Hello there, I am having some issue with my old Hewlett-Packard Compaq 6910p, the issue are as below:
1: The wi-fi was disabled after a major service and I am having trouble to re-enable it. I have browsed the internet for solution but still no luck, none of it work.
2: The chipset was very hot after I replaced the thermal paste for the cpu, during the process, I accidentally removed the thermal pad for the chipset(965 mobile) and replaced it with thermal paste and there was quite a large gap between the heatsink and the chipset.
Does replacing thermal pad with thermal paste cause the overheating issue? And does replacing the thermal pad fix the overheating issue and the wifi issue?
Detailed specs:
Compaq 6910p
Windows 7 Ultimate
Core 2 Duo T7300
Intel 4965AGN WiFi
4gb DDR2
