HP 2000 Notebook PC Hardware Upgrade

What is the maximum Memory supported, as well as processor.

We need the complete model number. The HP 2000 covers a bit of territory. Some of the models have motherboards with soldered-on CPUs which are not upgradeable, and others are socketed and could be upgraded to an i5 at the top end I believe. Some are Intel and some are AMD. I believe all will take at least 8 gigs of RAM and some may take 16.

  • HP 2000 Notebook CP - Hardware Reserved Memory

    Hi,
    I just purhcased a 4GB memory module and installed it in the second slot of my HP 2000 Notebook PC, on top of the factory installed 4GB memory module per the User Guide installed with the system.
    I am running Windows 8.1 64-bit.
    My bios registers 8GB, but Task Manager reports only 3.6 GB of useable memory and 4.4 GB Hardware reserved memory.
    Please let me know how to correct this to get the new memory into use.
    Thank you.

  • CQ60 Notebook PC, hardware upgrade

    Greetings,
    I'm new around here and needed some info about upgrading my hardware. First of all, I wanted to know if its possible to upgrade hardware like, i.e. Graphic Card, motherboard, memory, etc.?! I also wanted to know if its possible to change the memory of the onboard graphic card, since I tried but the BIOS won't even show a option to change it, I also upgraded my BIOS to a recent one but still no luck.
    Thx  

    As far as Hardware upgrades go, the deciding factor will be which CQ60 model you have. If it is Intel based, there are three different mainboards used with your notebook. Items such as HDMI and the Digital Media Slot are neccessary to consider to ensure a replacement mainboard will fix properly. Assuming that your base configuration matches, your options in order of performance are: GL40 mainboard, GM45 mainboard, and the PM45 mainboard with Nvidia graphics. If you are AMD based, there is no upgrade path that I'm aware of.
    The hardware maintenance manual is a valuable tool in determining what processor / mainboard limitation your system has. It should be easily found by searching under the CQ60 or G60 models.
    Hope this helps.

  • HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC - Hardware upgrade

    Hello HP, the model of the notebook is WW181AAR, i want to upgrade the processor (Core i7 Q740 @ 1.73GHz) and video card (Ati mobility Radeon HD 5000 series) of my Notebook, can you help me with a list of processors and video that supports the mainboard of my laptop, or any alternative upgrade, like a change of the mainboard, thanks.

    You can apparently install a motherboard from the dv7-5000 series which would accept the 2nd generation i7 processors as follows:
    Intel Quad Core i7-2820QM 2.30-GHz processor (SC turbo up to 3.40-GHz), 45W (1600 MHz, 8-MB L2
    cache). It would be this motherboard:
    With ATI Mobility Radeon HD 6550 discrete graphics subsystem, 1-GB of dedicated memory (Quad Core), and subwoofer v.1.2          630979-001
    Right now you have the best video available on the dv7-4000 series, the 1 gb Mobility Radeon 5650M. The new motherboard video would not be a big upgrade from that, if at all. The 2nd gen i7 processor would be a big improvement but obviously you have to buy both a motherboard and processor and a heatsink/fan as well. Might as well buy a new laptop because the current 4th gen i7s are much better than 2nd gen and the cost of all those upgrade parts is going to be close to the cost of a new laptop.

  • Internal hardware drivers needed for HP 2000 Notebook.

    Perhaps someone can help me pull a pawn shop "bargain" back from a life of exclusive Linux service.  The previous owner had appearantly attempted to retrograde the notebook from Windows 8 to Windows 7 using a Win7 recovery disc and an image of another computer. So of course the entire system, recovery partition and all, were formatted away and replaced with an unauthorized and broken install of Windows.  I'm OK running Ubuntu on if for now, but I will eventually want to install a fresh copy of Windows and can't find the internal hardware drivers for my HP 2000 Notebook (product number C2M42UA) anywhere on HP support website.  Before wiping away the unauthorized Win7 install I looked at the device manager and remember Realtec HD audio and Intel HD video and have located those drivers elsewhere on the web, but can't be sure what else I'll need.  I do seem to recall that with the bad install the ethernet adapter was without a driver, for example.
    Where can I find a list of drivers for which to scavange the web?  Looks to me as if a hard drive failure will leave any newer HP computer in worse shape since they replaced the recovery discs with a recovery partition on the hard drive it's meant to restore.  Something I should keep in mind in future computer shopping.

