4 Removal and replacement procedures

preliminary requirements

Tools required

You will need the following tools to complete the removal and replacement procedures:

●

Flat-bladed screwdriver

●

Phillips P0 and P1 screwdrivers

●

Torx T8 screwdriver

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 computer, 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.

Tools required 27

Cables and connectors

CAUTION: When servicing the computer, be sure that cables are placed in their proper locations during the

reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the computer.

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.

Drive handling

CAUTION: Drives are fragile components that must be handled with care. To prevent damage to the

computer, damage to a drive, or loss of information, observe these precautions:

Before removing or inserting a hard drive, shut down the computer. If you are unsure whether the computer
is off or in Hibernation, turn the computer on, and then shut it down through the operating system.

Before handling a drive, be sure that you are discharged of static electricity. While handling a drive, avoid
touching the connector.

Before removing a diskette drive or optical drive, be sure that a diskette or disc is not in the drive and be sure
that the optical drive tray is closed.

Handle drives on surfaces covered with at least one inch of shock-proof foam.

Avoid dropping drives from any height onto any surface.

After removing a hard drive, an optical drive, or a diskette drive, place it in a static-proof bag.

Avoid exposing a hard drive to products that have magnetic fields, such as monitors or speakers.

Avoid exposing a drive to temperature extremes or liquids.

If a drive must be mailed, place the drive in a bubble pack mailer or other suitable form of protective
packaging and label the package “FRAGILE.”

28 Chapter 4 Removal and replacement procedures preliminary requirements

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, and then degrade in the internal layers, reducing its
life expectancy.

CAUTION: To prevent damage to the computer 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.

Use nonmagnetic tools.

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

Grounding guidelines 29

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, screwdrivers, 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.

30 Chapter 4 Removal and replacement procedures preliminary requirements

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 strips must be worn in contact with
the skin.

The following grounding equipment is recommended to prevent electrostatic damage:

●

Antistatic tapes

●

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 plastic Bags 1,500 V

Carbon-loaded plastic Floor mats 7,500 V

Metallized laminate Floor mats 5,000 V

8 Backing up, restoring, and recovering

Your computer includes tools provided by HP and Windows to help you safeguard your information
and retrieve it if you ever need to. These tools will help you return your computer to a proper working state
or even back to the original factory state, all with simple steps.

This chapter provides information about the following processes:

●

Creating recovery media and backups

●

Restoring and recovering your system

NOTE: This guide describes an overview of backing up, restoring and recovering options. For more details

about the tools provided, see Help and Support. From the Start screen, type h, and then select Help and
Support.

Creating recovery media and backups

Recovery after a system failure is only as good as your most recent backup.

1. After you successfully set up the computer, create HP Recovery media. This step creates a backup of the

HP Recovery partition on the computer. The backup can be used to reinstall the original operating
system in cases where the hard drive is corrupted or has been replaced.

HP Recovery media you create will provide the following recovery options:

●

System Recovery—Reinstalls the original operating system and the programs that were installed
at the factory.

●

Minimized Image Recovery—Reinstalls the operating system and all hardware-related drivers and
software, but not other software applications.

●

Factory Reset—Restores the computer to its original factory state by deleting all information
from the hard drive and re-creating the partitions. Then it reinstalls the operating system and the
software that was installed at the factory.

Creating HP Recovery media on page 82.

See

2. As you add hardware and software programs, create system restore points. A system restore point is a

snapshot of certain hard drive contents saved by Windows System Restore at a specific time. A system
restore point contains information that Windows uses, such as registry settings. Windows creates a
system restore point for you automatically during a Windows update and during other system
maintenance (such as a software update, security scanning, or system diagnostics). You can also
manually create a system restore point at any time. For more information and steps for creating
specific system restore points, see Help and Support. From the Start screen, type h, and then select

Help and Support.

3. As you add photos, video, music, and other personal files, create a backup of your personal information.

Windows File History can be set to regularly and automatically back up files from libraries, desktop,
contacts, and favorites. If files are accidentally deleted from the hard drive and they can no longer be
restored from the Recycle Bin, or if files become corrupted, you can restore the files that you backed up
using File History. Restoring files is also useful if you ever choose to reset the computer by reinstalling
Windows or choose to recover using HP Recovery Manager.

NOTE: File History is not enabled by default, so you must turn it on.

Creating recovery media and backups 81

For more information and steps for enabling Windows File History, see Help and Support. From the Start
screen, type h, and then select Help and Support.

Creating HP Recovery media

HP Recovery Manager is a software program that offers a way to create recovery media after you
successfully set up the computer. HP Recovery media can be used to perform system recovery if the hard
drive becomes corrupted. System recovery reinstalls the original operating system and the software
programs installed at the factory, and then configures the settings for the programs. HP Recovery media can
also be used to customize the system or restore the factory image if you replace a hard drive.

●

Only one set of HP Recovery media can be created. Handle these recovery tools carefully, and keep
them in a safe place.

●

HP Recovery Manager examines the computer and determines the required storage capacity for the
blank USB flash drive or the number of blank DVD discs that will be required.

●

To create recovery discs, your computer must have an optical drive with DVD writer capability, and you
must use only high-quality blank DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-R DL, or DVD+R DL discs. Do not use rewritable
discs such as CD±RW, DVD±RW, double-layer DVD±RW, or BD-RE (rewritable Blu-ray) discs; they are not
compatible with HP Recovery Manager software. Or instead you can use a high-quality blank USB flash
drive.

●

If your computer does not include an integrated optical drive with DVD writer capability, but you would
like to create DVD recovery media, you can use an external optical drive (purchased separately) to
create recovery discs, or you can obtain recovery discs for your computer from the HP website. For U.S.
support, go to

http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/wwcontact_us.html. If you use an external optical drive, it must

be connected directly to a USB port on the computer; the drive cannot be connected to a USB port on an
external device, such as a USB hub.

http://www.hp.com/go/contactHP. For worldwide support, go to

●

Be sure that the computer is connected to AC power before you begin creating the recovery media.

●

The creation process can take up to an hour or more. Do not interrupt the creation process.

●

If necessary, you can exit the program before you have finished creating all of the recovery DVDs. HP
Recovery Manager will finish burning the current DVD. The next time you start HP Recovery Manager,
you will be prompted to continue, and the remaining discs will be burned.

To create HP Recovery media:

1. Connect the tablet to the keyboard dock.

2. From the Start screen, type recovery, and then select HP Recovery Manager.

3. Select Recovery Media Creation, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
