4 Removal and replacement preliminary
requirements
Tools required
You will need the following tools to complete the removal and replacement procedures:
Magnetic screw driver
●
Phillips P0 screw driver
●
Plastic case utility tool
●
Torx T5 screw driver
●
Service considerations
The following sections include some of the considerations that you must keep in mind during
disassembly and assembly procedures.
NOTE: As you remove each subassembly from the tablet, place the subassembly (and all
accompanying screws) away from the work area to prevent damage.
Plastic parts
CAUTION: Using excessive force during disassembly and reassembly can damage plastic parts.
Use care when handling the plastic parts. Apply pressure only at the points designated in the
maintenance instructions.
Cables and connectors
CAUTION: When servicing the tablet, be sure that cables are placed in their proper locations during
the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the tablet.
Cables must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the tension required to
unseat or seat the cables during removal and insertion. Handle cables by the connector whenever
possible. In all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or tearing cables. Be sure that cables are routed in
such a way that they cannot be caught or snagged by parts being removed or replaced. Handle flex
cables with extreme care; these cables tear easily.
Tools required 7
Grounding guidelines
Electrostatic discharge damage
Electronic components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Circuitry design and structure
determine the degree of sensitivity. Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some
protection, but in many cases, ESD contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt
silicon junctions.
A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor can destroy static-sensitive devices or
microcircuitry. Even if the spark is neither felt nor heard, damage may have occurred.
An electronic device exposed to ESD may not be affected at all and can work perfectly throughout a
normal cycle. Or the device may function normally for a while, then degrade in the internal layers,
reducing its life expectancy.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the tablet when you are removing or installing internal
components, observe these precautions:
Keep components in their electrostatic-safe containers until you are ready to install them.
Before touching an electronic component, discharge static electricity by using the guidelines
described in this section.
Avoid touching pins, leads, and circuitry. Handle electronic components as little as possible.
If you remove a component, place it in an electrostatic-safe container.
The following table shows how humidity affects the electrostatic voltage levels generated by
different activities.
CAUTION: A product can be degraded by as little as 700 V.
Typical electrostatic voltage levels
Relative humidity
Event 10% 40% 55%
Walking across carpet 35,000 V 15,000 V 7,500 V
Walking across vinyl floor 12,000 V 5,000 V 3,000 V
Motions of bench worker 6,000 V 800 V 400 V
Removing DIPS from plastic tube 2,000 V 700 V 400 V
Removing DIPS from vinyl tray 11,500 V 4,000 V 2,000 V
Removing DIPS from Styrofoam 14,500 V 5,000 V 3,500 V
Removing bubble pack from PCB 26,500 V 20,000 V 7,000 V
Packing PCBs in foam-lined box 21,000 V 11,000 V 5,000 V
8 Chapter 4 Removal and replacement preliminary requirements
Packaging and transporting guidelines
Follow these grounding guidelines when packaging and transporting equipment:
To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe tubes, bags, or boxes.
●
Protect ESD-sensitive parts and assemblies with conductive or approved containers or
●
packaging.
Keep ESD-sensitive parts in their containers until the parts arrive at static-free workstations.
●
Place items on a grounded surface before removing items from their containers.
●
Always be properly grounded when touching a component or assembly.
●
Store reusable ESD-sensitive parts from assemblies in protective packaging or
●
nonconductive foam.
Use transporters and conveyors made of antistatic belts and roller bushings. Be sure that
●
mechanized equipment used for moving materials is wired to ground and that proper materials
are selected to avoid static charging. When grounding is not possible, use an ionizer to dissipate
electric charges.
Workstation guidelines
Follow these grounding workstation guidelines:
Cover the workstation with approved static-shielding material.
●
Use a wrist strap connected to a properly grounded work surface and use properly grounded
●
tools and equipment.
Use conductive field service tools, such as cutters, screw drivers, and vacuums.
●
When fixtures must directly contact dissipative surfaces, use fixtures made only of static-
●
safe materials.
