Service considerations
Keep these considerations in mind during the disassembly and assembly of the computer.
Tools and software requirements
Servicing the computer requires these tools.
● Torx T-15 screwdriver
● Flat-bladed screwdriver (can sometimes be used in place of the Torx screwdriver)
● Phillips P1 screwdriver
● Nonconductive, nonmarking pry tool

Screws
The screws used in the computer are not interchangeable. They could have standard or metric threads
and might be of different lengths.
If you use an incorrect screw during the reassembly process, it can damage the unit. HP strongly
recommends that you keep all screws that you remove during disassembly with the removed part and
then return them to their proper locations.
IMPORTANT: As you remove each subassembly from the computer, place it away from the work area
to prevent damage.
Cables and connectors
Use this information to properly handle cables.
Apply only the tension required to seat or unseat the cables during insertion or removal from the
connector. Handle cables by the connector whenever possible. In all cases, avoid bending or twisting
