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.

  • HP 2000 Notebook PC, DVD-RAM UJ8D1 has a driver problem

    I just recently upgraded my HP 2000 Notebook PC to Windows 8.1 and now it won't read DVDs or CDs.

I also went in Device Manager and checked the drivers properties and the device status is, Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged.

  • 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.

    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. 

  • 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?
    If you have, any more questions do not hesitate to ask. .

  • How Do You Filter, Or Stop Automatic Updates From Windows or HP to a Windows 8, 2000 Notebook PC.

    I would like to know how I can see automatic updates from Windows or HP before they go into my computer?  The reason is, is that these auto updates mess up my IE and my printer software.  I have a HP 2000 Notebook PC, Windows 8, 64 bit.  I would like to be able to filter or see these updates before they go in my computer.  Is there anything I can do, or a setting I can set?
    Thanks,

  • 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

    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.

  • Would like to upgrade to Dragon Naturally Speaking 11 from DNS 6 (which would also entail a necessary upgrade from Windows 2000 to 7) but understand after all this expense and trouble, DNS upgrade may not be compatible with Firefox 6?

    Question
    Would like to upgrade to Dragon Naturally Speaking 11 from DNS 6 (which would also entail a necessary upgrade from Windows 2000 to 7) but understand after all this expense and trouble, DNS upgrade may not be compatible with Firefox 6?
    Main priority is voice activation upgrade. Ideas about how to proceed appreciated!

    AFAIK, it's been over three years since a WinXP laptop or desktop PC has been sold; I specifically bought a laptop in June 2008 because it was being clearanced by that retail chain to meet Microsoft's deadline, and got it real cheap. It was tagged for the store manager to purchase, but he let me have it because I exceeded his expectations for the services I performed for his store and thought I deserved it. Anything that wasn't made for Vista-compatibility will be very iffy with Win7, IMO - so that basically rules out anything that was made before like Oct or Nov 2007.
    Unless another DNS 11 user happens to see this thread and can verify whether it works in Firefox 6.0 or not, I don't what to recommend except for you doing a web search to see what other DNS / Firefox users have to say about compatibility.

  • Error 1003 after i upgrade from office 2000 to 2003

    I just now upgraded form MSOffice 2000 to MSOffice 2003. When I tried to rebuild my app using application builder I get an error 1003 c:\...\internal.llb\excel_save_workbook.vi. Possible reasons: The vi is not executable. I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled office and I have copied the toolkit's files to the harddrive and reinstalled the report generation toolkit from there, according to some of the help files in the knowledge base. Neither worked, although the original error was in _exceldynamicvis.vi and now its in the one mentioned above. nothing else has changed on the system. I can recompile my entire program using ctrl-shift and pressing the arrow at the same time, and there are no problems. Any help would be appreciated.
    -Mike

    Hi Mike,
    Try opening the “excel_save_workbook.vi” and see if there is a broken run arrow in that VI. Hopefully there is. You can then identify the exact node (it will be some invoke node or property node) that will be set to some function or property that is no longer valid in the new Office 2003 API.
    The issue here is that upgrading office causes changes in the office API that break other applications that call methods or properties of the old office API. You’ll just have to manually go in and reset the function call to the new function call in each of the VIs to update them with the new office 2003 API.
    Hope this helps. Good luck!

  • HP 2000 Notebook Screen not working.... Still

    I have an HP 2000 Notebook that is running windows 8 64 bit and the screen on the laptop will not work.  When I turn on my computer, the screen won't show but the fans and everything els will work as normal. The capslock button does blink in a 2 blink series, which according to HP means bios error, but I believe that is not the proublem. I have tried to fix this proublem by all of the following:
    - Holding the winsows key and b, then pressing the power button (for one second) which should direct me to my bios update but it doesn't becuase i still can't see anything 
    - Switching the ram into different slots, I have 2 sticks of 4 gigs, I have also tried just one stick
    - Taking out the battery and unplugging it and holding the power for 60 secconds and plugging it back in... multiple times (Getting rid of extra charge)
    - Checked if the black light was dead but it wasn't becuase normaly if you take a flashlight to the screen you can still see it slightly but I can't see it at all
    The weird thing is, is that I can plug it into an external monitor and it will work. Also every now and then the screen will work for about a day but then the next day it won't work again. I even tried calling HP, but for them to talk me through it and try to fix it, it cost $75. 

    Hello, @jiddy30 
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I understand that you're having issues with a black screen on your notebook. I will try to assist you with this.
    As you're troubleshooting led to trying an external monitor and that is working, the issue is more then likely with the actual notebook display itself. I would guess with it working at times, it could be a loose wire in the display. It could also be the display.
    If you're comfortable you can check this yourself, Maintenance and Service Guide - this has visuals and instructions on replacing components. It also works as a guide when it comes to opening a notebook to just check wires and components.
    I hope this can help some.
    Thank you for posting on the HP forums.