Keep the work area free of nonconductive materials, such as ordinary plastic assembly aids
●
and Styrofoam.
Handle ESD-sensitive components, parts, and assemblies by the case or PCM laminate. Handle
●
these items only at static-free workstations.
Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.
●
Turn off power and input signals before inserting or removing connectors or test equipment.
●
Grounding guidelines 9
Equipment guidelines
Grounding equipment must include either a wrist strap or a foot strap at a grounded workstation.
When seated, wear a wrist strap connected to a grounded system. Wrist straps are flexible
●
straps with a minimum of one megohm ±10% resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper
ground, wear a strap snugly against the skin at all times. On grounded mats with banana-plug
connectors, use alligator clips to connect a wrist strap.
When standing, use foot straps and a grounded floor mat. Foot straps (heel, toe, or boot straps)
●
can be used at standing workstations and are compatible with most types of shoes or boots. On
conductive floors or dissipative floor mats, use foot straps on both feet with a minimum of one
megohm resistance between the operator and ground. To be effective, the conductive must be
worn in contact with the skin.
The following grounding equipment is recommended to prevent electrostatic damage:
Antistatic tape
●
Antistatic smocks, aprons, and sleeve protectors
●
Conductive bins and other assembly or soldering aids
●
Nonconductive foam
●
Conductive tabletop workstations with ground cords of one megohm resistance
●
Static-dissipative tables or floor mats with hard ties to the ground
●
Field service kits
●
Static awareness labels
●
Material-handling packages
●
Nonconductive plastic bags, tubes, or boxes
●
Metal tote boxes
●
Electrostatic voltage levels and protective materials
●
The following table lists the shielding protection provided by antistatic bags and floor mats.
Material Use Voltage protection level
Antistatic plastics Bags 1,500 V
Carbon-loaded plastic Floor mats 7,500 V
Metallized laminate Floor mats 5,000 V

7 Statement of Volatility
The purpose of this document is to provide general information regarding non-volatile memory in
industry-standards based HP Business Notebook PC systems and provide general instructions for
restoring nonvolatile memory that can contain personal data after the system has been powered off
and the hard drive has been removed.
HP Business Notebook PC products that use Intel-based or AMD®-based system boards contain
volatile DDR memory. The amount of nonvolatile memory present in the system depends upon the
system configuration. Intel-based and AMD-based system boards contain nonvolatile memory
subcomponents as originally shipped from HP assuming that no subsequent modifications have been
made to the system and assuming that no applications, features, or functionality have been added to
or installed on the system.
Following system shutdown and removal of all power sources from an HP Business Notebook PC
system, personal data can remain on volatile system memory (DIMMs) for a finite period of time and
will also remain in nonvolatile memory. The steps below will remove personal data from the notebook
PC, including the nonvolatile memory found in Intel-based and AMD-based system boards. Some of
these steps are disclosed in the Maintenance and Service Guides available for HP PC products
available on the product support pages at www.hp.com.
1. Follow steps (a) through (I) below to restore the nonvolatile memory that can contain personal
data. Restoring or re-programming nonvolatile memory that does not store personal data is
neither necessary nor recommended.
a. Enter BIOS (F10) Setup by powering on the system and pressing F10 when prompted near
the bottom of the display, or press the ESC key to display the start up menu, then press
F10 . If the system has a BIOS administrator password, enter the password at the prompt.
b. Select the File menu, then Restore Defaults.
c. Select the System Configuration menu, then Restore Security Defaults.
d. If an asset or ownership tag is set, select the Security menu and scroll down to the Utilities
menu. Select System IDs, and then select the tag that has been set. Press the spacebar
once to clear the tag, then press Enter to return to the prior menu.
e. If a DriveLock password is set, select the Security menu, scroll down to DriveLock, then
select DriveLock password. Select the desired hard drive. Click Disable protection, enter
the existing master DriveLock password, then press Enter to confirm and return to the prior
menu. Repeat this procedure if more than one hard drive has a DriveLock password.
f. If an Automatic DriveLock password is set, select the Security menu, scroll down to
Automatic DriveLock, then select the desired hard drive and disable protection. Repeat this
procedure if more than one hard drive has an Automatic DriveLock password.
g. Select the File menu, then Reset BIOS Security to factory default. Click yes at the warning
message.
h. Select the File menu, then Save Changes and Exit.
