Yup, unfortunately and im sure not by accident 99% of note book computers are made not to be upgradable. Everything is hard wired in to the motherboard. soundcard, video card (my own personal demon), network card, and of course the processor

Upgrade cpu for a20m (2628-RRR)

I got a A20m and tried to upgrade the cpu from celeron 550 to Pentium 3, I put a P3 700 in to the mechine, but it just runs in 550 Mhz, what should I do to fully utilitize the cpu speed?
I did upgrade the Bios to v1.13, and have no new idea now.
Please help!

Welcome to the forum!
Have you properly inserted the drive, because that's the reason for drive not being "seen" by the machine 90% of the time, and that can be tricky on A2x and A3x unit...make sure it's sitting properly in its caddy and is pushed in all the way.
Even if your machine had a BIOS limit (137GB for older ThinkPads) the drive would still be recognized. There are no "brand restrictions" on ThinkPads of this generation.
Hope this helps.

Upgrade CPU for an older 635 Laptop

Hi, I have had an HP635 for a couple of years now, It basically serves me well except I do enjoy a little bit of gaming from time to time and its starting to show its age now.
I cant help but notice he Mobile processors list in the optional parts http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/13969_div/13969_div.PDF
My question is, all warranty now expired, can I litereally pick on of these off eBay, retrofit it myself and have it work immediatly? Also, I have the e-350 processor now, and that has the 6310 Radion on board, but im not acutally sure if thats built into the chip, or is it built into the motherboard of the laptop?
So sum it up, can I exactly just pop a new CPU in and it will work, and furthermore will that affect the Graphics card ?
Sorry if it sounds like a newbie question, I just cant find a answer Im happy with online.
Dev

Well it is complex but the e-350 is called an APU, not a CPU or GPU and it means the processing and video are on the same die. So yes if you put in another compatible processor it will carry both computing and video rendering functions. While you might get a processor a tick or 2 faster in computing it will essentially have the same graphics unit and will not improve your gaming experience enough to be worthwhile.

Upgrade cpu for dv5 1201el

I have a Pavilion dv5 1201el. Good notebook but now i would like to upgrade it with a more powerful cpu. It's possible? What cpu can i insert to it to have more speed ? Thanks

Hi:
The product specs page doesn't list what processor is installed in your notebook.
Below is the link to the dv5 service manual.

Upgrade CPU for Satellite A100-683

What CPU can be used to upgrade the Satellite A100-683. Currently the Intel Core Duo T2250 has been installed.
I would like to upgrade my CPU and memory.;
(1) What is the maximum CPU that is supported by the mainboard?
(2) What kind of CPU kan I use. Thinking about a Intel Core Due T7200 or T7600?
(3) What kind of memory can I use to upgrade to 4Gb?
Looking forward to any reply thagt is usefull!

Hi,
I think since your machine is not anymore in warranty, you wont get any problems or a revocation of some kind of warranty when opening your machine and doing some techie-like work on it. :)
1. It should be the Core2Duo T7600
2. Use the T7600
3. 2GB+2GB? ;) T
Seriously: Try to use DDR2 with a FSB frequency of 667Mhz.
Thats all, still some questions?

Reovery for HP Pavillion dv7 Windows 7

Hi: first time on the forum, no very savvy about computers. I'd like to be able to recover "back-date" my computer, say, a week back. It is infected.

Hi, Julian:
Yes what you're saying makes sense to me. Probably the virus wiped out most if not all of your restore points.
I'm not quite sure about what you mean by an array of windows...
If you want to do a system recovery to factory specs you should be able to start the PC and at the beginning of the HP welcome screen you tap the F11 key to launch the recovery manager. Then follow the on screen instructions.
You will lose all data on the hard drive if you do this.
You can try to get rid of the virus and also copy your files onto a portable hard drive before doing a recovery by downloading this free tool. Use your CD burining program, select the Burn ISO option and make this bootable disk which will scan your PC for viruses and remove them without you even having to be in Windows.
Use the graphic interface. Then once you are in this "desktop" you will be able to see the folders on your C:\ drive and copy your files off to a portable hard drive if the program cannot remove the virus you got and you can then do a system recovery.

Upgrade CPU AMD E-300( 1.3ghz) for laptop HP 2000

Can I upgrade CPU for laptop HP 2000 .? change CPU for this...? impossible.?
Thanks a lot...I want to help

Hello santalucia1992. I understand you're wondering if you can upgrade the CPU in your notebook.
On some models of notebooks it is possible (though, not recommended) to upgrade your CPU. The problems you could run into are heat concerns and power consumption concerns. The cooling system for the notebook was designed with specific parts in mind and a faster CPU will create more heat. Also, the notebook's power supply was meant to handle a specific amount of power as well. A faster CPU will generally use more power. Also, some CPUs are soldered to the motherboard. This means that replacing the CPU means a full motherboard replacement.
In order to look up more specific information about the notebook I'll need your product number. I can use this to view what parts are available. This will give me a good idea whether or not the upgrade is possible. This document can show you where the product number is located.
I will keep an eye out for your response. I hope you're having an excellent day!

Can the pavillion dv7-6157 be upgraded for gaming?

