I have a HP Mini 1030NR which I got as a present, I already have my own MSI Wind u100 which I absolutely love.
Anyways, the HP has a 16GB SSD and I wanted to know if I could swap that with a 60GB 2.5" HDD I have laying around?
would this be a direct swap? how do I go about cloning the SSD first and then restoring that onto the HDD?
I also have a 2.5" HDD enclosure I could use for the cloning...
Can you upgrade a hp Mini 1030nr to windows 7.

Just received my HP Mini 1030NR and love the way it looks, size, everything..EXCEPT....that I have noticed a distinct vibration in the wristpad area on both sides.
As I was adding anti-virus and tweaking as I usually do, I noticed this vibration and wonder if this is an issue with SSD-based laptops.
can you upgrade the ram and HDD yourself?
My other question is what games can it play? I know it may sound trivial, but if I can play some games on it I will
I'm trying to figure out the difference between the two other than the casing (one's metal and one's plastic). The 2140 uses a SATA connector vs a PATA connector. So for $25 extra(lowest config 2140 vs highest config 1000) you get a metal case and SATA connector?
Why would anyone buy the 1000? Am I missing something? Oh and the 2140 has a higher volatage adapter for 'fast charging'...what's left for the 1000?
Is it possible to upgrade a mini 10v WSVGA to a WXGA screen, by just replaxing the screen? Or do you need additional parts? beze, cable etc?
I want to go from 1024x576 to 1366x768
Just found this and was wondering if it can be used in a regular minipcie slot. With every connector of course.
Or something like letting the X-FI chip doing all the work , processing etc. and lead the output through existing onboard audio.

There is a REAL X-Fi chip on board not those lower end ones used in usb and pcmcia solutions.

Where can I find those at the lowest possible price, direct links etc...
I have some issues with my video since I upgrade the nvidia drivers from the nvidia web site. I removed the drivers and I reinstalled the original ones with the same results.
Does the Windows drivers upgrade also upgrades the video firmware as well?
I've been looking at the Mini 311 on Amazon, which is selling for $399. I'm going to send my (slow!) dv2 to my daughter for a spare laptop as soon as the Windows 7 upgrade arrives (which won't be real soon from what I'm reading!! ) Amazon says their Mini 311 has the Ion LE graphics. On the HP website though, they are selling the same system for the same price - but it doesn't have the "LE" qualifier listed. Do the newer direct-from-HP editions have the "full" Ion - or is this just an oversight by HP on their website?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI know that this has the new ION chip, but how far will that go? Like what kind of games will that let you play. I know that this is far from a gaming machine but do you think it would be able to play like d2 and tf2 on low setting pretty well?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to get the HP Mini 110, but am curious as to how long the battery actually lasts, and if anyone has the 6-cell battery, how long does that last as well?
I've looked at a few netbooks already, including dell/toshiba/asus/acer, but I've fallen in love with the HP keyboard and want to go that route.
Also, i know the N270 and N280 processors are 'almost' identical, does the battery life differ on either?
I've been thinking about getting a netbook for a long time now, ever since the firsts Asus EEE was released. I was so sure to get the Sony Vaio P but now after seeing how sleek this machine is (and cheap!) I just can't get it off my mind. @_@
Here's an unboxing vid I found - [url]
The 5101 seems to have just about everything I was looking for in a netbook. It is currently available for $399. Is that a good price or are there discounts (student, etc) that would drop the price even further?
Also, is there any reason to wait? Some new hardware about to be released? Or is Windows 7 going to be worth the wait for a netbook?
I am ready to buy the HP Mini 2140 (maybe the 6 cell too). Where can I buy this right now in Vancouver, Canada? I can't seem to find any major retail stores with these in stock.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am a student looking to buy a new laptop. I've done some research and stumbled on to the hp mini 311. Ive come here to ask whether you guys know how it preforms. I was wondering if anyone that has it can tell me how it handles some of these tasks that i will be using it for:
dfgdsgdsgdfsg
Write some code/and compile
take notes
surf the internet(flash)
watch some movies(i hear it can do hd movies)
How it handles win7 home premium?
which one of these games better?

