Replacement of keyboard G71 340US

Completely separate from my last question, I also decided to replace my keyboard like the wear on this one, it is impossible to read some of the labels on the keys now, not to mention the accidental loss of a key.  I could not figure out how to disconnect the current keyboard, or how to replace it with a new one.  I assume that meeting one of these challenges necessarily meets the other.  Can someone give me some advice on how to replace the keyboard?

I do not recommend using an electric screwdriver.

You accept all risk of damaging your laptop if you try this procedure.

  • G71 340US hard drive replacement/upgrade questions

    I have a hard drive that is dying a slow death.  Only, I ordered a new hard drive for this laptop update a few minutes previously, literally and noticed a difference on the product page of the etailer between the title of the HDD that I ordered and the specifications for it.  The title indicated that the replacement of the hard drive is a SATA 3.0, but the specs seem to indicate that the hard drive is a SATA 6.0.  After doing my research, I know that the G71 340US laptop comes with a SATA 3.0, so I know not, at the very least, it supports SATA 3.0.

    So here are my questions: the G71 340US laptop does support SATA 6.0?  If it isn't, the drivef that I just bought will be retro-compatible with this laptop?

    There is no such a thing, to date anyway, which is called SATA6.

    I guess you mean SATA600 instead.

    SATA600 is the same specification as SATA3. A hard drive of SATA600 is interchangeable with a disc spec SATA3.

  • HP laptop G71 - 340US SSD instead of the Original HARD disk replacement

    Looking for a replacement for an original HDD SSD in a laptop HP G71-340US.

    I am told that the interface in this laptop is a 3.0 GB/S (SATA II).

    What I am curious to know is whether or not improving impact of performance will be probably quite noticeable to replace the original HDD (standard) w/a SSD.  Just try to spend my money.

    Thanks in advance.

  • HP G71-340US recovery of the system using a new smaller hard drive (SSD)

    I replaced the hard drive on an HP G71-340US notebook with a Solid State Drive (240 GB).  The original drive (who did not) was a 320 GB drive.

    I tried to perform the Reovery of system using the recovery disks that I created when I bought the laptop.  However, the only option enabled when you are trying to restore is 'Factory Reset'.  When I choose this option, the recovery process may not continue his run as "... the hard drive of this computer is smaller than the original shipped hard disk.

    Is there a way I can go beyond that?  Any suggestions/help would be most appreciated!

    Thank you!

    HP System normal recoveries do not usually work on smaller hard disks. You may need to use a spinner legacy 320 GB hard drive and more capacity to perform the Factory image restore and then make a migration of data to the SSD. It is unfortunate that you chose to change for one SSD after the original spinner hard drive has failed.

    With SSDS, in particular the best method is to use a upgrade kit or data migration kit.

    A data migration kit consists of software cloning and a usb to SATA cable. The USB to SATA cable connect the SSD to the usb port of the laptop for the cloning process that is part of the migration of the data.

    The software provided by manufacturers such as Samsung and Corsair SSD are usually able to transfer all of the operating system and on a smaller hard disk partitions.

  • G71 340US system recovery fails

    One of my friends brought a G71-340US to me which was purchased at a pawn shop.  There was no password for a reload information was in order.  Software recovery was purchased which was a two disc picture refill set and a third CD containing the drivers and utilities.  Recharging began and I chose the path of destructive factory picture.  Recharge seemed to continue as expected using the first CD of the game.  When you are prompted to insert the second CD, the laptop has never recognized the insertion of the second CD.  The button 'Next' of radio would never go bold or respond to mouse clicks.  I just turned off and restarted.  The HARD disk starts but came in what appeared to be a bunch of batch and then reboot again.  This loop has days.  I started above zero. I tried to insert the incorrect CD, utilities and drivers one, when #2 CD was requested.  The process has been able to tell me that I inserted the wrong disk.  I then put in the right disc and it is same thing.

    I'm sure that the HARD drive is OK.  I could get on my XP box and do tests, everything looked good.  I saw two partitions and erased.  So not destructive and destructive tests passed with flying colors.  Put the HARD drive backin the laptop and tried to load a copy retail of Windows 8 and all went well except that I don't want to give this license.  Tried the result once again even refill HP media.  All I can assume is that number 2 CD is bad.  What do you think?

    It sounds as if the second cd/dvd is defective. I would like to ask for a replacement.

  • Replacement of keyboard satellite A10

    Can someone tell me how to reach, and where to find out how, remove and replace the keyboard on my Satellite pro A10?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello Jim

    There is no public document with precise description. I put t know how old is your device, but please be careful with the guarantee.

    In any case if you want to swap the keyboard, you must remove the plastic part on the back of the keyboard. Be careful, how you do it. If the plastic part is removed, you can see the screw that the difficulty of the keyboard. Removing the work is already done. The last thing is to disconnect the keyboard.

