Loud Buzzing/Humming Sound

Everything seemed to be working fine.  Maybe it was my environment that made me not hear it before, but I can hear a rather loud buzzing/humming sound coming from the top right of the keyboard.  This is strange since I've had the computer now for 3 days and have only really used it for 2.

 

HP Pavilion notebook 15-au063nr

 

1) Loud Buzzing/humming sound

 

2) Brand New (little to no use)

 

3) No software has been installed except for the chrome browser

Broken right hinge HP notebook

$

I had bought the said laptop in October 2015 and was delivered to me by first week of November. After 1 year of normal personal usage, the right bottom of the back cover cracked open during closing. There were no prior accidents of any kind to warrant damage to the laptop. Disappointed, when I further checked with the internet, I came across complaints from numerous HP customers who had the same issue due to faulty hinges.

 

On contacting the authorized service center, I was informed that the hinges come in pairs and hence can only be replaced in pairs and would set us back by 6K (without service charges included).

 

This is a serious lapse of quality on HP's behalf as some of these issues date back to almost 8 years. The fact that a well reputed company like HP have done nothing to rectify this widespread issue is truly disappointing and disheartening. Even the recall for hinge issues in 2009 seems to have solved the issue. It is time that we took this issue more seriously. I do not understand why we should go through duress because of a manufacturing defect.

 

I hope they seriously improve their built quality.

I am trying to find the hardware specs on it, but with no success.

Swap SSD from HP Envy to new HP 15-ay167sa

Hi. I have needed to upgrade my laptop to latest Intel i5 (7th Gen) for data crunching work.  The new HP laptop comes with an awfully slow HDD. 

 

Can I just swap the old SSD with Win 10 on it and all my files into the new HP laptop? Will the BIOS be roughly the same given they are both i5 chips etc? Or would I be better installing all my programmes and files onto the new laptop and then formatting the old SSD and cloning the HDD to the reformatted SSD?

 

Thanks in advance!

Webcam module damaged

Hey guys !

 

My webcam (Actual P/N : 708231-595, Generic HP P/N: 813972-001 ) has been damaged. The centred black camera module itself is "loose". It works when It's slightly pressed or bent, indicating damage to connectors on the board.  Putting an image off ebay below for reference. I don't think I will be able to afford HP's price tag for the repairs, a generic USB webcam is less than a fourth of that price. Can anyone suggest a generic 6 pin 3.3V webcam that can be inserted as a substitute? Not many ship to India, Mumbai.

 

Thanks for reading anyway. Just looking for some ideas.

HP Security ID

What is a "hp Security ID" ? and what does it mean when there is a "hp Security ID" on a hardware of an other brand?

Here is a picture of a laptop Ram of a known brand with a hp Security ID label on it:

RAM.jpg

 

 I searched the part number on hp website (here) but it seems this PN is not associated with any of hp products.  What is the S/C number on the label about? and finally, how can I be sure that if the label is genuine or not?

Thankyou in advance for your help.
