One of the best tutorials I've seen over last 20 yrs. In fact, so informational that I'm thinking twice about replacing the cooling fan and hope to somehow dislodge the gunk with compressed air. Machine is 6 yrs old and a guy is certain to charge me at least $50 for labor alone. Plus parts and age..........

[@rvprivat6693]

Fabulously made video - easy to follow step by step. Many thanx!!! Should be topranked!

[@StanMsc]

Спасибо огромное! Видео очень пригодилось. Разобрал, почистил и собрал свой ноутбук. Очень помогли!

[@efdalkargin1518]

i prefer 2 use liquid oil for fan too.

[@prestonferry]

I am surprised the oil doesn't destroy it.

[@teaganterbeeke2379]

Hi just need to know where the white cord with black end that comes from near the disk drive as well as the black and red from the same side need to go? Thankyou

[@pvcprintc.a.8620]

Thank you very much, good video, only sound and audio wanting to see where pay more attention, as the piece is called to release the things that are under pressure they are not screwed into the keyboard is flat?

[@frankwortmann6577]

great video ... I was able to fix my laptop although I have really no knowledge of that stuff ... just one question: is there a special content in the white tube you use in this video when fixing back the fan on the board? Thanks

[@howfixit]

This is thermal paste, like this one: GD900: ali.pub/1j9cff , Noctua NT-H1: goo.gl/dHJ60e , goo.gl/U7nszE

[@construyendoconocimiento6089]

Thanks a lot, was a very helpful video.

[@devillin5123]

May I ask the HP dv7-7208tx to be disassembled in the same way? What is the model of the fan?

[@HomeyKhann]

This is a non-lit keyboard. There are some versions that have a second 4 contact ribbon under the right alt key for the lit version of the keyboard.

[@Alysavos15650]

do you know if a laptop without the backlit keyboard supports a backlit one? i mean does the mobo have that plug?

[@ELECTROHAXZ]

Alysavos15650 No it does not

[@joo4816]

I reseated the cpu with thermal paste but the laptop turns on with a blinking caps lock and a solid red light on the f12 key. please help

[@marlondealwis97]

can you replace the RAM with newer ones?

[@maccentric]

Very nice video, I used it to take apart a dv7-7212nr, which is largely the same. Be very careful when taking the palmist/keyboard out, I managed to break the display mounts in the process, which are pretty flimsy plastic. Just going to epoxy the whole mess back in place and hope the machine dies before it needs any more work. What a horrible design, HP. I guess they really don't want you to fix this and would prefer you buy a new one.

[@Kvant_Jack]

Срочно . Уточните , пожалуйста , какой именно отвёрткой нужно открутить болтик крышки , чтобы добраться до жёстких дисков ? Спасибо

[@ahmed.ea.abdalla]

where can I replace that bottom case from? mine is all broken :(

[@thephily7432]

What wire are you unplugging at 11 minutes?

[@plasticentmn]

EXCELLENT!

[@amoghravikumar4032]

What was the gel that you used to place the cooling fan on the processor??

[@howfixit]

this is thermal paste, for exampla you can use Arctic Cool MX4 or Zalman ZM-STG2

[@dhdm9315]

Very good video

[@brunoabud6672]

Hey there.Yesterday i tried doing this and the computures works fine now. The only problem is that is not recognizing any usb anymore. when i try to plug something it makes a buzzing noise (if there is any sound being made by the computer) and then stops. Do you know what my be causing this and how could i fix it?

[@martingaite1917]

Muchas gracias, video perfecto

[@PsYc093]

Hello! I'd like to ask you some info, I have a laptop hp dv7-6b41el, I had problems at the pc, I checked and the motherboard was completely melted, the rest is all working, I searched in internet for that specific motherboard model, but there isn't, however, I find the motherboard "in general" dv7-6000 series, although it is not dv7-6b41el should not change anything, at least in base of what I know, right? ps: where I could buy it at a cheap price?

[@RodrigoMeazzi]

Thank you!

[@lllFredolll]

Thanks ;-)

[@NerpseB]

[@rub_guitar]

[@Bageltimee]

yo thanks mayne, my laptop's CPU and GPU are running at like 105 celsius when I play any new games, and it idles at about 65 celsius . I think the fan might be clogged or something. the laptop has been mostly kept on a desk, no cum or anything on it definitely. I will report back if i fix it.

[@BikeArea]

[@bruce92106]