Or is the Mi OS ment for people who really just want a netbook for internet and small media and nothen more because the OS wont let them do anything else other than what HP gives them?
I'm thinking about getting an HP Mini 311 from the HP website. I plan on getting it with the N280 CPU, Ion graphics and Windows XP (I need XP for some hardware I want to use that doesn't have W7 drivers). The problem is that the HP site won't let me order it with 2 or 3 GB of RAM unless I order it with Windows 7. Is the Mini 311 limited to 1 GB of RAM under XP or can I upgrade this on my own later? I thought XP could address up to 4 GB of RAM?
View 6 Replies View RelatedHp has pulled the cloth off their new HP netbook, the HP mini 2100. Now from what I've read most if not all the specs are same to the mini 1000. Only thing i can see that is diffrent between the two is it's not all black, the keyboard might not be a copy of the famous 1000 keyboard and the 2100 is offering the holy 6 cell battery! which is said to give 7 hours of net time! thats alotta . i mean office work *cough*.
I'll post the artical in a few mins, if this was posted sorry i didnt bump it.
question. is the keyboard on the HP 2000 same as the keyboard on the mini 1000?
Today my HP Mini 1035NR netbook arrived, and I was extremely happy to get my hands on a new toy. Upon opening it up and starting it up I liked how bright the screen is. It's small and light, and looks very cool.
The keyboard is spacious, and I needed only a few minutes to get used to typing fast on it. I do need more time though to become proficient in using the lesser keys, including the Home and End keys, and the function keys which are smaller.
The wireless works very nicely, picking up my home network easily. It's speedy, and downloads stuff very quickly.
The trackpad and its buttons are very responsive. The two mouse buttons being on the side are not a problem for me.
i have a HP DV5T which is awesome. plays all my games, and is quite possibly the perfect laptop. but, has anyone seen how cool the mini note is? dear god, my only problem is justifying the price, and if i need it. i go to college and live in a dorm. would buying the mini note completely destroy the reason i have a $1500 laptop in the first place?
i do work at best buy, and theirs is $399 and it's got 16GB SSD, 2gb HP flash module.
1.) it says it has a "bluetooth bus enumerator"? is that a bluetooth module or no? i do ask because it plays a small factor in the purchase.
2.) secondly, does anyone know if the mini note at Best Buy has that cool HP software on it? our display doesnt, so i do wonder.
[at HP.com in the APP store i can get the same one (16gb SSD, and bluetooth for sure) for $437. i might go there?]
Any one know what type of mini connector this is? MMCX? MCX? MMC?
It is for the internal tuner on my HP dv8t. HP customer support can't help me and the tuner manufactuer, AverMedia can't help me either.

but i had a problem now, it seems the system dont recongise when i insert my mobile sim card after i had installed Qualcomm Mobile Broadband Drivers & HP connection manager.
what make things worst, the connection manager actually unable to install complete due to an error msg: no WWAN card found! (Which i did insert)
I did check with the guides/ FAQ in HP site. but i cant find any modem in my device manager.
The only mistake i made is i forgot to check if this part is working in win7 enviroment before i do a downgrade.
my dv5t has a spare pcie slot, so i was wondering if I can use this ssd. Anyone tried it before? [url]
View 9 Replies View RelatedBasically I'm interested to buy an HP Compaq 6730s and a Mini 2140 netbook.
What I'd like to know is if these things will play HD content?
I have a few Matroska encoded videos of which my PIV desktop refuses to play back smoothly. The sound and video are totally out of sync and on my Centrino based laptop I don't even get sound, all be it I am trying to stream these things off an NFS mount via 54Mbps wireless. I am guessing not enough bandwidth is my issue as the connection tops out at round 1.36MB/s x 8 gives round 11Mbps which minus the overhead on the half duplex wireless connection doesn't leave one with much even though the AP is a Cisco ISR based router!
Well that said I'd also like to know why the netbook, the Mini 2140 has not been released in HD guise in the UK? This is so weird that HP would release this everywhere around the world but here!
As a network and UNIX engineer I am generally consoled into things all the time, meaning SSH sessions and serial tty lines, and I am a bit concerned that the 1024x576 res of the Mini isn't going to be enough. Also for use with the odd video and lots of web stuff browsing/email. No no YouTube :-P
The thing is that the Mini would make a great compact tool in the field so I can take it around to different sites, connect up and use it for my purposes, as mentioned but also network sniffing and scanning to identify and debug faults.
On top of that I would like to know finally about the heat dissipated by these machines.
How much or little it is?? In the past I have had 2 Acer Ferrari laptops and a Hi-Grade Notino 12" which all seem to overheat. Currently my laptop is running at 200 degrees F and although I haven't checked the vent of this system I did check one of the Ferraris and very little dust had collected in between the vent and fan area. That's why if these machines run cooler it would be great, baring in mind that they will be running Sun Solaris and Linux as a dual boot which usually tend to take up more cycles then MS and Apple based OS's.
