4 Removal and replacement procedures  
Preliminary replacement requirements  
Tools required  
You will need the following tools to complete the removal and replacement procedures:  
Flat-bladed screw driver  
Magnetic screw driver  
Phillips P0 and P1 screw drivers  
Service considerations  
The following sections include some of the considerations that you must keep in mind during  
disassembly and assembly procedures.  
NOTE: As you remove each subassembly from the computer, place the subassembly (and all  
accompanying screws) away from the work area to prevent damage.  
Plastic parts  
CAUTION: Using excessive force during disassembly and reassembly can damage plastic parts.  
Use care when handling the plastic parts. Apply pressure only at the points designated in the  
maintenance instructions.  
Cables and connectors  
CAUTION: When servicing the computer, be sure that cables are placed in their proper locations  
during the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the computer.  
Cables must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the tension required to  
unseat or seat the cables during removal and insertion. Handle cables by the connector whenever  
possible. In all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or tearing cables. Be sure that cables are routed in  
such a way that they cannot be caught or snagged by parts being removed or replaced. Handle flex  
cables with extreme care; these cables tear easily.  
60 Chapter 4 Removal and replacement procedures  
                 
Drive handling  
CAUTION: Drives are fragile components that must be handled with care. To prevent damage to  
the computer, damage to a drive, or loss of information, observe these precautions:  
Before removing or inserting a hard drive, shut down the computer. If you are unsure whether the  
computer is off or in Hibernation, turn the computer on, and then shut it down through the  
operating system.  
Before handling a drive, be sure that you are discharged of static electricity. While handling a drive,  
avoid touching the connector.  
Before removing a diskette drive or optical drive, be sure that a diskette or disc is not in the drive and  
be sure that the optical drive tray is closed.  
Handle drives on surfaces covered with at least one inch of shock-proof foam.  
Avoid dropping drives from any height onto any surface.  
After removing a hard drive, an optical drive, or a diskette drive, place it in a static-proof bag.  
Avoid exposing an internal hard drive to products that have magnetic fields, such as monitors  
or speakers.  
Avoid exposing a drive to temperature extremes or liquids.  
If a drive must be mailed, place the drive in a bubble pack mailer or other suitable form of protective  
packaging and label the package “FRAGILE.”  
Grounding guidelines  
Electrostatic discharge damage  
Electronic components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Circuitry design and structure  
determine the degree of sensitivity. Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some  
protection, but in many cases, ESD contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt  
silicon junctions.  
A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor can destroy static-sensitive devices or  
microcircuitry. Even if the spark is neither felt nor heard, damage may have occurred.  
An electronic device exposed to ESD may not be affected at all and can work perfectly throughout a  
normal cycle. Or the device may function normally for a while, then degrade in the internal layers,  
reducing its life expectancy.  
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the computer when you are removing or installing internal  
components, observe these precautions:  
Keep components in their electrostatic-safe containers until you are ready to install them.  
Before touching an electronic component, discharge static electricity by using the guidelines  
described in this section.  
Avoid touching pins, leads, and circuitry. Handle electronic components as little as possible.  
If you remove a component, place it in an electrostatic-safe container.  
The following table shows how humidity affects the electrostatic voltage levels generated by  
different activities.

62 Chapter 4 Removal and replacement procedures  
Packaging and transporting guidelines  
Follow these grounding guidelines when packaging and transporting equipment:  
To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe tubes, bags, or boxes.  
Protect ESD-sensitive parts and assemblies with conductive or approved containers or  
packaging.  
Keep ESD-sensitive parts in their containers until the parts arrive at static-free workstations.  
Place items on a grounded surface before removing items from their containers.  
Always be properly grounded when touching a component or assembly.  
Store reusable ESD-sensitive parts from assemblies in protective packaging or  
nonconductive foam.  
Use transporters and conveyors made of antistatic belts and roller bushings. Be sure that  
mechanized equipment used for moving materials is wired to ground and that proper materials  
are selected to avoid static charging. When grounding is not possible, use an ionizer to dissipate  
electric charges.  
Workstation guidelines  
Follow these grounding workstation guidelines:  
Cover the workstation with approved static-shielding material.  
Use a wrist strap connected to a properly grounded work surface and use properly grounded  
tools and equipment.  
Use conductive field service tools, such as cutters, screw drivers, and vacuums.  
When fixtures must directly contact dissipative surfaces, use fixtures made only of static-  
safe materials.  
Keep the work area free of nonconductive materials, such as ordinary plastic assembly aids  
and Styrofoam.  
Handle ESD-sensitive components, parts, and assemblies by the case or PCM laminate. Handle  
these items only at static-free workstations.  
Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.  
Turn off power and input signals before inserting or removing connectors or test equipment.  
Preliminary replacement requirements 63  
   
