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.

6 Backup and recovery (Windows only) Windows 7 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. Therefore, HP recommends that you download the Disaster Recovery utility SoftPaq, and then extract it to a USB flash drive as soon as possible after software setup.
Creating a copy of the hard drive The back up drive function of BackOnTrack creates a Disaster Recovery Set that is an exact image of your hard drive data. You can back up the image to an external hard drive (purchased separately). To create a Disaster Recovery Set using BackOnTrack, follow these steps: NOTE: Be sure that the computer is connected to AC power before you start the backup process. 1. Click Start, click All Programs, and then click Roxio. 2.
Downloading and extracting the Disaster Recovery utility To download and extract Disaster Recovery, follow these steps: 1. Connect a bootable USB flash drive or external drive to a USB port on your computer. 2. Open your Web browser, go to http://www.hp.com/support, and select your country or region. 3. Enter the SoftPaq number SP42226 in the Search box, press enter, and then follow the onscreen instructions. 4. Click Download only to save the file to your computer. 5.
Using the Instant Restore utility You can restore your computer from Windows when the operating system is functioning. If the operating system is not functioning, you can also access the utility by restarting your computer. NOTE: Help. For more information about the Instant Restore utility, refer to the BackOnTrack software Using the Instant Restore utility when the operating system is functioning To recover information when the operating system is functioning properly, follow these steps: 1.
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
3. Open a word-processing document, click Edit, and then click Paste. 4. Save the document. ● You can back up your information to an optional external hard drive, a network drive, or discs. ● When backing up to discs, use any of the following types of discs (purchased separately): CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R, DVD-R, or DVD±RW.
