HP Pavilion dv6000: Speakers are not working, could they be blown?

Sat, 17 Jun 2023 14:33:06 -0700

Speakers stopped working. I have had people look at it and they think the speakers may be blown. Headphones sound great. When I click on mixer and sounds, everything looks good.

Can the speakers be replaced? If so, where do I buy them? What's the cost and how do I replace them exactly?

Thanks,

Ross

HP Pavilion dv9000: Laptop shuts down after 1 second

Fri, 31 Mar 2023 02:33:28 -0700

When pressing the power button, the lights flash on and you hear the fan - but after a second, the computer shuts down. Then after 2 seconds starts the process over again. Once it is in this state, the only way of stopping it is by removing the battery and the power cord.

Thanks. I sent the computer to HP and they replaced the motherboard.

HP Pavilion 15 P Series: Is this even worth installing an SSD in? Will it help the performance?

Tue, 29 Mar 2022 03:24:16 -0700

I inherited the laptop from my family, who asked me to erase it and didn’t want it back (I got to keep it this year, well past its prime). I tried using it as-is, I can’t; it’s too unbearably slow.

While I am not opposed to installing an SSD, the version I have is pretty abysmally specced (A10-4655M/8GB DDR3L - hard to access/15” 768p TN LCD/Realtek wireless/1TB HD - Samsung ST Spinpoint), so the specs are a pretty serious negative on this one. I even tried to use it once and I hung it up again when it took 10 minutes to startup fully; I was tired of waiting.

How much will an SSD help this laptop? Like I said, not opposed but the CPU and overall performance was pretty bad at the time, so I was hesitant to do so after that.

This is the first time i’m doing this, but i’m gonna need to replace the back cover of my HP pavillion. This is mostly due to a crack that started forming a few months ago and i’m scared the screen might pop off. Is there a guide avalible to help me? I’m also not really sure over tools, so if anyone could give any suggestions, i’ll take them gladly.

For specifications, this is the specific model: HP Pavillion x360 Convertible 15-cr0xx.

Some of the keyboard keys (g,h, and backspace, primarily) stop responding and I either have to push down hard on it, or hold it a long time, or mash it repeatedly until it pops up with one or maybe two instances of the letter I want where I'm typing.

HP Pavilion 17t-ab000: No Power and No LED Indicators

Thu, 04 Jun 2020 09:38:11 -0700

HP Pavilion 17t-ab000,

This device will not power on, or give fan spin when the power button is pressed, the ac adapted is working properly it has been tested. I have also removed the CMOS and tried powering on nothing worked. I then went and found the board schematics and tested multiple points on the motherboard itself and it seems to be receiving power properly across the board, the DC IN board is receiving power properly but still nothing happens when the power button is pressed. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I have 2 SSD drives I want to install into my laptop with a fresh copy of Windows 10 Pro,

My question is which one to put in the caddy. One SSD is 500 GB the other is 120 GB.

I also upgraded my RAM from 4 GB ( 2 GB x 2 sticks ) to 16 GB ( 8 GB x 2 sticks ) if that make a difference. I appreciate your advice and thank you for your time.