23
i. Reboot the system. If the system has a Trusted Platform Module and/or fingerprint sensor,
one or two prompts will appear: one to clear the TPM and the other to reset fingerprint
sensor. Press F1 to accept or F2 to reject.
If the HP notebook model number ends in a ‘p’ or ‘w’ and includes Intel Centrino with
VProTM, reboot the PC and enter BIOS Setup by pressing F10 when prompted. Select
System Configuration, then AMT Options. Then select Un-configure AMT on next boot.
Select Save, then Yes. Select the File menu, and then select Save Changes and Exit.
Reboot the system and confirm that you want to un-configure AMT.
j. If the optional Intel Anti-Theft Technology (AT) was activated, contact the provider to
deactivate it.
k. If the optional Absolute® Software Computrace® management and tracking service was
activated on the notebook PC, contact the provider to deactivate it.
l. Remove all power and system batteries for at least 24 hours.
2. Remove and retain the storage drive or clear the contents of the drive.
a. Hard Disk Drive (HDD)
Clear the HDD contents by using the HP Disk Sanitizer® utility or a third party application
that, ideally, is U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) 5220.22-M approved.
To run HP Disk Sanitizer, enter BIOS Setup by powering on the system and pressing F10
when prompted near the bottom of the display, or press ESC to display the start up menu,
then press F10. Select the Security menu and scroll down to the Utilities menu. Select Disk
Sanitizer and select the desired drive. For a higher level of protection, select Optimum.
NOTE: This process will take a long time, and the amount of time varies based on the
hard drive capacity.
b. Solid State Drive (SSD)
Clear the SSD contents by using the BIOS Setup Secure Erase command option, or by
using a third party utility designed to erase data from an SSD. To run Secure Erase, enter
BIOS Setup by powering on the system and pressing F10 when prompted near the bottom
of the display. Select the Security menu and scroll down to the Utilities menu. Select
Secure Erase and select the desired hard drive.

Questions and answers
1. How can the BIOS settings be restored (returned to default settings)?
a. Turn on or restart the computer and press F10 when prompted near the bottom of the
display.
b. Select File, then select Restore defaults.
c. Follow the on-screen instructions.
d. Select File, save changes and exit, then press Enter.
2. What kind of configuration data is stored on the DIMM Serial Presence Detect (SPD) memory
module? How would this data be written?
The DIMM SPD memory contains information about the memory module such as size, serial
number, data width, speed/timing, voltage and thermal information. This information is written by
the module manufacturer and stored on an EEPROM. This EEPROM cannot be written to when
the memory module is installed in a PC. Third party tools do exist that can write to the EEPROM
when the memory module is not installed in a PC. There are various third party tools available to
read SPD memory.
Questions and answers 27
3. Does the “Firmware Hub for System BIOS” contain the BIOS program? Is this chip writable, and
if so how?
The Firmware Hub does contain the BIOS program and is writable. A utility is required to
perform the write function.
4. In some PC systems, the Firmware Hub for System BIOS is a flash memory chip so that updates
can be written by the customer. Is this true for these BIOS chips?
Yes, they are flash memory chips.
5. What is meant by “Restore the nonvolatile memory found in Intel-based system boards?”
This relates to clearing the Real Time Clock (RTC) CMOS memory that contains PC
configuration data.
6. Does resetting the CMOS configuration memory return the PC back to factory defaults?
The process of resetting the CMOS will return certain system settings to factory default but will
not reset many of the system data and configuration defaults to their default settings. To return
these system data and configuration defaults to default settings, refer to question and answer 1
and follow the instructions for returning the BIOS settings to factory defaults.
