@malone628 2 года назад

Wow!! I am not going to lie. It had been awhile since I had taken a laptop apart to do any work on it. My eyes are not what they used to be. I was pretty certain the hard drive was shot in my HP. After watching your video the first time I said to myself, "why not give it a shot"? For $31 total from Amazon I got a tool kit and SSD hard drive. You made the rest easy. Can't thank you enough!!

@Angel-ph4xl 6 месяцев назад

how much was the ssd hard drive? any recommendations at reasonable prices?

@jimtalor7971 3 года назад

I bought a HP Pavillion 15.6 AMD base and it takes a Nvme m.2 gen3 which I upgraded to 1tb and up the ram to 16gb. After struggling with Dell's , I find the HP'S alot better from speed to battery life.

Help! I bought a new HP Envy 17 cg0003ca with 256 GB SSD and 1 TB HDD from Costco. It comes pre-installed with an HP-branded Windows 10 Home. I tried to make this laptop dual boot with Windows 10 Pro. But it crashes with a blue screen “Your PC/Device needs to be repaired” error code: 0x000000e. 👎 (I did the exact same dual boot set-up on my Dell laptop and did not have any issue.) Could this have anything to do with the HP-branded Windows 10 Home version that is pre-installed with the HP Envy 17? Do I need to reformat the whole hard drive and install a clean Windows 10 Pro base OS in order to do dual boot on this HP Envy 17? PLEASE HELP! 🙏

Hi sir, first of all, thanks for your videos! they are awesome, new subscriber here. I just bought a entrylevel laptop from HP, a 15s-fq0008sl (celeron n4120 with 4gb, 128gb m2 sata drive). I read the hp service manual and found this series (and also found a brandnew model named 15s-fq0006sl with apparently the same hw platform that comes with nvme one) is capable of run nvme drives. Given this, still you suggest to use a sata m2 drive or think it could work fine with the mvne? would I notice the differences in performances in this particular setup, with a n4120 cpu and 1 channel 8gb ram, or better stay with a bigger m2 sata ssd? thanks in advance and greetings from italy

@im_munted 4 месяца назад

When i upgraded my acer a while ago, first of all it was so much easier to open up, no prying was involved (probably why theyre so flimsy) but i completely forgot to disconnect the battery. i only shut it down. still worked fine tho and the added HDD and +8gb ram all worked after that. But good thing to keep in mind now.

@sensimania 4 месяца назад

The most difficult part of this process is trying to loosen the screws for the battery. The manufacterer screwed 2 of the screws too tightly, and they're also a little stripped. Those things are tighter than a mofo. I've been trying to remove them for 30mins now (with both electric and manual screwdrivers) and they're not budging 😢.

Hello Cadillac from England, quick question, the Corsair Vengeance you upgraded to, was it 2666mhz or 2400mhz?. The reason why i ask is when you opened task manager after you'd finished, it showed 2400mhz for the memory. Cheers.

@CadillacComputerCenter Год назад

Thanks for watching. I believe it was 2400mhz. The factory ram was 2400. Lot of those models only support 2400. 2666 will work though, may just clock down. Thx

@sheepster70 Год назад

@@CadillacComputerCenter , Thank's for the quick reply. Ok, i bought some 2400mhz 2 x 8gb corsair vengeance for an older HP laptop as an upgrade that had standard 2400mhz memory in it, but it didn't like it one bit. I have another HP, model number 15s-fq1505na, which is 2 years old nearly, that has 4gb 2666mhz as standard, so in theory the corsair i have should be ok. Cheers.

Other than that Linux Mint XFCE works great on this lap top.
