your nails make you save a lot in tools :-)

Yup, very useful :)

[@Uneke]

For the keyboard, you can push it out from the back. Look at the fan, there is a keyboard symbol on it with an arrow. That’s the place you push the keyboard out.

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

Yup, but you'll need a small tool to push it out.

[@Uneke]

@@ItsBinhRepaired I had to clean coffee out of the keyboard (my wife is a clutz), so I just cut off the tip of a qtip I had ready for alcohol swabbing, and just used stick part to push it.

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

Nice!

[@merkules4928]

For anyone with an HP 840 G6 that cannot get the base off after getting it popped open, you need to loosen the two recessed screws right by the top footpads in this video. I spent an extra couple minutes before looking into another video because I was worried about pulling too hard. I know he didn't do it in this video and it came off easy, so if you have the same problem I did make sure you loosen those other two screws (two small black holes in the top row in this video).

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

That's the problem with working on other people's computers. You never know what they did to it before o get them to work on. Lol

[@merkules4928]

@@ItsBinhRepaired I completely agree! I just didn't want anyone breaking their base like I almost did haha 😅 thank you for your video it was very short and sweet, which is great. I was just super confused when my base wouldn't come off as easy as yours did.

Very high quality video. One question, is there only one slot for storage? No extra NVME or SSD slots?

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

I don't think so. I talk about everything I see in the video.

[@youbaji]

Looks like there is another empty shorter slot on the above right side of nvme drive. It could be nvme 2230.

[@abdussabur493]

Thank you very much for this video its really help a lot to me, just quick question regards BIOS battery if i removed it will it reset the BIOS password thanks again.

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

BIOS password won't be removed by removing bios battery. Some models have a special area to short, but I'm not sure on this one. Other models have a master unlock code. You'll have to do some googling.

[@awfma10]

I notice the 2 memory modules are of different speeds - 3200 & 2666. Would this work optimally? Shouldn’t the speeds be the same?

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

Better to have the same speeds and size.

[@MAnees-jk5yg]

Hi Bro, Is it also supports NVME SSD ?? in your laptop its M.2 Sata SSD. Another question is why you pressed and hold the power button for 15 seconds after removing the battery.

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

No, it's pcie nvme. Hold the power button after disconnecting the battery to drain the capacitors to reduce the risk of damage.

[@charlemaigne2627]

do you have any way around bypassing bios password wout reflashing eeprom for this model?

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

I don't

[@ShorifulgamingPubg]

why can you tell what's that port beside the ssd port ? i mean beside the wifi card there is a empty slot what's that used for? can we use another ssd there.?

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

WWAN port. Not sure if an SSD will work.

As long as the SSD is removable, you can upgrade to whatever size you want.

Is it possible to swao the motherboard from a different 840 g6 to another 840 g6?

As long as it has the slots for it, you can install it. RAM you want to match the speed and type of RAM.

Check the task manager to see how hard the processor is working.

Can i use hdd?

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

My channel is about teaching people, so instead of the simple yes or no answer, I have a question. With the battery in the laptop, where would you fit an hdd? Ask yourself, is there room for one. Technically if you use a USB one outside the laptop, then yes.

[@Queenjassy]

I’m sorry I’m suuuppee impatient. I just wanna replace the hard drive . I didn’t see eheee it it

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

In that case, you might want to take it to a professional. Your computer won't work if you just swap the drive. There's more to it than that and you'll have to learn a lot more than where it is.

I guess you didn't get the memo about NOT using metal tools, especially BUTTER KNIVES or TWEEZERS, to open and/or manipulate things inside computers... So, I'll re-issue it as follows: DON'T USE METAL TOOLS, ESPECIALLY BUTTER KNIVES or TWEEZERS, TO OPEN AND/OR MANIPULATE THINGS INSIDE COMPUTERS!!!!!! AMATEURS... GOTTA LUV'EM...

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

Gee, I wonder what type of screwdriver you use and who you buy computers from. Only incompetent people are afraid to use metal tools, so they use non-conductive ones that they can slap around the inside of the computers. You must be deathly afraid of removing any screws, and think that the heatsink isn't a removable component... The real amateur is yourself, which is why you came here looking for how to take a computer apart... lol
