HP Probook 4520s Disassembly and thermal compound paste replacement

[@BoguslavSL]

Thank you for a professional and beautifully edited video. Voice wouldn't hurt but still good no techno music in background.

[@zzzzzz...9902]

You know I do not normally comment about how much thermal paste people use but um that is way to much.

[@zzzzzz...9902]

+gstringradio Ya I put thermal paste on a CPU for the first time about 2 months ago. I did not use that much thermal paste lol. I already knew you can fry a CPU by doing that. The computer is still running very well.

[@angusoverend6005]

thanks for the guide, i hate working on laptops and this made it much easyer

[@BoguslavSL]

And personally - I consider this laptop as one of the best business constructions I've tried. I have also bought the new ProBook 450 for my mother and she is very happy with it. However, it does not accept most 4GB/8GB RAM memories with exact specs as the original. I had to resell the ones I bought online. Who would have known

[@pa2kelis]

Take fan apart to,Not only brush from outside,and to much compuond

[@viktorpettersson6899]

pa2kelis he didnt even cleen the cpu/heatsink. he used no isoprop

You just saved my life! I almost unpluged the keyboard! Thank you very much!

[@rijden-nu]

That was WAY too much thermal paste. Not just a little bit too much, more like 20x more than necessary to the point where it probably spreads all out around the parts and starts hurting cooling performance again... Other than that, nice video with clear (dis)assembly instructions, which is what I was interested in.

[@rijden-nu]

Ok, apparently you had many more comments about that and had a phase where you removed the surplus but didn't show on video? Hmmz, if that's true you should probably put a big fat annotation there about not using that much. Inexperienced people could hurt their devices if they follow that example.

[@workbenchstuff]

+SadBunny Done ! Thank you for asking me that !

[@rijden-nu]

+workbenchstuff Good on ya :)

[@TijmenJanssen]

Great video, only had me confused, thought my soundcard stopped working :D. And, you should clean it better and use way less compound. Just a small dot is more than enough. You applied twice the amount that would usually be used on a full size desktop CPU. But it will spread over time. But clean it with at least something like alcohol.

[@RadeMacedon]

what about static electricity , will i damage my lap top if i use bare hands like that? thanks a lot

[@HellraiserJunior]

Hello, i have that laptop and another hp laptop but can i put a core i5 2540m vpro in the hp probook 4520s? The core i5 2540m supports ppga988 and the core i3 in the hp probook 4520s supports pga988 so the i5 has one more p but can i put the i5 in the probook 4520s?

[@Highnani]

Hello,After doing all the steps above,I tried to switch my laptop on but it does'nt.I tried trice but with no result .What should i do ?

[@sawark]

Thank you very much. Thermal paste quantity - way too much, but you aknowledged it in previous comments, of course. One question though: Why do you warn against unplugging the keyboard? To avoid obligatory hard reset later or was it something else - perhaps simply it wasn't necessary at all, because you were only going to replace thermal compound paste, nothing more (no HDD or RAM upgrade, etc.)?

[@workbenchstuff]

It is impossible to reach the area to change the thermal paste, so the keyboard has to be unplugged

[@sawark]

@@workbenchstuff But you advised against upnlugging the keyboard: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJvInZKql72Maq8 (I mean: keyboard cable, of course) and it visibly remains plugged for the rest of your laptop's maintenance. That's why I'm asking about it.

[@workbenchstuff]

to be honest, i don't remember why... :(

[@reclee8333]

if you don't have the bios password for 4520s and you really need to access it, what would you do? both software and hardware side, if it can be done in many ways.

[@MILCODEOS]

HOW DO I ORDER THE PASTE OR GLUE AND WHAT NAME DOES IT HAVE?

[@workbenchstuff]

not from me anyway ;) i took it from a regular computer shop, ask someone there what is better for your PC/laptop

[@doctorgamingm.d.8254]

can I change the processor of this laptop I have intel i3 370m is it possible to upgrade?

