    What do you need for 3d Development in a laptop.

    Hi there, I've been using HP laptops for the last 8 years or so, do a lot of 3D renderings/simulations using Max/Blender plus a heap of other stuff. Sometimes models up to 700Mb plus. HP dv6000, 8Gb RAM, Radeon Mobile Graphics, i7. Disk transfer is a little slow and in summer the fans blow a bit...

    hp dv7 hard disk error after disassembly for cleaning

    Also try.... If you have a recent model notebook (<2 years old), you often have to tap the ESC key at the beginning of the HP welcome screen to access the various menus such as accessing the BIOS.

    Can you try tapping F10 as soon as boot up, just keep tapping until it gets into BIOS. This should be able toget into way before the no boot device error. Let us know how you go.

    hp dv7 hard disk error after disassembly for cleaning

    Hmm, well certainly wont make things worse by doing a restore except losing all your stuff. But if you can't read your HDD not sure how you'd d a factory restore. Can you try to enter BIOS? http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware/how-to-enter-bios-pavilion-dv7/td-p/1009781

    hp dv7 hard disk error after disassembly for cleaning

    hey there. Do you have another computer in the house? You can buy a USB adapter to run the laptop hardrive as an external, get what you need off it and check if all OK that way.

    My laptop cursor moves by itself and starts rapidly clicking

    No worries. Good trouble shooting mate well diagnosed. Maybe some thing on screen or a driver conflict.

    My laptop cursor moves by itself and starts rapidly clicking

    Man that's random! Try a few things: unplug mouse - does it still do? plug mouse back in and disable trackpad - does it still do? different mouse? different usb port?

    help with picking headphones

    Bose are pretty darn good mate. I also use Senal Studio Monitor for field mixing, very comfortable, lovely sound and changeable ear-pads. Sennheiser also good though those are my stand-by pair and ear-pads have worn out, flaking away. Common problem. Just stay away from Beats and you'll be fine...
