My HP dv6275us notebook has issues. It is just 3 yr old and worked fine until a couple of months ago. At that time my battery tanked. It showed it was fully charged but the computer would die within seconds of disconnecting I called HP and they advised that I had "cooked" my battery by leaving it in the notebook while it was plugged in. I bought a new one and that solved that problem. Since then it spontaneously powers off and then is difficult to power back up. I sometimes have to leave it sit for awhile before turning it back on. The other problem is that when I am able to start it up it sometimes just sits there and makes noise and never boots up like the hard drive is just spinning. I am thinking I will buy a new computer with the new system 7 but am reluctant to by another HP if this is a problem with there stuff. Has anyone ever dealt with these issues?
This is something that I have have been battling for a few years now as in independent repairman for laptops and desktops. Newer CPUs take more power and as a result produce more heat, However there is a limited amount of room in a laptop to work with. Because of this computer companies have started to place a thermal pad in between the cooling pipe and the PCI computer processor. This allows less heat to be sent to the cooling pipe from the PCI and alllows more of it to be taken away from the CPU. However now they are making PCI proccessers faster and they produce alot of heat, a PCI bridge controles your memory and other deivces and is usually in league with the Hard disk and optical disk controller, It is also responsiable for supporting graphics on 90% of laptops. " very busy little chip ". The problem is that the chip gets so warm that it unsolders itslef partialy from the main board and then either resettles to make a connection, or does not work at all again. This manufactures work around is the leading death of laptops " dirty little secret, Some people can install metal spacers that will correct this and allow proper cooling or the PCI bridge, and yes HP is natorious for this problem. I recommend looking into an Asus. If you want anything repaired you may contact me, My e-mail is [email protected]
