hey if you've bought this laptop can u please tell me how to turn on the baclit key board on this thing

I had purchased the G1 two years ago for $120 (USD) and it had 4 gigs of ram and a 250 gig hard drive. Upgraded the hard drive to a 1TB SSD and 16 gigs of ram. The last thing I did was changed the keyboard this year. It runs great for the price and very reliable.

Hi, I have elite book i7 6gen 8gb ram. It is literally brand new and I've charged it too 100%. When I unplugged it it appears that 99% battery will last me for 3 hours 10 minutes only. I've tried to reduce the brightness and to run a battery troubleshooting (through the HP Support Assistant) and I've also checked the battery health after running an energy report and it seems to be 100000% healthy(if that makes sense). Do you have any suggestions why is that battery appearing to last me for only 3 hours if it's in full working condition?

how do u insert a sd card in hp elitebook 840

i have this laptop with a core i5 and 16gb of ram, i would recommend you to get windows 10 on it, mine came with windows 7, but i upgraded to windows 10 and i find it to be a good bit faster and even better battery life, i also upgraded 7200rpm hdd to a 1tb ssd and a m.2 to a 512gb witch windows is on, this laptop definitely a great machine. my next upgrade would be a 1920x1080 screen, i don't mind the 1600x900 screen, but the viewing angles suck and i would prefer a 1080p display

Should I return it or there is some easy solution how to fix it ? Also , the battery life it is very short, and it's indicative hours fluctuate even I do not change any settings. I would appreciate if someone could reply to this query.

TheGabryte I would definitely return it to the store. the fan on mine would run sometimes but only when I was using multiple applications. also the battery life should be consistent not fluctuating. I would download core temp and see the temp. shouldn't be higher then 45 Celsius. also try opening the bottom it should be easy and see if the fan is obstructed or has dust or loose cabling around fan. HONESTLY I think it's a motherboard issue. I would return and save yourself the headache.

+@@arqgus2471 Well, I am no expert on these. I have a 850 G4 and an old 840 G1. However there are many different modells of every version out there. For example many different modells of the 840 G1. Different regarding harddrive (SSD or HDD and its size), processor (i5 or i7 and different clock speeds) and other stuff. In general, besides the small visual changes, newer generations have faster processors. But remember that for example an 840 G2 can be different than another 840 G2. To compare them you need the version number. If you know the version number you might compare them here www.gadgetsnow.com/compare-laptops All of them seem well built and looks good in my opinion. Now there is even a G5 available with a bit different design.