    Windows 7 driver download page for your model:
    http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-2000-2b00-Notebook-PC-series/5296210/model/530508...
    Remember, when you buy a new laptop they do not give you recovery disks. That has been true for many years. However, there is a Recovery manager that will let you make those disks and if you do that and store them in a safe place you are always able to recover your system. Windows itself also now has very good backup tools including the ability to make a complete system image of the computer in its current state (not factory condition) so there is no real reason you cannot be fully protected against a hard drive crash.

  • Upgrading a HP 2000 Notebook

    Hey I have a question, can I take apart and replace a HP 2000 Notebook. I would like to replace my processor. Currently my processor is AMD E-300 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics 1.30 GHz, Also a 64-bit operating system. My graphics card is bad also, want to replace that also.

    I recently purchased the same product and found that the E-300 processor, along with all the new HP computers with an AMD processor, is soldered to the motherboard. The only way to upgrade the processor (other than soldering a new one to the board) is to buy a new motherboard. When replacing the motherboard, your original copy of windows will no longer be valid so you will have to buy a new copy. The combined cost of the motherboard, cpu, and OS would be more than the value of the computer. I would just return it and go ahead and spend the extra money on a better computer. That's what I plan to do. 
    Try and find a PC that doesn't have a ball socket processor so if you want/need to upgrade it, you can do so without it costing you big $$$. Intel processors have pin-type connections and are easily upgradable. If you really want to upgrade you motherboard and processor, I would suggest you refer to the manual for the proper part numbers. Keep in mind some of those parts are for use outside of the U.S.
    Hope this helped.

  • Keyboard+trackpad not functioning at all on HP 2000 Notebook PC! please help!

    Tonight I turned on my laptop (HP 2000 Notebook PC) to find that the Keyboard and track pad was not responding, the only thing that worked was the wireless mouse.
    I can not find the product number but the name is HP 2000 Notebook PC, the operating system is Windows 8, I can't login to see if there are any error messages, the last thing I remember doing was trying to apply a new cursor image and it told me to restart and when I did I couldnt log back in or type anything at all, I could only use the mouse.
    Also the things I have tried to do are: Restart Computer, Take out batter and restart. (I cant do much because I can't type in password)
    All help will be greatly appreciated!
    UPDATE: I logged in using the On-Screen Keyboard, it seems like a hardware malfunction and not a virus because i cant find anything in my downloaded stuff that wasnt there before. So it is just a hardware malfunction.
    UPDATE #2: it says that the driver (for keyboard and touchpad) may be corrupt or missing and it says Code 39 in parenthesis.

    Hello Oceanlife,
    You state that the keyboard and touchpad are not functioning, that is correct? I will try to assist you with this issue.
    As of today are you still having this problem?

  • How can I avoid the need to OFTEN refresh or recover HP 2000 notebook?

    How can I avoid the need to OFTEN refresh or recover HP 2000 notebook? Windows 8.0.

    I found your support page by searching E0M18UA#ABA (as opposed to EOM18UA#ABA) which I assume was a simple typo. To answer your original question, the answer is to identify and isolate the cause of the errors and issues you are experiencing. Once you identify each issue, you can find what it takes to get beyond them without having to refresh or recover so frequently.
    You can only troubleshoot and identify the issues that are currently happening. If you are getting freezing right now, first take a look at this document specific to the freezing to narrow down the cause: Computer Locks Up or Freezes (Windows 8)
    A link to this document is contained in the previous one, but it is worth pointing out that this might be valuable to test for hardware failures: Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 8)
    Another valuable tool when trying to identify the source of the problems, is to perform a clean boot after having one of the issues and trying to recreate it. This shows how to  remove  startup items. A good strategy is to disable half of the available items first, then restart and try to recreate the issue. If you cannot recreate it then perhaps there is a problematic startup item. If you can recreate it then disable half more, and repeat a few times until you empty the startup items.: How to perform a clean boot in Windows
    I hope this helps, and by no means is this a recipe to fix your current issues, but a few strategies to help you better identify the issues.

  • Driver for my windows 7 64bit 2000 notebook pc 2000-2d02TU

    driver for my windows 7 64bit 2000 notebook pc 2000-2d02TU 
    i need my drivers as i didnt get the driver cd with notebook and for some problem i reinstalled my os windows 7 ultimate ,and when i am searching in your website i am just geting windows 8 not windows 7 .

    Hi:
    Your notebook came with FreeDos, and HP only supports their consumer PC's with drivers for the current Windows operating system in effect at the time of the notebook's production, which currently is Windows 8.
    I cross-referenced the hardware in your model with the hardware in slightly older HP 2000's, and all of the W7 x64 drivers and software from this model should also work on yours.

