HINGES BROKEN ON HP LAPTOP HELP PLEASE

Hi all, The hinges on my HP laptop have broken after 2 and a half years of use. Now I'm stuck with this laptop and am a student for another 2 years since I can't afford to buy another laptop yet. My previous TOSHIBA laptop had very thick and undeniably 'invinsible' hinges and structure and I switched to an HP laptop to keep that same luxury with faster speed and performance. However, I already had to bear with the 70 degrees celcius average CPU warm up time because it overheats almost always and not to mention that my graphics card (Radeon) isn't even detected. My screen is messed up and I have no idea what to do, I really need help. I think you guys at HP would help me but I'm just freaking out because school begins again in another month and I have to take my laptop there everyday for programming classes and clubs.  This breaking had nothing to do with me because I treated the laptop as it were fragile in order to prevent damages and things like that. There have been 30 pages of posts relating to these weak breaking hinges, 10 pages for overheating and forums on other sites for the Radeon problem. Please help me HP as I know you get your customers satisfied.  Thank you, Shehryar

If it is the AMD processor version of the dv6000 the odds you need a new motherboard are very, very good. Do you have wireless issues? Do you get funny lines on the screen? On the other hand, if it is just generally slow there could be a million reasons for that, most of which are software and would be cured with a fresh load of Windows. Do a factory reimage if you can, to help rule out software as the problem.

     But where is manufacturer warranty then ? If the seller want to earn money from repairing warranties phones ? I think all products in the EU by the law has manufacturer 2 years warranty, just manufacturer gives the right to the seller took responsibility of warranty, but seems my seller knows that i have no other options and i have to repair or throw away this phone...so manufacturer should took some responsibility on top of that...and the worst way that blackberry suppor is only by forum or twitter but there is no reply on twitter so how i can contact blackberry for the help ?

  • Need to buy CS5 Design Standard, New Laptop-Help Please

    My wife is a student taking a graphics class a and she must buy CS5 Design Standard (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator and Acrobat).  Her computer just broke down and we need to replace it right away but we are on a tight budget.  Can we get by with a budget type laptop with modest graphic support (maybe 500-600 dollars) or do we need a high powered, big dollar laptop to run the CS5 Software?
    Thanks for your replys.

    It would be easier if you pointed us to the laptop you had in mind but I can't see how a $500 laptop is going to be satisfactory. I would think more in the $600 area you might be able to squeeze buy. Check out the Dell Vostro line.
    You can also save a few bucks buying the Student and Teacher edition at Amazon. No tax in most states and free shipping: http://amzn.to/dms74a
    Please make sure she's eligible for that before she buys it. Adobe requires proof before sending the serial number. Details are here: http://amzn.to/9LXvIX
    If not, she'll have to buy the appropriate full or upgrade version. That can be a bit hard to figure out but I created an online store with Amazon and sorted through it all. You can check it out here: http://www.theindesignguy.com/book-and-software-store.shtml

  • T42 - Vista upgrade - very slow laptop - help please

    Hi
    I have installed Vista Home Premium on my T42 (previously had XP Pro) and it is now very, very slow.  Also it seems to have erased everything IBM - ie -Access IBM button not working.
    Type 2373 - f1G, HD 40mb, Memory 500kb.
    Do I need to increase hard disk? or memory? or both?
    If I choose to reinstall XP Pro, how do I go about it? I do not have the original XP Pro disk and assume it must have been preloaded.
    Sorry for the number of questions but I seem to have got myself into a situation over which my expertise is sadly lacking.  Beginning to wish I left well alone.
    Any help much appreciated.
    Thanks
    Maureen

    Welcome to the forum!
    There are several issues at work here:
    a) RAM. You need at least (which is the maximum for your machine, BTW) 2GB for Vista to run properly.
    b) Larger/newer/faster hard disk would also help.
    c) Please be advised that your GPU is NOT supported by Vista and that you'll have to look for modded drivers on the web, and even with them your scores won't be good.
    In my opinion, XP is the way to go for your machine. You can call Lenovo and order a set of recovery disks for a nominal fee.
    Should you choose to stay with Vista, go to "support and downloads" page on Lenovo's website, put in your model number and start updating and unpacking the drivers...
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,

  • ADE mac laptop help please

    I have an intel based mac laptop OS X v10.6.4 and use Firefox v3.6.8. and downloaded the most recent flash player.  I am trying to read library epub books on my mac.  I have unintalled and reinstalled ADE too many times and I did it according to adobe's recommended steps.
    Here is the problem; I install the app but no set-up assistant runs.  Furthermore, when I open the app, all there is is a black screen and nothing at all in the menu bar. No options, no nothing.  I tried adobe chat and they couldn't help.
    note: I own a kindle and am aware that epubs "can't" be read on it. I would consider purchasing a nook or a sony if I could confidently get ADE going.
    ****Thank you for reading this and any help and advise is greatly appreciated****

