Missing a screw on my laptop

I have a HP Pavillion dv7 4070us and I am missing a screw.   A screw that helps mount the hard drive onto the laptop.   How do I find a replacement for the missing screw?

I think your screws for the laptop mounting is the M3x3 screws...this picture I got off from a seller in eBay that might help you locate the right screws for you.

  • Missing two screws on the bottle of 15 rmbp

    Missing two screws on the bottle of 15 retina macbook pro. Where can I get screw? I need to repair it.

    "Notice the two screws at the left side of the computer. Although they can be removed, they exist for cosmetic purposes only and do not require removal. If they are removed, however, be sure to reinstall the two identical 3-mm long shoulder screws at the corner near the ports. Do not use longer screws."
    I would say if they are stripped, stick some silicone seal in the hole and the put the screw in and let it dry. You should be good to go.

  • Identifying replacement screws for Sony laptop

    I've got a Sony svF15215CXB laptop whose two longest screws (the big ones right beside the the screen hinges) have fallen out. The laptop still works fine, but is fairly loose. I've done some research but have not been able to find a manual that shows the type and position of screws on the laptop. There's a Sony manual on the website that has basic parts (e.g. hard drive, disk drive), but no screws, and there are replacement part vendors that provide lists of screws but no way to distinguish them (beyond part number). I've called Sony and they recommended I go to a Best Buy. Unfortunately, there's none in the area.  All this to say, how do you identify screws by their part number? In this case, I just need to find the longest from this list: A-1946-100-A Screw M2*3-i(bni)(nylok)iron YA-1958-292-A Q Special Appear M1.6x3(ni)(ny  A-1968-049-A Q Special Appear M2x1_7 Bzn Ny  A-1958-336-A Q Special Appear M2x3.5bni Nyl  A-1958-290-A Q Special Appear M2x5.5(ni)(ny  A-1958-291-A Q Special Appear M2x7(ni)(nyl)  A-1946-203-A Screw M2*2 I(bni-3c)iron  A-1946-214-A Screw M2*2-i(bni)iron  A-1948-361-A Screw M2*3i(bni)(nylok)iron  A-1946-094-A Screw M2*4 -I(ni-3c)nylok)iron  A-1946-097-A Screw M2*8-i(ni)(nylock)iron  A-1946-092-A Screw M3*3.5 I(ni-3c)iron Alternatively, is there an in-depth Sony manual that's provided to computer repair folks (e.g. Best Buy) that I could get my hands on? I have no problem with DIY repairs but just don't know where to start. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks much, - Micah

     
    Hi micahjm, 
    Welcome to Sony Community! 
    I also have limited information about the your concern. Service manual is a condifential file of Sony. I tried to search using the tool the we usually use and here's I got: 
    Hinges - Suffix-01
    Screws - A-1946-100-A
    And it did match the first part number on your list. Unfortunately, I cannot provide any service manual for your unit, as I've mentioned that I have limited info especially for service manual. 
    Hope this help. 
    Best regards,
    Vincent

  • I am missing a screw from the bottom of my laptop which I sent to the genius bar to get repaired

    Where/How can I get a new screw?

    I would contact them.  Make certain that you indicate if it a long or short one (screw).  You could also bring the MBP back to them.
    Ciao.

  • Missing bottom screw for iphone 4

    The left screw beside the dock charger on my iphone 4 is missing. Where can I get a screw for my iphone? Or can i ask from apple store since my iphone is still under the 1 year warranty. I bought my phone thru hong kong online store last June 2011. Will something happen to my iphone since one of the screws is missing?

    Your posted question reads as a part of an adult-related joke.  If you simply want another threaded fastener (I'm going to great lengths not to use the word "screw"), speak with a Genius at an Apple store, and (s)he might find an extra.  If the head (dang!) - I mean the top - of the screw is damaged, and the iPhone still works, leave it alone.  Here's the bad news...a damaged screw is a clear indication that you've opened the iPhone and, if the iPhone fails, Apple won't replace it (as an out-of-warranty exchange).

  • White wire for wireless antenna missing? or does this laptop not need it?

    I popped off the back panel of my new laptop to see why my internet wasn't working all the time. Turned out the black wire for antenna wasn't pushed on all the way so it kept popping off and on-
    But I noticed the white wire is not there? I've had this laptop only 2 weeks so I was wondering if the new hp 15 inch touch screen laptop windows 8.1 has this missing on accident or made this way?
    I was just wondering if anyone knows if this is normal or if it was a oops by the company and missing the white wire?
    Thanks to anyone with an answer.
    I included the photo of what it looks like- I crossed out all info just in case-
    This question was solved.

