mother card to replace it with exact and how to order.

    HP Pavilion dv6636nr.

    Care can be found here: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01163897

    On a side note, I believe that it is the motherboard.  The laptop does not start everything simply.

    I first tried a soft reboot.  I took the battery and the cable unplugged from the wall and left for an hour.  After that replacement still does not work.  When the cable is connected the led on the side of the laptop because of the power, but nothing happens when you press the power button.  Tells me he is on, but isn't just the start.  I have another version of this laptop I'm testing these parts.  The battery works, power cable works, both ram sticks (2 GB each) work, the inverter Board, hard drive, all work.

    I am sure that there is nothing to test, and I just need to replace the motherboard.  Yet once, when you try to start, the hard drive is not even tried to turn, fans turn at all, no. led to appear (except one on the port where the power cable is plugged in, which is NOT let go).  BIOS / POST screen does not appear.  Absolutely nothing happens when you press the power button / stop (Yes, I checked the connection.  Seems very solid).

    I just replaced one myself. You should be able to find one on ebay. I wouldn't pay HP inflated the price of one.

  • HP Pavilion G6: replacement hard drive on hp pavilion g6

    Im trying to replace a hard drive on a HP pavilion G6 model number is G6 2239dx so I looked hard drives compatible with this model number that I did not buy directly from HP for a heavy sum. I found the other G6 drives with different model numbers, now I know that I certainly need the model number to order the Pack recovery but on the hard drive. It is somehow specific model number or can I use a hard drive from a 1B79dx of G6 G6 model number or any other g6 also. I'm new on this and do not want to buy something I can't use and have not been able to find clear information, I'm looking for. Any help is appreciated!

    Hello

    Basically you can use any standard laptop HARD drive. But please use Hitachi or Toshiba. HP machines use Toshiba HDD much. You don't need special HARD drive to your machine.

Check the disk with CrystalDiskInfo told me he had a problem with the reallocated sectors count & number of events of reallocation (with the values 1, 1, 36).

    2. my HP Pavilion s5715 does support the new internal hard drive?

    A power supply does not provide as much energy it takes to power the computer correctly.  Therefore, the additional power is there for the needs of advanced.  The difference in intensity is not a problem.

  • Pavilion G6: Replace fan on Pavilion

    I realize this is probably a general 'fault' with most laptops, but why the hell don't manufacturers build their machines with fans that are accessible, like all hard drives seem to be. Moving parts are obviously more likely to wear or fail over time and, as far as I can see, there are two types in a laptop, the HARD drive and fan.
    Replace a HARD drive can be done in an hour or two (eg. On a G6 Pavilion, it requires the removal of two screws and careful replacement) but to replace a cooling fan, we're looking for a good ten or twelve hours (eg. On a G6 Pavilion on the only part that doesn't have to be physically removed and put in the back is the screen, I lost count of the number of screws).
    With repair shops charge as much as £80 per hour that it's cheaper to buy a new machine that pay for a piece of a £20 replaced. I suspect that there is a general scheme by all manufacturers to ensure that their customers replace their machines after expiration of the warranty, rather that attempt to repair a machine that works perfectly but needs only a 4oz part replaced for another couple of use of it.

    Thought so, just be a bit lazy, I guess.
    Want to do things (and do it myself), some pride self creeping in.
    Thanks for your comments.

  • Example: Pavilion a230n: replace the CD rom drive in Hp Pavilion a230n

    I just saved a Paviliona230n to a sad end. He dumped the parts of the body, but I had an old Millennium that I could upgrade to XP or higher. I put two Cd-rom drives in and may not know how to do it without removing the AMD CPU and fan - something I am unwilling to do without instructions.

    Are they cut down and how I unplug safely so I can insert the CD rom drives.

    I guess I'd the drive readable than plugging in the cable (top) master and the rewritable as the slave.  OR?

    I think I already exaggerated the bit of memory because the machine seems to have an a GB of memory and I put both of them in. Seems to work.

    Then I need to get drivers especially for the ethernet connection.

    More important is the method to remove the block of memory to AMD. Of course, I don't want to mess that up.

    Just for interest: the hard drive with the millennial system OP is flaky. I think it was the program, but when I tried to install XP as an 'upgrade' (to save the programs and files) it has failed twice. Only when I did a full install worked.

    Then I'll have to check the integrity of the player itself and I doubt that my disk wipe dbam (boot and nuke) work on it. He also did a great job on checking the hard drive before installing anything. It was not recognized by Millennium.

    TIA

    If you have questions of factory with that I could repay your answer please visit http://sequimplants.com/

    I also have a blog, google more on plants. The plants were at the beginning of this need to find a computer equipped with a 3.5 inch diskettes. Years ago I had an excellent program of Gardenware (plus 250.00) to create labels. I made a library of 600 point of my plants with descriptions.

    Win 3.1 now. I can't even install it again because it is the innovative and he needs a key to unlocking that the company no longer for older versions. Nothing else can read or open the backup disk library... so I downloaded a Viewer freefile and hope that it will work on this subject. I hope on the XP version. If this isn't the case, I'll have to install a floppy drive on one of my computers in Win 7.

    I found this to be beyond comprehension. If you're selling a car, you have to keep the parts for it. I don't see that the developer of this program may not have kept the unlock codes for all older versions. Certainly don't makes me want to buy their NEW release for 199.00.

    If this Viewer freefile unfold all I can do is get a mobile 3.5 floppy drive with a USB port and plug it into another computer of Nurserymans to see if the new version can read.

    Herb, welcome to the forum.

    Here are the sections adding/replacing hardware on the computer.  You should be able to use the replacement of a section of the CD/DVD drive for you help with your problem.  In this section, there is a guide for the replacement of each component.  Also, here is the page of the mother card .  It shows that the maximum memory is 2 GB.

  • Pavilion dm4, replacing hard drive

    So, I have a HP Pavilion dm4 1165 c: windows 7 64 bit, around a Yes and a half old.

    A week before, the hard drive suffered a kind of permanent fatal event and quietly left this death spiral.  If you want to know: any type of shoe was impossible.  System recovery could not even see the drive, an external drive could not speak of it, and it crashed to any machine that has tried.  I had to send it to data recovery - they tell me that the reader has hard errors and at least one of the drive heads does not.  They will be able to pick up stuff for me, but the reader is a loss (yes I know, I know - I should have backed up).

    So in my opinion it - I have two problems to solve.  1. I need a new hard drive.  2 - I need stuff to put on my hard drive (it came with nothing - I don't have the disc for the operating system, drivers, nothing).  That offer HP which determination of these problems?  How much are these options?  Who should I talk to?  (I tried to call tech support, but there was a bit of a language barrier.  Also, I'm out of warranty, and they want $60 to solve problems before they'll still talk about replacement of hardware and/or software).

    Hello:

    You can order a 500 GB hard drive 7 200 to replace your existing one.  You can't go smaller if you want to use recovery disks.

    I love this place to order PC hardware.

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/ProductList.aspx?submit=Ene&N=100007605%20600030594&IsNodeId=1&BOP=and&order=rating&PageSize=20

    I'd go with the first listed, but it is up to you. Look at the reviews and the price and choose the one that suits you best.

    You can order HP recovery discs. You will need to call them as the link to the website to order them is broken.  Cost should be less than $20.00

    You will need the complete model number of your PC. I do not see a dm4 - 1165dm.  I see a dm4 - 1165dx, and you will need to provide the serial number.

    If HP has a set of recovery disc for your PC, you can use this workaround to install W7 on your new HARD drive.

    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.

    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 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...

    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.