[@qdeqdeqdeqde]

i managed to upgrade to i7 620m ,working after a bios update to F.61

[@qdeqdeqdeqde]

@@iyadarusi8762 The 620m which i bought is enough for my needs, You could try to go for the 640m , but i don't know if that will succeed. I would recommend the 620m because its cheaper and works. BIOS is a small software part in the notebook which is needed to start up. Sometimes you need to update it - it's called an BIOS update. without it the 620m wouldn't work in my case. You can download the BIOS file and the update tool from HP's website. Be careful, if you use the wrong BIOS file, you could damage the notebook beyond repair. bit.ly/2FZgKT2

[@briansanchez7912]

Ferko Ferkovic hey I know this comment is old but I was wondering if I could install the bios with windows 10 because the only version they have on hp is only windows 7 ????

[@doctorgamingm.d.8254]

is thermal compound application nessery? i change my inte

[@tunkunrunk]

in my case the fan is spinning too fast , I have no video signal and the power button seems stuck to switch on position , long press doesn't switch the laptop of . I almost forgot , the keyboard is no longer working

[@workbenchstuff]

then I suggest you to buy a new laptop :)

[@tunkunrunk]

@@workbenchstuff another working motherboard is in my budget , it's around $60 on ebay

[@SimonZahradnik]

Hello. Is it necessary/important to erase original thermal compound? Thanks

[@workbenchstuff]

erase/clean original compound so the heat transfer will be better !

[@popohamerupad9322]

I am stuck in the middle of process since I do not have thermal compound. What would happen if I will not add it, can it damaged my PC?

[@workbenchstuff]

Popo Hamerupad Yes, the thermal compound is very important, assuring the optimal heat transfer between the processor and the radiator. Please go to a PC shop and get a tube.

[@RobertoRoberri]

it will work just fine as long as you dont play any game

[@akarvibabu8024]

What is the name of this tube.

[@hamadibenzarti6252]

Hello "workbenchstuff" Sorry I do not speak English but I translate with Google, my question is: is there not a page that speaks about this event, cleaning the envelope and put the thermal paste because I do not understand The English language, thank you for answering me

[@LikeAGroove]

don't use that amount of thermal paste, you will end up doing the opposite, the heat will be trapped by the thermal paste instead of conducting it to the copper bars

[@workbenchstuff]

of course not, some of it was removed

[@SureshKumar-rw5wd]

Thank u very useful video

[@Rushv0]

How do I know if my CPU is overheating?

[@workbenchstuff]

JamesDerekGames the computer is shutting down suddenly

[@dustinkrejci6142]

Lordsknight hot enough and long enough your lappy secondary purpose is a heater.

[@MaazQaiser]

Please can some body recommend me a good battery for this laptop hp probook 4520s i have one but the problem is its all the time getting hot also my battery goes dead after 6 or 7 months. I think my laptop is short from some where. My original battery is already gone but now the problem is i change two batteries but my battery got dead which battery is better for me could some body recommend me. It has also heating problem but the big problem for me is its battery i donot find a good battery for this laptop could any body share any link it would be preferable for me

[@workbenchstuff]

try to find and buy a genuine battery, i found this solution to be the best, otherwise you will change aftermarket batteries every 6-7 months

[@MaazQaiser]

workbenchstuff ok thanks

[@jawadtaybi6325]

First you should wipe clean completely the cpu with some alcohol, use a small amount of thermal paste just a dot not a blub then to screw the heat shield criss cross to allow an even distribution of tp and pressure.

[@b4um889]

Pls upload video on CMOS battery replacement of this model

[@workbenchstuff]

i don't have the laptop anymore

[@medaminelmokni1840]

isn t that too much thermal compound?

[@sld68]

Attention don't put as much thermal, a grain of rice for each processor it's enough

[@Tenorr7]

You place a lot of thermal paste,that will cause some problems!

[@workbenchstuff]

***** I know, the surplus was removed, but this phase was not shown in the video ;)

[@rickfy33]

how much thermal paste should i use? is it safe to do at home or should i take my laptop to a repair service

[@TheBunnyDeveloper]

@@rickfy33 You can do either. Depends on uour confidence on changing it yourself.

Thank you, man!

[@maryberia1089]

Can I don't use CPU

[@TheBunnyDeveloper]

You need a CPU to use the device though...

Thanks for the video. 🇧🇷
