It's hard to tell, but it could be that, when the laptop fell, some cable inside the case moved out of its place. Inside laptops, there are many ribbon cables, and these are held in place with little more than a light pressure. A sudden movement and they can loose contact. The screen is...

The 3.5 mm Jack is the standard sound jack that has been around since the 80's. The colour of the jack is irrelevant. It's true that for several years already there's some colour coding, and normally the sound outputs are now light green, but rest assured that you don't need anything special to...

Not sure what the problem is, indeed. Here's another person who had the exact same problem: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24443827/reading-an-integer-from-user-input There are examples on alternative ways to handle the problem (using parsing of a string variable) that seem to be better...

I have the Oculus Rift, and i wanted extension cables (for HDMI and USB3): i had to make several purchases, and test each cable individually. Some worked, many didn't. I have seem in forums that Vive is similar in that respect, and that cable compatibility is sketchy. So you may have to spend...

Yes, the Service Manual (http://h20628.www2.hp.com/km-ext/kmcsdirect/emr_na-c03424153-1.pdf) indicates that CPU can be changed, see page 90 for a list of compatible CPUs and for instructions on the process.

To the best of my knowledge, there's no such thing as a "connect to a projector" link. Now, a projector is basically just a screen, a monitor. And windows recognizes them as such (i have a couple of projectors at home). So what you would have to do is connect the projector to the laptop using...

Ok, sorry, my Windows is in Spanish, so not sure how the items in the menus are named in English. Anyhow, this is something you want to address from the "Default programs" section of the Control Panel (the classical control panel, not the new Configuration section of windows 10; to open the...

No, you can use that pad, no problem.

For some reason, your operating system has linked PSP to some actions, you need to change that: go to the Control Panel, then Programs, then Predetermined Programs (i use a Spanish version of Windows, so the names might be slightly different on your PC), then "Establish predetermined programs"...

Uninstalling the graphics card driver won't make your laptop faster, where did you read such a thing? Most likely, your laptop is as fast as it will ever be, there's little that can be done with laptops. Normally, the only 2 ways to make a computer faster are switching to faster parts (but on...

You can't, if the screen brightness is already maxed out, that's all you will get. There's no solution to this... Another monitor! :)

A reasonable fear. Honestly, i couldn't say. If it's easy, there (Mexico?), returning something to amazon, i would order it, try it, and if it won't fit, return it.

Apparently yes, it has the same ratings (65W, 19V, 3.42A) as your laptop's, so yes, it's a match.

Yes, your laptop can be hooked to a second monitor, as you have an HDMI-out port. You would need a monitor that accepts HDMI input (most of them do), or else you would need to use an adapter. As for which monitor, check your prefered store and chose one you like. Note however that the GPU in...

Well, i'm sorry then, i don't think i can help you. Good luck!