    Hi:
    Some models with single band (2.4 GHz) wireless cards only come with one antenna.
    I have no idea why HP does this because two antennas even on a single band card would provide for better wireless reception.
    I can see by the part number on the wireless card that it is a Realtek 8188EE model which is a single band card.
    HP did not make a mistake and leave an antenna out.

  • Missing an event on my laptop but it is on my phone

    i am only seeing one event tomorrow on my laptop whereas i am seeing two events for tomorrow on my iPhone.
    i am syncing using iCloud. i am using iOS6 on the iPhone and ML on the MBP and Lion on the Mac Pro.
    i have a set of calendars showing on the laptop under "iCloud" and i see these events. i also have a set of calendars showing on the iPhone under iCloud. each calendar shows up on both devices.
    however, one of the events for tomorrow is not showing up on the laptop.
    i have tried running "Refresh Calendars" but this has not fixed it and i am stumped.
    any ideas on what i am missing or what is wrong? i have not checked the Mac Pro to see if this event is showing on the Mac Pro but i can if this will help solve this.
    thanks for any advice.

    Hello hotwheels 22,
    It is definitely hard to stay on schedule if the calendars on your devices stop syncing.  I found an article with some additional steps you can take to further isolate and troubleshoot your iCloud syncing issue. 
    I recommend reviewing the sections titled "General Troubleshooting" and "Troubleshooting Calendar on OS X Mountain Lion (iCal on OS X Lion)" in the following article:

  • FIREWIRE PORT MISSING ON MY DV6-2088DX LAPTOP

    When I tried to download film from my Camcorder, I learned that the firewire port on my dv6-2088dx laptop is optional.   I bought it at Best Buy.  It was fully loaded, and I thought that included a firewire port. I reviewed the online manual and learned that there is an opening for a firewire port, but it is covered.   Since there is an opening for a firewire port, is there any way the firewire port can be added now?  If not, are current USB 2 transfer rates comparable to firewire transfer rates?

  • Boot MGR is missing on pavilion G6-1311sa laptop

    i had a problem with my pavilion G6-1311sa laptop with windows 7 home premium 64bit, had the error message saying hard disk had failed
    I contacted hp and they sent me out a new HDD and 4 cd's, 1 was a recovery cd and the other 3 i cant remember what they are for, think its also part of the recovery kit.
    After replacing the old HDD with the new 1 i turned laptop on and tested the new HDD and memory, they both passed.
    So i put the recovery cd in and all went well, even got the message saying recovery is complete, restart computer
    When i restarted it i put cd 1 of 3 in and it had 3 parts to load, restore to factory settings (i think it said that) copy files needed to restore ard drive and, copy files to hard drive, it goes through the 1st stage no problem but then sticks at 24% every time it tries to copy the files, and gives me this message: copy files failed from D:\PRELOAD\BASE19.SWM to C:\RM\image\BASE19.SWM
     i have tried 4 times now with the same result.
    What shall i do? Please help

  • Fonts missing from CS6 after restarting laptop

    I've installed (and reinstalled) open-type Stone fonts on a new laptop with Windows 7x64 and CS6.  After restarting the laptop, why are the fonts gone from the list of fonts available in CS6?  I have to reinstall them each time I turn the laptop on.

    Nothing to do with Adobe. Some security tool or your system restore is removing them to retain a specific state or you do not have proper permissions to make permanent changes on your system in the first place.

  • Missing guide screws for installing a second drive in my G5

    Hi, I just purchased a G5 and went to install a second drive and found only one guide screw in the unit. Has anyone found an inexpensive place to purchase replacement guide screws? I guess I could always use normal screws with some sort of electrical tape on them but I would prefer to get the proper ones.
    Thanks.

    Did you really purchase a G5 or did you purchase a Mac Pro? The computer in your signature is a Mac Pro, but perhaps you haven't updated your signature for your new purchase. Mac Pro has two optical drive slots whereas the G5 has one.
    Anyway, the official hard drive screws for the G5 are here. Notice that they are incredibly expensive. Some have had luck with the drive mounting screws that usually come with a new drive.

  • BIOS 1.3 upgrade screwed up my laptop

    Since I upgraded yesterday, I'm getting all sorts of lagging and freezing in almost every application.  It takes forever to open anything, and I've had to cold boot a dozen times in the last 24 hours.  My iE browser won't even open anymore.  
    How of I get rid of this POS and get 1.2 back?

    Toshibas come loaded with a lot of software that wants to update.  I don't think it is a good thing. Get your up dates from Microsoft. I have been ignoring the Toshiba updates. 
    I had to have my wireless card replaced and even though my laptop was under warranty Toshiba would not honor it so I am out over $100. They also had to dislodge a bunch of  Toshiiba software  and the trial version of Norton that came with the laptop that you can't uninstall with out a special tool.