  • What hardware upgrades can i do on my pavilion dv6700?

    what hardware upgrades can i do on my pavilion dv6700? such as ram, cpu, hard drive, etc?

    Hi,
    As you already mentioned above, 2 items you can upgrade for your machine:
    1. CPU: Please refer to the following book to find out processors supported from day 1:
      h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01295877.pdf
    2. RAM & HDD: Please check this:
      http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware/HP-pavillion-dv6700-hard-drive-and-RAM/td-p/95023
    Probably spending a bit more money for a new machine is much better than upgrading the old machine.
    Good luck.

  • Hardware Upgrade on Windows

    We plan to do a Hardware Upgrade of our SAP 4.6c system running on windows 2000 Server.
    Can you let me know any documentation and steps to be followed for this activity with respect to this.
    Thanks
    Praveen

    you will have to run a homogenious system copy.
    find the basic document on http://service.sap.com/instguides, SAP Components -> SAP R/3 -> 4.6C SR2 -> SAP R/3 Homogeneous System Copy.
    Please listen to the note referenced in the guide, it is important.
    Depending on your database you are running, you will be able to at least partially migrate to 64 Bit (no HW vendor produces really 32 Bit Server any longer).
    Use extended kernel to get support for newer database versions (software download on SMP, Software Download, Entry by Application Group Installations and Upgrades" Miscellaneous Components" SAP Kernel" SAP KERNEL 32-BIT" SAP KERNEL 4.6D_EXT 32-BIT.
    but most important: which database you are running on.

  • Upgrade Tiger to Snow Leopard...... hardware upgrades?

    Up to now all is working well, but as my wife has a new MB running snow leopard and I don't want to get any odd file compatibility issues etc, it's time for an update.
    So I'm just wondering are there any preparatory hardware upgrades I should be considering?
    I only have the original 1GB of RAM...... I see from the apple store that I need to identify which generation my machine is...... from the above I thought it looks like Gen 2- is this correct?
    Since I only have a bit more hard drive space left, I'd consider upping that too, but I could manage with an external if the cost was disproportionate.
    Final question is will the Snow Leopard box set family pack upgrade straight from 10.4.11 without any intermediate steps?
    I'm assuming that software-wise I nede to follow one of the recent guides on the forum ie tidy up unwanted files and apps, permissions before a fresh backup (superduper?).
    Apologies for the slightly rambling approach (forming the question becomes a part of my decision process)
    Cheers
    Gareth

    To answer your final question first you can upgrade from 10.4 to 10.6 with no problems. Any program that runs under 10.4 will run under 10.6. You can install and run 10.6 with what you have in the MacBook right now. 1gb of RAM and the 80gb hard drive. I recently upgraded an older MacBook (1,1) with the same configuration. The generation of your machine simply tells you how much RAM you can use. 1,1 can use 2gb of RAM, 2,1 can use 3gb, 3,1 can use 4gb. Here's EveryMac.com's page on your MacBook http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/stats/macbook-core-2-duo-2.0-white -13-specs.html
    If you want to upgrade your RAM and hard drive you can do so for about $50 for each.
    For RAM check DealRam.com http://dealnews.com/memory/prices/systems/Apple-Mac-Book-PC2-5300-DDR2-SODIMMS/4 3938/2GB.html or OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/MacBook/DDR2/
    Your MacBook can hold two 2gb chips but can only use 3gb. I've got my 2,1 with one 1gb and one 2gb and don't notice any slowdown.
    For hard drives try Newegg.com http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=380&name=Laptop-Hard-Dr ives or OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/

  • Re: Portege 4000 - Hardware upgrades

    First and foremost, I would like to thank Toshiba for producing such a great product. This Toshiba laptop was bought in September 2001, with Windows 98 installed and is still running 10 years later!!! This is a great testament to all the designers and developers at Toshiba.
    I have now brought it into the real world with Windows XP!
    I am wondering if it is possible to upgrade the cpu without replacing the motherboard? In addition I bought a PCMCIA USB 2.0 notebook card. My dongle prefers the real USB sockets, but is there any way of upgrading the sockets from 1.1 to 2.0 or should I buy an external adapter?
    Thanks

    Hi meridius10,
    CPU upgrade is not possible and not supported. You can read more information about this behavior here:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/FAQ35006D000RR01.htm
    If you have USB 1.0 ports on notebook you cant upgrade them to USB 2.0 ports because its hardware limitation.
