Troubleshooting  
WARNING: Only authorized technicians trained by HP should repair  
this equipment. All troubleshooting and repair procedures are detailed  
to allow only subassembly-/module-level repair. Because of the  
complexity of the individual boards and subassemblies, do not attempt  
to make repairs at the component level or modifications to any printed  
wiring board. Improper repairs can create a safety hazard. Any  
indication of component replacement or printed wiring board  
modification may void any warranty or exchange allowances.

Software Updates  
To stay current with the newest technology and maintain optimal  
performance, install the latest versions of HP software on your  
computer as they become available.  
To update HP software:  
1. Identify your computer model, product category, and series or  
family. Prepare for a system BIOS update by identifying the  
BIOS version currently installed on the computer.  
CAUTION: If your computer is connected to a network, it is  
recommended that you consult with your network administrator before  
installing any software updates, especially system BIOS updates.  
Ä
The computer system BIOS is stored on the system ROM. The  
BIOS initializes the operating system, determines how the  
computer will interact with the hardware devices, and provides  
for data transfer among hardware devices, including the time  
and date.  
2. Access the updates through the HP Web site  
(http://www.hp.com) or the Support Software disc (purchased  
separately).  
3. Install the updates.  
Maintenance and Service Guide

Software Update and Recovery  
Accessing Computer Information  
Before you access the updates for your computer, collect the  
following information:  
The product category is tablet PC.  
The product family name and series number are printed on  
the display bezel.  
Model information is provided on the serial number label on  
the bottom of the computer.  
To determine whether available BIOS updates contain later BIOS  
versions than those currently installed on the computer, you need  
to know the version of the system BIOS currently installed.  
BIOS version information (also known as ROM date and System  
BIOS) can be displayed by pressing fn+esc (if you are already in  
Microsoft Windows) or by opening Computer Setup.  
To use Computer Setup for displaying BIOS information:  
1. Open Computer Setup by turning on or restarting the  
computer, and then pressing f10 while the “F10 = ROM  
Based Setup” message is displayed in the lower-left corner of  
the screen.  
2. Use the arrow keys to select File > System Information, and  
then press enter.  
BIOS date information is displayed.  
3. To exit Computer Setup, use the arrow keys to select File >  
Ignore changes and exit. Then follow the instructions on the  
screen.

Software Update and Recovery  
Obtaining the Support Software Disc  
The Support Software disc provides HP software updates and  
installation instructions. The disc includes device drivers, BIOS  
updates, and utilities.  
To purchase the current Support Software disc or a subscription  
that provides both the current version and future versions of the  
disc, visit the HP Web site at http://www.hp.com.  
Software Updates and the  
HP Web Site  
Most software on the HP Web site is packaged in a compressed  
file called a SoftPaq. Some BIOS updates may be packaged in a  
compressed file called a ROMPaq.  
Most download packages contain a file named Readme.txt.  
A Readme.txt file contains information regarding installing and

Downloading a BIOS Update  
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the computer or an unsuccessful  
Ä
installation, download and install a BIOS update only when the computer  
is connected to reliable external power using the AC adapter. Do not  
download or install a BIOS update while the computer is running on  
battery power, docked in an optional docking device, or connected to an  
optional power source. During the download and installation:  
Do not disconnect power from the computer by unplugging the  
power cord from the AC outlet.  
Do not shut down the computer or initiate standby or hibernation.  
Do not insert, remove, connect, or disconnect any device, cable,  
or cord.

Software Update and Recovery  
To download a BIOS update:  
1. Access the page on the HP Web site that provides software  
for your computer:  
Select Start > Help and Support, and then click a  
software update link.  
– or –  
Visit the HP Web site at http://www.hp.com/support.  
2. Follow the instructions on the screen to identify your  
computer and access the BIOS update you want to download.  
3. At the download area:  
a. Identify the BIOS update that is later than the BIOS  
version currently installed on your computer. Make a note  
of the date, name, or other identifier. You may need this  
information to locate the update later, after it has been  
downloaded to your hard drive.  
b. Follow the instructions on the screen to download your  
selection to the hard drive.  
Make a note of the path to the location on your hard drive  
where the BIOS update will be downloaded. You will need to  
access this path when you are ready to install the update.  
Installing a BIOS Update  
CAUTION: If your computer is connected to a network, it is  
Ä
recommended that you consult with your network administrator before  
installing any software updates, especially system BIOS updates.  
BIOS installation procedures vary. Follow any instructions that  
are displayed on the screen after the download is complete. If no  
instructions are displayed:  
1. Open Windows Explorer by selecting Start > All  
Programs > Accessories > Windows Explorer.

