Is it possible to upgrade/add a graphics card to a Pavilion dv7-7000 laptop?

I've been doing a lot of research lately, to mostly no avail, about whether or not my HP Pavilion dv7-7025dx laptop can have a dedicated GPU added to it, as currently it only has the integrated Intel HD 4000 Mobile graphics card.
Mostly I've come across the unfortunate agreement that most laptops cannot have their graphics cards upgraded/swapped out, since the graphics card is soldered on to the motherboard. However, after talking to an HP "support representative", they said they believed it was possible to add a graphics card, as long as it is compatible with the HM77 45W UMA Motherboard my computer has.
Furthermore, after finding the maitenence and service manual online for my computer ( http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03221579.pdf ) it says that it could have come with switchable graphics, specifically the Nvidia Geforce 630M or 650M.
So I am wondering, is it really at all possible to add a dedicated graphics card, either by having switchable graphics or something else? Or am I stuck with the integrated Intel HD graphics?
If I can upgrade/add a new card, where would I be able to find/buy a compatible one, and would I be able to install it myself or would I need to go to a local computer repair?
My laptop is the HP Pavilion dv7-7025dx Entertainment Notebook.
It has an Intel Core i7- 3610QM CPU @ 2.30 GHz, 8GB memory, 750GB hard drive (5400 rpm).
I am currently running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (64-bit).
Any other specifications can be found here:

Hi,
You can't add a dedicated graphics card to the system like this. The vga is soldered to the board so no way you can just plug it in like on a desktop. However, you can buy a new motherboard with the dedicated graphics card on it. It also requires a new heat sink.
Manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03221579.pdf
You need a 682040-001 board plus 682061-001 heat sink to have a dedicated graphics card on your laptop. Have a look on ebay for the part numbers.

HP Pavilion DM4 1150ea laptop looking for a replacement hard drive (WD504AV).

Hello i am looking to replace my faulty 500 gig 7200rpm sata hard drive (WD504AV) , with one that is compatible with the hp pavilion dm4 1150ea laptop, i am using windows 7 home premium, do i need the same make and model or can i choose any 500 gig hard drive. Many Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
You free to choose the make of HDD ( and you could install a 750Gb HDD - see maintenance guide below ), but as an example, the drives on the link below would be fine for your notebook.
500Gb Hard Drive
750Gb Hard Drive
The procedure to replace the Hard Drive starts on Page 57 of your Maintenance & Service Guide.
Once done, simply use your Recovery DVDs to reinstall the Operating System on the new drive.
If you don't have your Recovery Discs, youcan order a replacement set using the link below.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00810334&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en
If you have any problem with this link, order them directly from HP.

USB Ports on HP Pavilion 15-e087nr Laptop Not Working

I have a HP Pavilion 15-e087nr Laptop running Windows 8.1. It has 3 USB ports and all of sudden they stopped working. It will not detect my wireless mouse, a USB corded mouse that I have or my phone when I plug it in. I checked Device Manager and under USB Devices it shows a number of choices and none of them have any errors showing so it appears the computer is seeing the ports. However, nothing works when plugged into them. Anyone have any ideas for fixing this issue? I've tried to uninstall them with no luck.
I appreciate any help that can be provided.
Thanks

Have you tried restarting the laptop? Many times we get simply put the machine to sleep or hibernate- a full shutdown/restart can help with usb problems.
You might also try disabling "USB Selective suspend" in your Power Options plan.

Can I Replace a Keyboard(Non-Backlit) with a Backlit Keyboard in my HP Pavilion 17-e119wm Laptop?

Hey guys, my name is Armando
I bought this laptop back in April -->http://www.walmart.com/ip/HP-Anodized-Silver-17.3-Pavilion-17-e119wm-Laptop-PC-with-AMD-A10-5750M-Qu...
cause my old HP laptop had too many problems. Anyway I was wondering if this laptop in the link can change its regular keyboard for a LED backlit keyboard instead cause I usually find my self using it in the dark most of the time and the keyboard gets hard to see in the dark. So I was wondering if you guys would know if it can be upgraded. ( it would be helpful for me playing games on Steam in the night)
This question was solved.

Hi
No Armando.
There is no ZIF connector for it in the board, so basically you've to change the whole motherboard & I don't see any compatible boards with that function.

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

What is it you are trying to do? They do make usb 2.0 to HDMI adapters which will give you an additional monitor through an HDMI port but the performance is only good enough for web surfing and spreadsheets and such. It is even a bit challenged for online video like youtube or netflix. If you wan to run demanding games through it, no.

HP Pavilion DV7-7008tx Laptop - Raid 1 for two 1TB HDDs?

