HP DV7-7010US FAN REALLY LOUD AND BATTERY NOT DETECTED..

Hi everyone, I have an HP-DV7 7010US, I got the laptop just about a year ago and recently the fan will spin really loud, like a roaring sound will come out and it will make it really uncomfortable to even use the laptop. I called the HP support and my warranty just ended a couple weeks ago, so I was wondering if anyone knew any solution or had any guides on how to DISASSEMBLE this laptop so I can get a good look for myself. I have tried to look allover the internet and there are no guides or videos on disassembling this exact model... someone make one please! I cannot get 1 last screw out and not sure on how to pop out the keyboard like the previous DV7 models.

Well, the keyboard DOES come off before the top cover because there is one screw hiding under there that connects the top to the base !  (Guess which screw is NOT going to be re-installed !)
Step 4 of the keyboard removal procedure say "Press on the back of the keyboard through the opening in the optical drive bay until the keyboard disengages from the computer."  Well that opening is covered by the numeric keypad !  Use a small, very thin bladed screwdriver to pry up the edge of the keyboard.  It will pop out.
The base part number has been superseded.  From the HP Partsurfer Part 681970-001 is no longer supplied. Please order the replacement, 707999-001.   I do not know what differences, if any. there are between the 2.

  • MacBook air running slow and fan really loud how to fix?

    MacBook Air running slow and fan is really loud and using lots of battery.  How to fix?

    Runaway applications can shorten battery runtime, affect performance, and increase heat and fan activity

  • HT1688 I am having issues get my email in one of my mail accounts so I tried to "DELETE" the whole account.  But my phone will not delete a mail account.  And the phone is getting really hot and battery was full 2 hours ago and now at 25%.

    I am having issues get my email in one of my mail accounts so I tried to "DELETE" the whole account.  But my phone will not delete a mail account.  And the phone is getting really hot and battery was full 2 hours ago and now at 25%.

    Well, you don't say what happens when you try to delete the account. So I don't know what else to recommend. However, if your phone is not charging, is that the mains charger or the computer USB? Also, if it not showing any change to battery percentage, then something is wrong with the software. The next step in user troubleshooting after the reset is a restore from backup. However, considering the condition of the phone right now, I would be more than willing to say your backup is going to be corrupt. But you can try. If that does not fix the device, then you restore as new, not from a backup. If the phone works, then you can try restoring the backup again, but if it messes up, you are going to have to restore as new again. If the restore as new does not work, then you need to make an appointment at the Genius Bar or Authorized Apple Service Provider to get the hardware checked.

  • My fan makes loud and very strange noises.

    Hi again,
    My fan makes loud and very strange noises. Is there any cure for that?
    Thank you!
    Markus

    Hmm... that is strange. There are a couple reasons that I can think of.
    First, go to System Preferences -> Energy Saver -> Processor Performance. See what its set to. If it is currently set to Highest, your fan could be going more often. Turn it down to Reduced or Automatic. Note if there is any difference.
    Secondly, are you all up to date on software updates? The last step was to see if it was a software issue. If it isn't, then you probably have a defective fan. AppleCare?
    Now, you would open your PowerBook. Look in the Apple docs (Support - Manuals) to find how to do it for yourself, or take it to a shop or Apple Store and have them do it. Safest option.
    Look at your fan. Has it come free of the anchor and is hitting against the wall or fan surround?
    Lastly, try keeping the PowerBook in a open, ventilated area. The fan will power up less if the computer stays cooler. For a possibly irritating but possibly helpful option, purchase a product that lifts the PowerBook off your lap or desk. I think Rain Design makes a good one.
    Good luck!

    That is probably because you have one or more bookmarks with a long title.<br />
    The width of a column in the Bookmarks menu list is in current Firefox versions automatically adjusted to fit the bookmark with the longest name.<br />
    You can check the names of the bookmarks and make the longer ones shorter.<br />

  • IPhone 5 getting really hot and battery charge not lasting very long at all??

    iPhone 5 getting really hot and battery charge not lasting very long at all??

    Try some of these to save battery time:
    Settings>Notifications>[Turn off any notifications you don't need]
    Settings>General>Software Update (Make sure you're up to date)
    Settings>Brightness & Wallpaper> Auto-Brightness on (And that your brightness is not to the max)
    Settings>Privacy>Location Services>Turn off/Stop apps from using it
    Settings>Bluetooth>Off
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Fetch New Data>Manually
    Settings>Wi-Fi> Off (When you don't need internet when you're out and about)
    To stop overheating, note these:
    Operating Temperatures: 0° to 35° C (32° to 95° F)
    Non-Operating Temperatures: -20° to 45° C (-4° to 113° F)
    Hope this helps!

  • My early 2011 MacBook Pro says battery not detected and does not work with a new battery either. Works only with the charger plugged in.

    About a year back i had replaced the MLB of my early 2011 macbook pro and it was all working fine. A month back my battery went dead saying "Battery Not Detected". I went to Ample technologies, Bangalore, India and gave it for diagnosis. Ample technologies are the authorized Apple support service in Bangalore, India. After 3 days and no phone calls they email me that "They feel that the MLB MIGHT be the problem and they want to test it by replacing the MLB and i have to pay for their testing". I had already spent 40k indian rupees ($700) less than a year back to replace an MLB and now they want to replace it again at the cost of 43k ($750) indian rupees. I have no idea what to do now. Spending 80k indian rupees ($1400) in less than a year to replace the MLB twice sounds unfair to me. Can someone help me out here ? Is there a valid warranty period applicable , since i have changed the MLB a year back ?

    short of doing a SMC reset, you maybe at their mercy.