Software Update and Recovery  
2. In the left pane of the Windows Explorer window:  
a. Click My Computer and then your hard drive  
designation. The hard drive designation is typically  
Local Disk (C:).  
b. Using the hard drive path you recorded earlier, open the  
folder on your hard drive that contains the update.  
3. Double-click the file with an .exe extension (for example,  
filename.exe).  
The BIOS installation begins.  
4. Complete the installation by following the instructions on the  
screen.  
After a message on the screen reports a successful installation,  
you may delete the downloaded file from your hard drive.  
Recovering the BIOS  
The BIOS recovery procedure requires a USB diskette drive  
and a formatted diskette.  
The BIOS can be recovered if the flash memory is corrupted.  
Flash memory corruption can occur if the notebook powers down  
while the BIOS is being updated.  
When the notebook is turned on, the boot block portion of the  
flash memory performs an integrity check on the rest of the BIOS  
image and enters recovery mode if the image is corrupt.  
BIOS recovery can be forced on a non-functioning notebook by  
turning on the notebook while pressing and holding the Windows  
logo key + B on the nonfunctioning notebook keyboard until the  
caps lock light blinks.

Software Update and Recovery  
To recover the BIOS:  
1. If the nonfunctioning notebook is docked in an optional  
docking device, undock the notebook.  
2. Attach the USB diskette drive directly to a USB port on the  
nonfunctioning notebook. (USB hubs are not supported for  
BIOS recovery).  
3. Insert the correct ROMPaq diskette for the product being  
updated. The BIOS image file must be located in the root  
directory of the diskette and must be in contiguous sectors.  
The easiest way to ensure this is to visit http://www.hp.com,  
download the Softpaq, and let the Softpaq create the  
ROMPaq diskette.  
4. Press and hold the Windows logo key + B on the notebook  
keyboard (do not use an external keyboard) and turn on the  
notebook and wait for the caps lock light to start blinking.  
5. Release the Windows logo key + B.  
The BIOS recovery procedure takes approximately one  
minute to read the image from the diskette, and then an  
additional 15 seconds to program the image into flash  
memory. The notebook restarts when the BIOS recovery  
procedure is complete. Do not attempt to turn off the  
notebook after starting a recovery.  
If the BIOS recovery procedure stalls, the caps lock light will  
begin blinking. This situation can arise if the diskette is  
corrupt or the incorrect ROMPaq is used. If the notebook  
does not restart after approximately 3 minutes, press and hold  
the power button, or slide and hold the power switch, for at  
least 5 seconds to force the notebook to turn itself off. Then  
repeat the BIOS recovery procedure.

Removal and Replacement Preliminaries  
5.2 Service Considerations  
The following sections include some of the considerations  
that you should keep in mind during disassembly and assembly  
procedures.  
As you remove each subassembly from the tablet PC, place  
the subassembly (and all accompanying screws) away from  
the work area to prevent damage.  
Plastic Parts  
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 tablet PC, ensure that cables are  
Ä
placed in their proper locations during the reassembly process.  
Improper cable placement can damage the tablet PC.  
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. Ensure 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.

5.3 Preventing Damage to  
Removable Drives  
Removable drives are fragile components that must be handled  
with care. To prevent damage to the tablet PC, damage to a  
removable drive, or loss of information, observe the following  
precautions:  
Before removing or inserting a hard drive, shut down the  
tablet PC. If you are unsure whether the tablet PC is off or  
in hibernation, turn the tablet PC on, and then shut it down  
through the operating system.  
Before removing a diskette drive or optical drive, ensure that  
a diskette or disc is not in the drive and ensure that the optical  
drive tray is closed.  
Before handling a drive, ensure that you are discharged of  
static electricity. While handling a drive, avoid touching the  
connector.  
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 a 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: Handle With Care.”

5.4 Preventing Electrostatic Damage  
Many 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, the discharge  
contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt  
silicon junctions.  
A sudden discharge of static electricity from a finger or other  
conductor can destroy static-sensitive devices or microcircuitry.  
Often the spark is neither felt nor heard, but damage occurs.  
An electronic device exposed to electrostatic discharge 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.

5.5 Packaging and Transporting  
Precautions  
Use the following grounding precautions when packaging and  
transporting equipment:  
To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe  
containers, such as tubes, bags, or boxes.  
Protect all electrostatic-sensitive parts and assemblies with  
conductive or approved containers or packaging.  
Keep electrostatic-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 sensitive  
component or assembly.  
Store reusable electrostatic-sensitive parts from assemblies  
in protective packaging or nonconductive foam.  
Use transporters and conveyors made of antistatic belts and  
roller bushings. Ensure 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.

5.6 Workstation Precautions  
Use the following grounding precautions at workstations:  
Cover the workstation with approved static-shielding material  
(refer to Table 5-2, “Static-Shielding Materials”).  
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, 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 electrostatic-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.

5.7 Grounding Equipment and  
Methods  
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 strips must be worn in contact with the skin.  
Other grounding equipment recommended for use in preventing  
electrostatic damage includes  
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.  
Electrostatic voltage levels and protective materials.