I bought my son the pavillion dv7-6157nr two years ago and he is having trouble with graphics on the high end games he is playing. They freeze or crash. It has 8G DDR3 SDRam, 2 gen Intel Core i7 2.2 GHz - 3.10 turbo, and radeon HD 6770Ms graphics card. For video memory it says "itchable graphics"...what does that mean? Can this computer be upgraded in a way that would help the graphics? Is there a graphics card or driver upgrade? Can more graphics memory be allocated?
I'm getting tired of hearing that laptops suck.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Here are the original factory specs for the HP Pavilion dv7-6157nr Entertainment Notebook Computer. This model shipped with an Intel Core i7-2670QM CPU and a Radeon HD 6770M GPU. "Swichable Graphics" is a system that depending on some system settings and the graphical load, will "switch" from the integrated Intel HD GPU to the AMD Radeon HD 6770M.
Based on the HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC - Maintenance and Service Guide, there is very little room to improve the performance of this computer. The AMD Radeon 6770M 2GB (this is what you have) is the best this system can accept. Maximum memory is 16GB (you have 8GB). And, in theory, the best CPU would be an Intel i7-2860QM, however there is no guaranty of this.
As far as drivers are concerned, please the HP Pavilion dv7-6157nr Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers page. The HP provided drivers appear out of date, however you may not be able to install newer driver directly from AMD or Intel.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

All of what you wrote - I understand that. But understand and you - the replacement of the processor is required because performance lacking. For a new book i haven't money. You are employee of HP and really can help asking the question to someone of your colleagues who will know exactly whether to run the new AMD processors in my notebook. All my notebooks have been made HP I always helped the company - buying its products, help you and me now. I'm not asking for much - just a concrete answer - will work or not?
No!! That is where you are wrong. I am not an HP employee.
Very few of us here in the forums are HP Employees. Those that are, with very few exceptions, are here volunteering their own time to help owners of HP products. This is a peer to peer forum where owners of HP products share their time and expertise helping others who need help. We are here to help. We are helping as volunteers.
There is no concrete answer on this. Sometimes an upgrade to an unsupported CPU will work, but most often it will fail. Read my previous posts. The risk of whatever currency you use in your country to purchase the new CPU is yours, not mine nor HP's.
Here is a solid answer for you...Use a CPU that is in the list in the Maintenence & Service Guide and your upgrade success chance will go up dramatically. I cannot say your upgrade success will be guaranteed because there is always the chance that you may break something during assembly/disassembly or be unaware of a critical assembly/disassembly procedure and inadvertently destroy your new CPU.
If you want a high performance CPU and chipset in a laptop then choose well when making a laptop purchase. Laptop/notebooks are actually not meant to be upgraded.

Hp Pavillion DV7 6154EA RAM Upgrade

Cam I upgrade my Hp Pavillion DV7 6154EA to a max of 16GB rom 8GB?

Yes you can upgrade to 8 gigs but that is very very expensive.
Crucial Page for DV7-1199ev
You can use DDR2-800 memory also known as PC2-6400, 8 gigs of which is going to be close to $400US.
I can't imagine what you do with your laptop where 8 gigs is going to do anything for you that 4 will not.

Step 1. Start -> All Programs --> Windows Update --> Optional Updates.
Step 2. Open optional Updates and go to the section Windows 7 Language Packs.
Step 3. Tick the Language Pack you want and hit OK

Trying to reingtall win7 on pavillion dv7 cant get past a dialog select the driver to be installed

Hi I have a HP Pavillion DV7-4065dx Refurbished Notebook PC with the following specs:
AMD Phenom II Triple-Core N830 2.1GHz
4 DDR3
500 HDD
Blu-ray
17.3" Display
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit
MPN: RB-WQ861UA
Serial Number: [Personal Information Removed]
I recently tried to reinstall my windows and made the mistake of loading windows 7 Home Premium x86 (32 bit) when it should have been Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and my fingerprint reader wouldn't install. I tried upgrading to the 64 bit which failed with a message about incompatible hardware. I tried doing a HP System restore from both the restore drive and from backup disks I didn't have any luck with either. The restore using the 5 cds I created made it to the 5th cd and then failed without any reason other than error code "HP Recovery Manager error Code 0xe0ef000e" and told me to contact HP Support.
I have deleted my partitions and created just one partition at this point and tried to install windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and it starts off ok but gets to a dialog that says install windows => select the driver to be installed => and I can't get beyond this point. It doesn't tell me what driver it is looking for and my only options are browse and rescan because next is grayed out.

Hi:
Your PC should not require any special drivers for W7 to install.
Try downloading the W7 Home Premium SP1 64 bit iso file from the link below and follow the instructions to use the Microsoft ISO to USB tool.
Make sure you get the whole file to download. Make a note of the advertised size and compare that with the actual file that downloaded. Sometimes it states the download was complete but the whole file isn't there.
Use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
http://download.cnet.com/Windows-7-USB-DVD-Download-Tool/3000-18513_4-10972600.html
Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.

Is an updrade for the Pavillion dv6-3216us to usb3 available

No, there isn't an upgrade to USB 3.0. Here are the specs for your HP Pavilion dv6-3216us Entertainment Notebook Computer. According to the specs. your computer has 4 USB 2.0 ports. Basically, the only upgradable components in a notebook computer are the CPU, hard drive, memory, and wireless card. And the only easy ones are the hard drive and memory. Please see the HP Pavilion dv6 Entertainment PC Maintenance and Service Guide for more information about your computer.
