Where do I connect P6 and P7 for my HP 6000? CD-Rom is not working and not recognized by Device Manager. When I opened the tower, P6 and P7 were laying in the bottom. Are they part of the CD/DVD Drive? If so where should they be connected?

P6 and P7 are not part of the CD/DVD drive. They are most likely part of the power supply unit (PSU) or the motherboard. If you are not comfortable working with electrical components, I would recommend taking your computer to a qualified technician to have these parts connected.

FYI, P6 and P7 in my HP Compact 6000 tower are for the CD-Rom / DVD drive. However, you only need to connect one of them into the back of the CD drive. There is a separate connection for the power supply. After I connected P7, I started the desktop & received on screen prompts to activate the drive.
Tesfay, expert? Not so much.

Tv turns on shuts off and the power light blinks 10

Hi,

10 blinks on Panasonic TH-42PX75U is a fault either on the 5V, 3.3V, 9V, Tuner power. The suspected board that is gone to malfunction is either the P board (power supply) or the A board.
To isolate which board is faulty, you have to test the output voltage of the P board through connector P6 and P7 using the multimeter set in DC measurement.
You must get 15VDC (P6) pin 1,2,3.
You must get 15VDC (P7) pin 1,2,
You must get 5VDC (P7) pin 5
You must get 5VDC (P7) pin 10

If there's a missing voltages above, you have to replaced the P-board.
Note : you should placed the multimeter test prod to the said test point prior from powering on the unit to get an accurate reading.
If the voltages are intact, you have to replaced the A-board.

Here's the link for the boards or obtain it from your local Panasonic Service Center.
P board
A board

Please double check the actual part no. of your board before ordering online to ensure you will get the exact replacement.

Also, please check if your unit is under warranty period, avail it because the manufacturer will fix it for free. Opening the rear cover will void the warranty.

Hope I helped you.
Have a nice day!

Presario 6000 desktop wont power up after transporting. Opened cover & I have loose wires that may be the problem. The loose wires are labeled p9 &p7.

Unfortunately, I do not know P9 and P7. Can you tell me if they are multiple colored wires going into a header/connector? If they are single wires or thin wires you may be able to look at your header of wires which connect the pwr button, rst switch, power led, speaker ( 4 pin thin connector ) if p9 and p7 came off here they could be your power switch.

Adding a hard drive to a PC

You need to set the little jumpers at the rear of the hard drive and the cd rom drive. Set the hard drive as Master and the cd rom as Slave. Both devices should then be recognized.
