im going to be tearing this laptop down completely to replace the faulty dc power jack, taking it apart is easy enough but i would like this manual to reference when i reassemble it. ive been through hp's website and many pages off google and all the sites i found want payment for a download, and i dont have a credit card for that...shouldnt this be available somewhere? if anyone can help me out i would be very grateful, thank you.
edit: also if you know any guides or any info that could help me with the soldering of the replacement that would be awesome...
edit2: oh and fyi the actual laptop is a zt1175

The best advice i can give you is to get some paper, draw out a layout of what went were, and place the relevant screws on that section of the diagram. Just don't knock it over!

just thought id let you guys know i found the service manual here,
http://www.elhvb.com/mobokive/edwin/lapt...ok%20xt1500.pdf
i have a quick question, figured id ask here instead of making a new thread, the heatsink has a pad on it, when i go to reinstall should i remove it and use compound or am i supposed to reuse this thermal pad? thanx for all the input.

replace it as the pad will be damaged when heatsink is removed from cpu.

edit: sorry its a cavity
a nick...but i put everything together....but my temps are to high....when i start the pc temp is in high 30's....but after awhile it reaches high 50's, havent seen 60's yet....but i read so many guides and some said to apply the small half grain of rice and spread it evenly with a credit card...thats what i did...should i try the other route ala put the half grain in the middle of the chip and then just put the sink on and let it spread naturaly? because i did the best i could but i dont think i spread it on very evenly...anyways im gonna go back in and re apply the compound but what way is the best?

ok so i redid the cpu paste and have been using it for a few days, seems to be a little better, meaning it dosent seem to heat up as fast but heres what happens, it will eventualy get up to 59-60 degrees (idle this can take about 20 or 30 minutes) then the fan kicks in and runs untill it drops to 54-55 (takes about 5-10 seconds) then stops. since this is where the fan kicks in and out im assuming these temps are normal? even when it hits 60 and i have it in my lap it feels warm but not at all uncomfortable, i really wish i had monitored the temps before doing this but i didnt realize i would be removing the heatsink, anyways would appreciate any last thoughts and opinions on these temps thanx.
edit: oh and i used this program called cpu burn-in and when i disable the option for error checking it gets the temp all the way to 64 and then the fan kicks in full speed (at 60 it sounds pretty low rpm) so once again this tells me these temps are ok?