    Hi, This thread may be helpful or at least point you in the right direction to receive some help. I am totally unfamiliar with ADE or any of the Readers. I just search sometimes for answers for others:-)

  • DV6275us touch screen for my laptop HELP Please

    hello folks
    i have a dv6275us laptop. i am looking for a touch screen to replace the existing screen. i have searched everywhere on the web, i read that hp supplied them as an upgrade, and yet i can not find them anywhere. even searched this forum with no posts found. i am running win 7 pro, installed 4gb ram even though it only reads 3gb, this unit is suppose to be able to accomodate a touch screen from two articles i read, and yet i cannot find one from my exhausted searches
    Can anyone help me find a solution where i can get one, and verify the DV6275us will readily accept a TouchScreen
    thanks for your help

    thank you sir, appreciate your input.  i am not going back to my searches, since it took so much time, however, one of them was from hp speces i believe, i appreciate your input immensly. i love the computer so much, it is great. i tried to contact hp, and they wanted to charge money for an answer. i was pissed off, that is why i have never bought another hp product, well i guess i will be forced to get something newer, it is such a shame. i may  keep the one i have for rving in retirement even though it will become obsolute, it will suit my needs, just not my hopeful aspirations with being to update the hard ware.....i appreciate your help though...much thanks
    take care sir
    you are appreciated, hp not so much
    thanks again, you are good people, and i appreciate your quick response and information

  • I have just got a new macbook pro and am trying to sync my iTunes, however i have an old acount that i have all my music on and a new account which is set for only me which is now on my phone and the main account on my laptop. help please

    with my purchase of the new macbook pro i have been unable to upload any music from my iphone or any other details except from my pictures. I tried to set up the icloud but i am having difficulties doing so as all my music on my phone is under an old shared account and on my laptop i have a new account specifically for me which has also been newly uploaded onto my phone with the £70 voucher.

    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • Need to buy CS5 Design Standard and laptop-Help Please

    My wife is going to school and needs to buy CS5 Design Standard for a graphics class she is taking.  Her old computer just broke and we need to buy a new one today or NLT tomorrow but we can't spend too much.  Can a bargain laptop run this software suite ok (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator and Acrobat) or do we need to spend a lot on a laptop with big performance?  A couple of computers in the $500 range we are looking at have Intel 2.13 ghz duo core, Core i3 processor , 4GB RAM with Intel Graphics Medial Accelerator with 128mb of Video RAM. Would that be enough?
    THanks for your guidance.

    That would work just fine. I run it with less than that on a laptop at home now and then.
    As an aside, this is the Acrobat forum. You may want to repost in one of the Suite forums to get a better answer.

  • My phone won't sync to my laptop, help please!

    I have a mac with the latest version of iTunes updated, and an iPhone 5s. Today I tried syncing new music from my laptop onto my phone and it just won't sync. There is more than enough available space on my phone for the few songs I'm trying to sync. Also, when I deleted music from my iTunes library, it won't even delete that from my phone when I attempt to sync it. If anybody knows why this could be, it would be greatly appreciated!

    Since your phone is syncing with iCloud, it will not sync your calendar and contacts with your Mac using iTunes.  To solve this, you need to also sync your Mac with your iCloud account.  However, this requires OS X 10.7.5 (Lion) or higher.  If your system supports it (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842), you can download a free upgrade to OS X Mavericks from the Mac App Store.  If your system can only run OS X Lion (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842), you can go here to purchase a redemption code to download it from the Mac App Store.
    Once you upgrade the OS X operating system on your Mac, you can go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign into your iCloud account and check the data you want to sync with iCloud (calendars, contacts, etc.).  After that, your Mac will be able to sync with your phone using iCloud whenever it's connected to the internet.

  • 2 questions about my Macbook Pro 17 laptop, help please.

    First, I cannot get a definite answer as to how much ram I can put in. I bought it new January of 2009. Some people tell me 8; others 4. One said 6. How do I get a real answer?
    My computer came with a 320gb drive. I have since upgraded to a 500gb and then to a 640gb. I want to put in a 1tb but I know these are thicker drives. How can I determine, before purchase, how thick of a drive I can actually put in?
    Thanks!!

    How do I get a real answer?
    Just ask. Apple specifies a RAM limit of 4GB for your pre-unibody machine, but many users have found that 6GB works just fine in any Core 2 Duo MBP, and others have established (by trying it) that 8GB definitely doesn't in your model or the earlier ones.
    Western Digital's 12.5mm high 1TB notebook drive will fit in your machine. It fits in all unibody MBPs and the 17" (only) pre-unibody models.

  • My ipod touch 3rd gen wont turn on or charge and laptop couldnt even detect it. no indication that its charging even in laptop no heat up at the back. how can i fix it? help please

    Try:
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
