DV9000 Disassembly Tear-down Part 1

How To Disassemble the HP DV9000 series Notebook's / Laptop's Disassembly Tear-Down with photos.

How to take apart HP Pavillion dv9000

Tear down Guide for the DV series laptops from HP and Compaq

This is a quick post showing a DV9000 tear-down.

Level of experience needed: Advanced (this is not to say anyone should not be able to do this it will just take more time)

Time for Tear-Down: 30 min. (including taking pictures) this thing is a monster with the 17" screen.

***Now here is a video showing it done in under 15 min check it out***

What is needed: Clean Space to work you should have an anti-static mat and wrist strap as well.

make sure you discharge any static build up before working on any electronic components
and if you get up to get coffee or any other reason discharge again before touching anything

****** Warning this will void your warranty (if you still have one) and can render your laptop useless if you do something wrong if you are not comfortable taking this or any electronic product apart have a qualified Service Technician do if for you I take no responsibilities if you decide to to this your self. There is always a risk of electrocution as well capacitors can retain a charge and the power supply as well as the battery should be removed when any repair is made. (have to do this warning just a CYA thing) OH BTW DON'T DO THIS (ok that should cover me)********

Tools you should have






Every thing in the top Black tool kit was not used in this tear-down but is good to have when you are working on computers.

The Screw Driver kit in red is a great cheap kit for 12$ at your local Tool King, Checker Auto Parts, or Wal-Mart.

Next is the Laptop.

**** Side note here .. I can't get over this series of laptops from HP they are glossy all over and have the cool quick touch buttons on the top.. and the screens are just glorious to look at ...





Flip the notebook over and I have circled all of the screws you can get to with out taking any of the panels off yet.



Take the battery out and you will find 6 small silver screws that hold the Quick Launch assembly.

**** Just a note here ... all of the external screws will be black from the bottom .. the other screws inside of the compartments are mostly silver that should help a little bit in organization so you know where most of them go.*******





Take the Hard drive cover off and you can see the pull tab for the hard drive

Carefully pull on the tab and the hard drive will come right out.



After you remove the hard drive you will find another small silver screw simmilar to the ones in the battery bay.

Next to the hard drive bay is where the network card and memory modules at this time you should disconnect the Wi-Fi cables you will have to pull those up through the system board later.  Also remove the screws in the card and remove the card it self.  These screws go through the system board and attach to the top assembly.



***** "The Best things in life are Free" (quote from somewhere idk)..... but if this site has helped you in any way ....

DONATE!!!!

or buy a guide...
*****



Next is the Secondary hard drive bay... **** now this is really cool if you ever wanted a terabyte laptop this is it ... you could stick another 500GB hard drive or more.. ****

In this bay there are 3 more small silver screws to remove




This screw most likely was already removed but this is the one that hold the DVD-RW / CD ROM in place .. after it is removed just grasp the drive and pull it out.


 

That is all there is for the bottom of the laptop.  This is the way I keep the screws organized .. some folks use Styrofoam or something else to keep them organized .. I just use a white piece of copy paper and put the screws upside down on it the way they came out ... you could label them as well ... but its up to you how you remember where everything goes.
