Posted: 07 Mar 2011 06:01 AM PST There are situations in which you want to replace some hardware yourself or to upgrade them. Taking your laptop in service might require some time and perhaps you don't have any to waste. What is more, it is also cheaper to fit your laptop yourself and not go to a specialist. In case you want to dismantle an HP laptop, you must know that sometimes it requires taking out some parts in order to reach the one you need to replace. The process might be a bit complicated and you should have some kit around such as a electronics, anti-static mat and a wrist strap. So let's get it done and see how to dismantle an HP laptop. First of all, you need to turn off your laptop and disconnect also the power supply. Now flip the laptop over, so you can face the battery compartment. This is located near the hinge of the laptop lid and it is the area with the slide latch. In order to remove the battery you have to slide the latch and carefully pull out the battery up and down. Eventually you will be able to take it away. Now it is time to remove the mini-card component and its location is situated on the left side of the battery latch. There will be a single screw holding in place the compartment and now carefully remove the lid. The memory modules are next and they also have a compartment below the battery compartment. In this case there are two screws that hold the lid in place. Now after unscrewing the lid you can remove it and press on the clips holding the memory. When they will be lift up, remove them carefully. Below the memory compartment is the hard drive and this as well should be removed. Unscrew the two screws holding the hard drive compartment in place and lift the kit up gently from your system. All the left screws should be removed and using a flat head screwdriver, you can pry the base of the laptop up. You should be careful with the screwdriver so you don't scratch any component. It is time to unscrew the keyboard assembly and remove the keyboard by lifting it. Depending on the model of your HP laptop, there is a number of screws that need to be removed. The newer models have fewer screws. To conclude, when it is time to resemble all together, you should keep track of the number of screws and keep count also which screws hold the respective component. You should have a bag or container where you can place all the screws, so you don't misplace them and end up looking in the room after them. In case you need to upgrade some parts or replace the existing ones, you can check within HP support, to see exactly what matches with the model of the HP laptop you have. Another thing you should keep in mind is to not force any of the components out of the laptop. With caution you should handle your laptop and with the same caution you should handle the parts of your system. |
Posted: 07 Mar 2011 05:57 AM PST Who makes a pink laptop? Well, honestly some of the biggest manufacturers on the market develop pink laptops, once they were starting to manifest an interest towards the needs of the ladies. Pink laptops are designed to be more feminine, to make you look always stylish and they say "I care about how you look". It is nice to see colored laptops on the market and it would be nice to see all the manufacturers developing pink laptop computers. There are the big names, but one in particular doesn't want to cross the line, Apple. This giant wants to stay black, white and silver and doesn't want to develop something a bit more personalized. But no worry ladies, there are so many other models you can choose from that will compensate any lack. Dell is one of the manufacturers that provide pink laptops and a wide majority of colors as well. The Inspiron 15R is available in pink color, featuring a 15.6" laptop. With its sleek and stylish design, metal brushed finish, super fast Intel Core i3 and i5, graphic cards and reliable performance, this Dell laptop could be your next style designer. You will have both fashion and performance in a single computer. You can also choose the Lotus pink laptop with the powerful Intel Core i3 processor, 4GB of RAM, spacious 500GB hard drive and Windows 7 Home Premium as your operating system. You can choose from several other configuration options, depending on how much you are willing to spend on your laptop. But the cute pink color will remain the same, no matter what. And it is also a known fact that Dell is one of the best manufacturers in the world when it comes to computers, developing the best systems and the ones that look good as well. Then, there are other manufacturers with pink laptops and another example is Sony Vaio. These laptops are known to be some of the best-looking, but also some of the most expensive ones in the same time. On mostly all categories of laptops, Sony offers the chance of picking out the color you want. And the pink is one of the best of course. Sony Vaio S series for example offers a distinguished look, comes with a powerful configuration, you can leave the basic one (Intel Core i3 processor, 320GB hard drive, 2GB of RAM DDR3, webcam, Intel HD graphics and Windows 7 Home Premium), or you can select to customize the laptop, depending on the budget you have. This type of laptop is a compact one, having a 13.3" display. These are the two manufacturers that have pink laptop computers, the other models you will find are more in the category of mini laptop. Netbooks, being the same thing, come in a variety of colors and patterns, so here you will not have the slightest problem finding a pink version It is true that there are not too many companies manufacturing pink laptops and that you can find more mini laptops instead, but the industry is increasing and sooner or later the others will step in and start producing more and more colored systems. Our needs are increasing and they will have to obey, in this way everyone gets out as a winner. |
