I must say mate I'm a Computer Hardware Engineer and this is the most thorough dissassembly and restoration of a laptop I have ever seen. I have also learned quite a bit, thank you my friend you have a new subscriber! You certainly do put a lot of work in and it really is excellent work, cheers mate from Ireland.
this channel inspired me to restore my brother's old laptop ... upgraded the motherboard asus X202e, upgraded the heatsink (now with one heatpipe) change damaged keyboard and battery... thanks all the way from Philippines...
I have to say thank you Andrew. Thanks to your motivating videos, I modded my Toshiba Satellite A500-1GR and painted it like a CVR/FDR (the "black boxes" in an airliner) and I also even managed to put an "unsupported" CPU inside it (Core i7 620M). And it works fine ! =) Greetings from France =)
This was basically the very first laptop I ever disassembled and I learned most of my craft from these. The compaq-HP 2000/G6/D600 etc machines were rudimentary but hold a place in my repair tech heart.
Im from India. I used to watch your videos. And now I had made a laptop from scrap to a high performance one. With higher ram, ssd.. my 12 year old scrap laptop now boots windows 10 pro within 20 seconds now... With the core 2 duo processor.. thanks for inspiring me. Thank you so much.
I still have an HP Pavillion g6 2011 in almost mint condition. It was my first laptop ever and I still use it occasionally as it gives me a sense of nostalgia.
My Daughter had an older HP G6 that I cleaned up used automotive spray and filled up with a clear coat. Replaced the fan, upgraded the processor, ram and put in an SSD drive, Windows 10. Your example is above and beyond the "Call of Duty", great job. Very inspiring.
1 thing that i don’t like about your videos is too much ads 🤣🤣.. but really love your works, there so much things i can learn from u about how to deal with a broken and repairing laptop
OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is my first laptop and still works the best. really touched my heart. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
11:15 When you glue this back together with super glue, you can make this 10 times stronger if you put a layer of toillet paper first, cut the toillet paper a bit bigger than the crack you are trying to glue, than apply the glue on top of the toillet paper, if you have multilayered toillet paper, seperate the layers so you end up with a very thin layer, you may laugh at this but i saw this trick when The Retro Future made his elongated game boy video, he also uses this trick, and i tested it on a broken off fin from my cpu cooler and it actually works very well! It would not hold if i tried to glue the fin back on like you do with the bezel of your display, but with that single layer of toillet paper, its very strong, the cpu fan is in my pc now and has been for the last 6 months and it still goes strong! So give that a try if the bezel cracks again, you will be stunned how good this trick works! Great video man!
I had a laptop with the same case! Mine was the Intel version, though, with a Sandy Bridge i5. I bought it from a second-hand store when I was an exchange student in UK, so it was rather cheap, but very useful.
You can't remove the keys of this keyboard model. It is one time assembly which if you try to take it apart, the keys socket holder with break or snap.
@@reianae.smiley8573 yes, the keyboard itself is a rigid design, and was never designed to be reparable. But I have to admit that HP Laptop keyboard especially for this particular model on the video, is just $5 Brand New.
Your videos are amazing: like your music is lovely, your English is fantastic, the things you fix turn out great and the editing is spot on. Keep up the amazing work!!
For a laptop as old as it is, It did wonders for me with its AMD Config, Found one dead in a parts bin at my school and restored it, lasted me almost several years!
Hi bro, painting aluminium case can be difficult, if the aluminium is too smooth, first you need to sand it, then you need to apply plastic primer and then to apply the base layer. I have painted aluminium but I must say it's hard :D
I was searching on TH-cam for my laptop (hp pavilion g6 1021sv) on how i can make it run better information about it . It is an old laptop 10 years since it came out and i bought it. So i was searching frantically on TH-cam and I stumbled upon your channel. I was waiting so much for that video all this time . Your channel and work is incredibly . You are working methodically and you are doing something that helps others understand that a laptop with little bit of time can get improved and there is no reason for us to throw away our laptops to buy new ones. Cheers keep up the good work!!!
Можно всё сделать проще... Берем обычный канцелярский скотч, и наклеиваем его на серые элементы корпуса. При отклеивании скотча, на нем остается верхний защитный лаковый слой. После очистки корпуса от лака, серая краска легко смывается обычным изоприловым спиртом. После отмывки корпуса от краски он становится идеально черным, и сохраняется металлический цвет логотипа "HP". После сушки покрываем всё это матовым лаком в несколько слоев. Всё... ;)
Gosh, this laptop were used in a war zone...? Poor boy...Far one of the best videos I've ever watched on TH-cam! Absolutly an amazing job on that HP laptop! Really incredible!
You did an excellent job! I watch videos like this in hope of trying to gain some knowledge and experience and learn to repair computer I have, if I ever have the money! You Have A Blessed Day and Night!

the amount of hard work you have taken for this video is not imaginable brother, keep up the good work 😍😍😍
I had same exact model when I was in college 7 years ago.. I think this was the great laptop in terms of long time uses as it's working till now.
The G6 was a line of budget laptops. I have one, in the same colour, and it's a Core i5 with Amd graphics.
Its good in performance if you upgrade the ram to 8 gb you can good games like forza horizon 4, GTA 5...etc
It's so good to see laptops get repaired and upgraded. Less laptops in the landfill.
Nice can't believe you restore this types of laptop
anyone watching this at 2x times speed?

Great restoration and mods! The beauty of the pc platform is the massive backlog of games plus ability to emulate classic consoles 👍