HP Pavilion DV7-7008tx Laptop
B3K25PA#ABG
Windows 7 Home Premium
Hi,
I have a Pavilion DV7 with two 1TB HDDs and a 32GB m-sata cache/ssd.
I would like to put the two HDDs into a RAID 1 (mirror) array.
When I enable RAID I loses the ability to boot into Windows.
I have verified that the Laptop will run the two HDDs in RAID 1 as I can run a Linux Boot disk ahd then boot into Windows 7 succesfully.
Something in the Raid /Boot configuration is not allowing the Laptop to boot directly into Windows.
Any ideas or instruction would be helpful please?
Regards
Gazman

Hello @Micro-Motive ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're having issues booting after setting up RAID 1 on your DV7-7008tx notebook.
When setting up RAID 1 mirrors you need to enable the feature and then format the drives. After they have been formatted Windows must be reinstalled. If you have not already done this, please try it now and let me know if you still have the problem.
Why: Enabling the Raid 1 feature does not automatically mirror the drives. The Boot MGR is looking for the content on both drives but is only finding it on 1 and thus fails to load.
I think it's also important to explain that setting up RAID 1 with a 32GB SSD flash along with a 1TB mechanical drive is going to drastically reduce your storage space. RAID 1 mirrors the content on both drives so it can read from both at the same time, increasing read and write speeds. The downside to this is that the mirror only works to the extent of the smallest drive. Thus, your turning your 1TB drive into a 32GB drive.
See here for more information: Chapter 19. GEOM: Modular Disk Transformation Framework This article is for FreeBSD users, an open source Unix-like operating system but the same rules apply as RAID support occurs at the BIOS level.
What you may want to do is install a hybrid drive. A hybrid drive will allow you to use the speeds of SSD at a fraction of the price. You can read about this here: Hybrid hard drives: How they work and why they matter.
Let me know if you need any more information or if installing Windows after enabling RAID 1 does not work.

Yes, but you will need to have the proper drivers installed for your printer. What printer do you have? What operating system?

Hi , I own a hp pavilion dv6 6050se laptop bought in UAE during 2011, I have lost the recovery discs

Hi , I own a hp pavilion dv6 6050se laptop bought in UAE during 2011, I have lost the recovery discs.
How do i get a copy of recovery discs??

Hi,
I don't see any link on your Product Page to order a replacement set of Recovery Discs, but it's always worth calling HP directly and see if you can order them this way.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.
If you are unable to order these discs from HP, here's an alternative option you could try.
Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
An example of a COA Label can be seen Here.
You can create an installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image ( this must be the same version that originally came with your notebook ) from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here. These Images are clean and from a well-respected source, however there are only limited versions available.
Windows-7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit
Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.

Any additional drivers and software you may need can be found Here.

What is the Hp Pavilion dv7-4054ca laptop pll?

What is the Hp Pavilion dv7-4054ca laptop pll? I want to underclock the cpu to increse battery life, and the guy that repairs my computer said i needed the pll, whatever that is. And I didn't want him to open up my computer...........

Thank you so much indeed,
Could you please enlighten me about these points::::
Firstly: I am quite surprised that I gave you my model name and model number, and you didn't know what battery part number can be compatible with my HP laptop?
Secondly: Imagine that I need the spare part 'Cooling fan', then how could I get the part number of it since looking at it would need me to take apart all components of my laptop to get to the cooling fan?
Thirdly: I purchased my laptop from the middle east(Saudi Arabia). Even if battery is available in the following countries (Qatar, UAE), I need to tell them about the part number of my battery to let them send me the compatible battery.
Fourthly: I need to purchase the battery at ebay.com, however, I couldn't know what part number of the battery to look for it at the ebay.com
Finally: I gave you these information below which is all what is written on the battery, and you still said 'The existing battery is the right place to check. There are more than 200 HP products use part #593554-001'
These are the information of my battery installed:
Battery 1:
Device name: MU06055
Location: Primary
Manufacturer: 13DP-SDE
Serial number: [edited Serial Number by Moderator]
Capacity: 55080 mw. Hour
Volatage: 10800 mv

Also, I found on the battery a sticker on which these information below is written:
Replace with Spare 593554-001

On the place where battery is placed, there is : Hewkett-Packard(Thailand)- Li-ion

Switching Graphics adapter in HP Pavilion 15-n007AX Laptop

I have the HP Pavilion 15-n007AX Laptop, with a dual "AMD Radeon HD 7620G" and "AMD Mobility Radeon HD 8670M" display adapter. Adobe has released it's new Lightroom 6 software with Hardware acceleration support for all graphics card with OPenGL version>3.3. The software crashes everytime, I try to use the "Graphics Acceleration" feature of the graphics. It runs fine, if I disable the "Graphics acceleration" feature.
I know, the Radeon HD 8670M display adapter has an OpenGL version >3.3, but the laptop always shows Radeon HD 7620G as the primary adapter, which has less VRAM and an lesser OpenGL version support.
Can anyone from HP Support let me know how would I switch the graphics adapter and make the Radeon HD 8670M adapter as the primary one?
This question was solved.