Equipment guidelines  
Grounding equipment must include either a wrist strap or a foot strap at a grounded workstation.  
When seated, wear a wrist strap connected to a grounded system. Wrist straps are flexible  
straps with a minimum of one megohm ±10% resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper  
ground, wear a strap snugly against the skin at all times. On grounded mats with banana-plug  
connectors, use alligator clips to connect a wrist strap.  
When standing, use foot straps and a grounded floor mat. Foot straps (heel, toe, or boot straps)  
can be used at standing workstations and are compatible with most types of shoes or boots. On  
conductive floors or dissipative floor mats, use foot straps on both feet with a minimum of one  
megohm resistance between the operator and ground. To be effective, the conductive must be  
worn in contact with the skin.  
The following grounding equipment is recommended to prevent electrostatic damage:  
Antistatic tape  
Antistatic smocks, aprons, and sleeve protectors  
Conductive bins and other assembly or soldering aids  
Nonconductive foam  
Conductive tabletop workstations with ground cords of one megohm resistance  
Static-dissipative tables or floor mats with hard ties to the ground  
Field service kits  
Static awareness labels  
Material-handling packages  
Nonconductive plastic bags, tubes, or boxes  
Metal tote boxes

138 Chapter 5 Computer Setup (BIOS) and Advanced System Diagnostics  
   
Using Advanced System Diagnostics  
Advanced System Diagnostics allows you to run diagnostic tests to determine if the computer  
hardware is functioning properly. The following diagnostic tests are available in Advanced System  
Diagnostics:  
Start-up test—This test analyzes the main computer components that are required to start the  
computer.  
Run-in test—This test repeats the start-up test and checks for intermittent problems that the  
start-up test does not detect.  
Hard disk test—This test analyzes the physical condition of the hard drive, and then checks all  
data in every sector of the hard drive. If the test detects a damaged sector, it attempts to move  
the data to a good sector.  
Memory test—This test analyzes the physical condition of the memory modules. If it reports an  
error, replace the memory modules immediately.  
Battery test—This test analyzes the condition of the battery and calibrates the battery if  
necessary. If the battery fails the test, contact support to report the issue and purchase a  
replacement battery.  
System Tune-Up—This group of additional tests checks your computer to make sure that the  
main components are functioning correctly. System Tune-Up runs longer and more  
comprehensive tests on memory modules, hard drive SMART attributes, the hard drive surface,  
the battery (and battery calibration), video memory, and the WLAN module status.  
You can view system information and error logs in the Advanced System Diagnostics window.  
To start Advanced System Diagnostics:  
1. Turn on or restart the computer. While the “Press the ESC key for Startup Menu” message is  
displayed in the lower-left corner of the screen, press esc. When the Startup Menu is displayed,  
press f2.  
2. Click the diagnostic test you want to run, and then follow the on-screen instructions.  
NOTE: If you need to stop a diagnostics test while it is running, press esc.

Performing a system recovery  
Recovery allows you to repair or restore the computer to its original factory state. You can create an  
HP Factory Image Restore DVD, using an installed or an external DVD±RW optical drive.  
CAUTION: CAUTION: Using Recovery completely erases hard drive contents and reformats the  
hard drive. All files you have created and any software installed on the computer are permanently  
removed. The recovery tool reinstalls the original operating system and HP programs and drivers that  
were installed at the factory. Software, drivers, and updates not installed by HP must be manually  
reinstalled. Personal files must be restored from a backup.  
To restore the computer using the HP Factory Image Restore DVD, you must first create the recovery  
disc. To create the recovery disc:  
NOTE: HP recommends that you create the HP Factory Image Restore DVD in the event of a  
system failure.  
1. Select Computer > More Applications.  
2. In the left pane, click Tools, and then click Create HP Factory Image Restore DVD in the right  
pane.  
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to create an image file to burn a recovery disc.  
To restore the computer from the recovery disc, follow these steps:  
1. If possible, back up all personal files.  
2. Insert the HP Factory Image Restore DVD into the optical drive and restart the computer.  
3. As the computer is restarting, press f9 to open the Computer Setup boot option menu.
