Heatsink replace still necessary or not?

after getting rid of the rss with the help of firmware - is it still necessary to replace the heatsink?

Halli,
Thanks for the link.
The article came out on September 6th, so the firmware update it refers to is the previous one.
The writer's understanding of the issue seems to be a little patchy. For Example:
• He refers to the "CPU thermometer itself". In fact there are four heat sensors built into the CPU, but none of them are involved here. The problem is with one of the two thermistors which are part of the heat sink assembly.
• Any short circuit is likely to be caused by the insulation on the thermistor's leads being damaged by heat rather than by expansion of the heat sink.
• There was no relocation of the sensor and cable on the new heat sink, just added protection.
I can't see any reason at all for a recall now; most people are not affected by the issue and most of those that are can easily fix it in one minute with the firmware update.

    Hi,
    Your battery will be covered under the same warranty term as your notebook, so contact HP and arrange to have the battery replaced.

  • Is an audio interface still necessary?

    I am using
    Logic Pro X, Samson L2400 24 channel mixer connected via USB, is an audio interface still necessary to record all 24 tracks separately?
    Noob hardly expresses my incompetence here so thank you for your patience.

    I am very appreciative for the assistance however it confuses me slightly more in that I do have a Roland Octa-Capture however it also connects via USB. I guess it is also useless
    Articles I read state USB can theoretically carry 255 channels but everything else points to L/R Stereo.
    It appears a fire sale is in order and purchase of a firewire mixer or interface may be my only option
    Thanks everyone hope I can find a solution
    I don't quite get your conclusion: the fact that an interface connects via USB, does not make it useless. And according to a quick look at specs the octacapture aka UA1010 has 10 inputs; you could aggregate that with the Samson and another interface with at least 12 inputs, and there you have your 24 inputs: 10 from the UA1010, 2 from the Samson itself, and 12 from whatever extra interface you'd use.
    Getting one interface with 24 or more inputs may be a more secure and simpler route to take though.
    I also don't get why you almost blame our appreciated assistance - by "howevering" it - for confusing you about your 10-input audio interface, when you never even mentioned you had it in the first place?

  • After my heatsink replacement...anyone else having this problem?

    I just got my Blackbook back on Monday after getting the heatsink replaced due to RSD's (as an aside, Apple's turnaround time was blazing fast, I was without my computer for only 5 days). The RSD's are gone thankfully, but my computer is running noticeably slower. I only have 512MB of RAM, but I am getting the Rainbow Beachball when I try to do simple things like open Firefox. I'm a student so I'm not running anything major like Photoshop, Microsoft Office is the biggest program I use. Often I cant be on instant messenger and Firefox at the same time, and certainly not with Office running unless I want to wait forever.
    Is anyone else having this issue? Would simply upgrading my RAM (which I plan on doing) fix the problem, or is there something else that may be sapping my processor?

    Upgrading the RAM is going to make a significant difference. I wouldn't hesitate, if I were you - at least 1GB. If you plan later to go to 2GB, get a 1GB chip and throw it in there with one of the 256MB chips. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
    EDIT: Oops... forgot the other part of the question. Are you running anything else in the background (like Dashboard with a whole bunch of widgets)? Check the Activity Monitor (Applications > Utilities > Application Monitor) to see what's running and taking up your system resources.

  • Replacement warranted iphone 3g not syncing all apps??

    help, help and help
    soooooooooo frustrated
    iphone replaced with new as not working-plugged into itunes on my mac mainly to get all my apps back yet some not coming back onto iphone yet others are?
    mac is defo authorized as checked?
    when i open itunes under library and then apps it has "7" next to the word "applications" yet there are approx 20 - i'm guessing that the 7 is the number of apps not syncing back but wat do i do next
    help appreciated!!

    Hi Dominic,
    Make sure the applications are all checked on the Applications tab in iTunes. Just click the iPhone on the left side of iTunes, under devices> click the applications tab above the iPhone Summary and check the applications you want to sync to the iPhone.
    If the applications are still not syncing, try the tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702

  • Will 4s replacements still cost $199?

    Got caught in a rain storm while riding my bike. My water resistant Incase case couldn't keep my phone dry and water got in. Phone works fine but no external sound. I'm not buying the 5 buy simply want to replace my 4s (just bought it). The apple tech told me that it would cost $199.99 for a new phone which is very cheap considering my phone was brand new. Now the 5 has emerged will the 4s replacement still cost $199.99? My phone is still under warranty until Nov but with the red water indicators Apple wont touch it. So if I cant get it for a reduced price would I be able to buy applecare the second time around?

    Thank you very much. I don't care about the price I jsut want my 4s to work like it did new. Will applecare cover accidental damage?

  • T 60 Fan Heatsink replacement

    I have a T 60 That needs a fan heatsink replacement. I have the part number from the fan as 41V9932RN. I think I have a standard screen but not sure. I finally found the spec on the Lenovo site but all it says is 14.1, I measured the screen and I get 14!/8. Type is 2077-46U. Am I correct that this is a standard screen?  Thank you for your help

    Yes, your machine is one of the T60s with a "standard" 14.1" screen.

  • HT1386 Is it still necessary to sync to your desktop iTunes?

    I would like to load Windows 8 Release Preview to my Dell PC.  I also have an iPad and iPhone - which I'm assuming will not be able to be synced any more, when I do that.  Is it still necessary to do a sync to iTunes, or can these devices now stand on their own, with the advent of iCloud, iTunes Match, and so on?

    Thank you, my friends.  I'm going to save my dough and buy an iMac, which is what I really want anyway.  There is just far too much uncertainty at this point surrounding Windows 8, not only with regard to iTunes but other key pieces of software as well.  The disclaimers and warnings Microsoft is publishing about the release preview make my hair stand on end.
    I'm not a techno geek and have no interest in being.  I do like for things to work the way they're designed, with no surprises.  Which is why the iPad and iPhone seem close to miraculous.
    Thanks again, folks.

  • My USB port on my Macbook Pro stopped working and i tried the SMC reset and the one closest to the SD port still continues to not work. Is there anything i can do besides bringing it in?

    I would do another SMC reset. If nothing changes you should take the computer in to an Apple store for a free diagnostic. You should make an appointment.
