  • i can disassemble easily, but then its like impossible to assemble it back

  • @qazibasit

    My advice to you would be, 'always' kept a log on each step you do.

    In my case were, paper, pencil, and a video log.

    Be careful with the screws, because there are a lot of diferent kinds. And not all fit enywere.

    Hp has manuals for every laptop model on this matter.

  • Was it nessasry to stupidly edit the video ? Its a bit rediculace to even comprehend what is going on cause of all the transitions ....

  • My Dv7 runs at nearly 160F on idle. It's a problem with all HP laptops. The fucking retarded design used for the heatsink traps dust.

  • I like how it's impossible to see what you're doing.

    I had a dv5-1124ca with overheating problems except the ATI GPU was connected with a thermal pad and all I had was thermal paste so I just put loads of it on until the gap was filled. Mobo and CPU temps were down a full 20°C each but the GPU doesn't have any sensors so I can't tell if it's fixed or just taking longer to die on me.

  • I didn't get the trick to fix overheat. What is it?

  • name of the track please...

  • I fixed my overheating issue by returning it and buying another brand... HP laptops have been over heating for years and they claim its normal. Thats just BS

  • I'm thinking about replacing the palm rest and mouse pad portion of my son's hp dv5, and figured I may as well go ahead and touch up the thermal paste while I'm at it. His laptop runs hot also. 3 years old, just now upgraded the hard drive, and the left mouse click button is a little wonky.

    Would love to replace the laptop, but not in the budget.

  • Is it the same in a DV5 - 1290AX?

  • Why not just pay for a laptop that works? 

  • I was thinking, I think another reason why the computer is still warm even after cleaning, including the fan and heatsink, is because the fan itself is not working properly, I dont mean it stops working where it totally dont move but it still move's but weaker than it's suppose to be. So it doesnt generates enough air to cool the computer down,

    have you tried this before?