    As I said to be careful and I hope that you will not damage a few other components.

    Good luck!

  • How to replace the keyboard on the Satellite R830?

    Hello

    Your warranty is valid?
    In this case contact the ASP in your country to replace the kneeboard, since this would be covered by the guarantee and he would be free of charge.

    As far as I know the keyboard replacement procedure is the same as for Portege R700 series
    It s difficult because you will need to remove the other parts like the
    Battery, sim card, express card slot, modules of memory, base Assembly to gain access to a
    Ribbon of aluminum on the back of the lid Assembly. Then you could cut the lid Assembly face to the top and peel the keyboard joined the insulator.
    And also you can not use the keyboard removed and isolator keyboard again. You will need to use new parts.

  • G71 340US notebook: G71 340US notebook and migration of Windows 10. Have someone succeeded? Can I try or better not...

    I was checking if my G71 340US notebook is OK to upgrade to windows 7 which I understand will be completed July 26, 2016. I read the web HP requirements, but they do not make sense to me as I am not an expert. I understand that HP does not guarantee the purchased booklets before 2013 will work and I bought mine in Nov 2009. My PRODUCT NUMBER IS: VM114UA #ABA and the name of the product is HPG71 notebook PC windows 7 (64-bit). I saw other people in this forum face with his apparently solved problems by only the individual who posted the message, other internet connection problems and systems fail. Can someone please tell me if I'm okay or is it preferable not to attempt migration. Thank you

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the problem you face is that Microsoft provides only pilots with the most basic features and what you really need for these features is the specialized drivers written for the specific in your HP PC hardware - and unfortunately, there is no driver HP Win10 for your PC. HP only guarantees the compatibility of Win10 for machines manufactured after August 2013. HP is not no matter what timetable indicating when, or IF, they will produce drivers for older machines.

    This means that your PC is probably NEVER going to be fully functional under Win10 because the pilots is needs for all features simply do not exist!

    Personally, I recommend this doing the upgrade, especially since I did this on a laptop HP DV6 under Win7 and trashed the laptop upgrade bad, I had to restore it if you work with HP recovery media.

    Good luck

  • Satellite P20 - S203: want to replace defective keyboard

    Hi all
    Happy new year to all. I need to replace my keyboard because of lost keys. Anyone know where I can get a manual that shows how to do this? Congratulations in advance.

    Concerning
    Dave

    Hello

    Well, I don t found any documents concerning the keyboard replacement procedure.
    But as far as I know to remove the keyboard, you must first remove the battery. You need to remove a strip that is placed at the top of the keyboard.
    You will find 2 screws which fix the keyboard. Remove the screws, then lift the keyboard and unplug the cable.

    Please note: If you open Notepad (keyboard) you will lose the warranty! In this case, you must contact the ASP. Be careful.

    Good bye

  • G71-340US notebook: no sound after 10 Windows free update of WIN7 on a G71-340US laptop with CODEC IDT.

    After the free upgrade to WIN7 for WIN10 my laptop has no noise (with internal or external speakers). I tried to uninstall driver IDT and allowing windows 10 to reinstall the driver through scanning for changes of HW - still no sound. I would appreciate any guidance or fixes to this problem. Thank you.

    I'm happy to announce that I now have sound on my laptop G71-340US. After that more detailed error troubleshooting I found that there is an application called IDT Audio PC (aka IDT HD Sound) installed on my laptop by HP (OEM), I think. While I don't know exactly what function of this application is, it seems, it is related to activation of the feature of IDT HD Codec drivers. Somehow, I decided to look in Task Manager - startup and I saw this listed IDT Audio PC. I clicked on disable and then a minute later clicked on activate. After I did that, as simple as it seems, I have now heard both internal and external speakers. This is the first time I heard all the sounds since the upgrade to WIN10. I checked several times by re-booting my laptop and every time I now have sound. I will continue to test it through the week and see if it continues to be OK. In the meantime, I thought I'd share this potential fix (or solution) with all stakeholders. Perhaps others will find this useful and give me your comments. Fingers crossed!

    PS. BTW, if anyone out there knows what PC IDT sound is by all means share your knowledge. I'm curious why this app appears more often in the forum messages and how it can relate to the WIN10 upgrade. Sorry, but I do not remember what prompted me to look at the task - starting but Manager I'm glad I did. It's great to hear again!

  • Portege R700 how to replace the keyboard

    Hello!

    One of the keys on my R700 R700 laptop model PT311A-00Y00Q has a broken key. Apparently, you can get spare keys, so I need a whole new keyboard.

    But I can't find a guide to replacement of the keyboard, would you mind linking me to a guide?

    Thanks in advance.

    I've read some reports of users who have tried to replace the keyboard on the R700 and it's not very easy.