  • 15" MacBook Pro runs hot, fan is loud, and incredibly low battery life

    My 15" MBP was bought in March or April (can't remember) from Singapore Apple Store. Here are the stats:
    MacBook Pro 15-Inch, Late 2011
    Memory 8 GB 12222 MHz DDR3
    Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)
    Also I'm using about 1/2 of the available 750 GB of storage.
    Here's what's up:
    1. The fans boot immediately after the computer is turned on and never stop, making everything much too loud...like a plane is taking off or something.
    2. The computer is WAY too hot. Right now I'm running Astrill, Chrome, Activity Monitor, and System Utility, and when I put my hands on the thing it feels like my fingers are going to melt.
    3. The battery life, even at a full charge, is about an hour overall, which ***** for so, so many reasons.
    Here's what I've tried:
    1. I took it to the Shanghai Genius Bar, but I think that the language barrier is impeding my ability to really say what's wrong. I backed up, and they wiped the hard drive, re-loaded the OS and put all my old stuff back on the computer. They also deleted SOMETHING from the Preferences part of the library, but I don't know what it was. Everything runs much faster now, but the fan, the heat, and the battery are still having their issues.
    2. I've checked the "all processes" CPU usage. There's nothing unusual (as far as I can tell), so I'm at a serious loss as to say why the computer is running so hard. Even with all the processing running as you see below, the fan's still blasting and I've lost 50% battery life in the past 40 minutes.
    3. I've tried the fix that requires deleting com.apple.desktop.plist and com.apple.desktop.plist.lockfile. It changed the way the desktop looked and absolutely nothing else.
    PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE help me! I'm a graphic designer and often run the CS6 Suite. (Currently, however, I am NOT running any Adobe programs and I'm still experiencing the problems.) It's really important that I am able to run Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign at once, and it CAN, but with the heat problems I'm having without ANY of the graphics stuff running, it worries me.

    Just took another look at iStat Menus (I've only had it for a couple of days - I used to use the old iStat Pro widget) and it seems as if you can make fan speed defaults and use them instead of relying on your MBPs sensors to take care of the fans... see...
    Might want to use that 'medium' speed (there by default as I know I didn't add it) and keep an eye on your temps. If you start heating up to much, go back to the 'Default'.

  • Fan really loud

    My son's imac has been shutting down on its own and not wanting to start up. Then it'll start up by itself and the fan is really loud. I followed the steps to reset the SMU but it didn't help. (turned off computer, removed all cables, including power cord.... waited 10 seconds, held in power button and put in power cord at the same time) I don't have the extra warranty protection right now, because the lack of funds won't allow right now. I'm planning on purchasing it in a couple weeks. Anybody got any suggestions? HELP!

    Welcome to Discussions - Apple Care has to be bought within one year of the original date of purchase, so you had better do it before then. If you have a G5 iMac, it sounds as if your power supply unit is faulty, see if you qualify for one of Apple's Repair extension programs.

  • Mac mini Intel Core Duo fan very loud and runs at high speed all the time.

    I purchased an "Open box" Mac mini Intel Core Duo, 1.66Ghz, 2G ram, 80G HD and SD a few days ago from Fry's.
    It runs beautifully except the fan is very loud compared to any Mac my family has ever had. It is so loud that we were thinking of putting it under the desk.
    The fan runs constantly, and I mean all the time, at a high speed. You can really feel the air coming out the exhaust vents. The case is always cool to the touch as is the exhaust air.
    My aunt bought a similar Mac mini (But only 512Mb ram) the same day. Her's is very quiet. The case feels just slightly warm, not unlike other Mac mini's I've seen.
    Should my Mac mini's fan be running this way?
    Thanks,
    llulua
    BTW: The "open box" was sealed with a Fry's label and it said that this had a new warranty. Yet, checking the serial number, it said that it had about 260 days left. I guess Fry's is backing it?
    Also, someone told me that perhaps the main wire from the fan to the logic board is disconnected.

    eMac 1Ghz, iBook 500 dual usb, Mac mini 1.66Ghz Intel Core Duo 2g ram   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Since you have 2 gigs of memory, my thoughts are that when the party (Fry's or the origianl purchaser) upgraded the memory, they neglected to reattach the wire at the front of the Mini under the IR receptor at the right front corner that regulates the fan speed. This wire must be unattached in order to upgrade the memory, and is probably why the original person brought it back, because of the fan noise resulting from failing to reattach the wire. If that wire is left unattached, the fan runs continually at high speed to protect the CPU and system in general. If you do not want to use a putty knife to open the Mini, take it back to Fry's and ask someone who is Mac savvy to open it and reattach the small plastic receptacle at the end of the wire into its socket at the right front of the machine. When I go to Fry's, I am always concerned because the employees allow people to pry keys off of the Apple notebooks, so don't expect that their employees to know or care about anything Mac.

  • Fan runs loudly and upgrades

    So mac isn't really famous for having upgradeable products, but is there anyway or anywhere where I can change out hardware on my imac? I have a 20" G5 and I use it for Photoshop and Z brush and it works fine for that, but if I play a game the game play tends to jump. I'm not great with computers and I'm new to mac so I don't know if or where I can change the graphics or video card.
    Also, the fan seems to run really loud at times? Does is seem this way with anyones else? It's done this before and I had to get the power supply changed... twice.
