4 Removal and replacement procedures Preliminary replacement requirements Tools required You will need the following tools to complete the removal and replacement procedures: ● Flat-bladed screwdriver ● Magnetic screwdriver ● Phillips P0 and P1 screwdrivers Service considerations The following sections include some of the considerations that you must keep in mind during disassembly and assembly procedures.
Cables and connectors CAUTION: When servicing the device, be sure that cables are placed in their proper locations during the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the device. 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.
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.
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.
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.
Component replacement procedures This chapter provides removal and replacement procedures. There are as many as 33 screws, in 5 different sizes, that must be removed, replaced, or loosened when servicing the computer.

7 Backup and recovery Recovery after a system failure is as good as your most recent backup. HP recommends that you regularly back up your files to ensure you have the latest data. To protect your information, back up your files and folders. In case of system failure, you can use the backup files to restore your computer. CAUTION: In the event of a hard drive failure, you cannot use your computer to access the Disaster Recovery utility.
Using system restore points When you back up your system, you are creating a system restore point. A system restore point allows you to save and name a snapshot of your hard drive at a specific point in time. You can then revert back to that point if you want to reverse subsequent changes made to your system. NOTE: Recovering to an earlier restore point does not affect data files saved or e-mails created since the last restore point.
Backing up and recovering using HP Recovery Manager If your computer includes HP Recovery Manager, tools provided by the operating system and by HP Recovery Manager software are designed to help you with the following tasks for safeguarding your information and restoring it in case of a system failure: ● Backing up your information ● Creating a set of recovery discs ● Creating system restore points ● Recovering a program or driver ● Performing a full system recovery Backing up your information As
NOTE: The external optical drive must be connected to the USB port on the computer, not to a USB port on another external device, such as a hub or docking station. NOTE: DVDs store more information than CDs, so using them for backup reduces the number of recovery discs required. ● When backing up to discs, number each disc before inserting it into an optical drive.
Performing a recovery NOTE: You can recover only files that you have previously backed up. HP recommends that you use Recovery Manager to create a set of recovery discs (entire drive backup) as soon as you set up your computer. Recovery Manager software allows you to repair or restore the system if you experience system failure or instability. Recovery Manager works from recovery discs that you create or from a dedicated recovery partition (select models only) on the hard drive.
Recovering using the partition on the hard drive (select models only) On some models, you can perform a recovery from the partition on the hard drive, which is accessed by pressing either the Start button or f11. This restores the computer to its factory condition. NOTE: This method of recovery is also an HP Recovery Manager solution. NOTE: Computers with an SSD may not have a recovery partition. If the computer does not have a recovery partition, you will not be able to recover using this procedure.
8 Power cord set requirements The wide-range input feature of the computer permits it to operate from any line voltage from 100 to 120 volts AC, or from 220 to 240 volts AC The 3-conductor power cord set included with the computer meets the requirements for use in the country or region where the equipment is purchased. Power cord sets for use in other countries and regions must meet the requirements of the country or region where the computer is used.
