Power Jack Pin or Socket The laptop will not charge the battery. When
the battery power runs out the computer stops working. We repair power sockets where the power pin has broken or has become
disconnected from the motherboard. In some cases the power connector
makes a poor connection with the G5050ea G5051tu G6062ea G5010em G6097eg jack. This causes arcing
which can generate enough heat to melt the G5050ea G5051tu G6062ea G5010em G6097eg dc jack and the
power pin may become lose. It is best to get the HP power socket repair before the battery is totally depleted as this can cause permanent
damage to the battery.

LCD Backlight & inverters The laptop switches on but the screen
remains dark. In some cases a faint image is visible on the G5050ea G5051tu G6062ea G5010em G6097eg
screen. This problem can be caused by a faulty G5050ea G5051tu G6062ea G5010em G6097eg fluorescent light,
inverter, video cable or a problem on the motherboard.
Backlights use very high voltages and it is easy to cause damage to
the system if they are not correctly handled and installed. Our
engineers can replace the backlight lamps in most TFT/LCD screens
including the new xbrite panels. We can perform repairs on some very rare
inverters.Our engineers are trained using broken
LCD panels before they can work on a customer's LCD/TFT unit.

Secondhand
or Used HP G5050ea G5051tu G6062ea G5010em G6097eg
Buying a used laptop is a risk. You may find that the battery
does not accept a full charge or the laptop is unstable. Most
secondhand sellers consider any laptop that boots into Windows as a
working machine, even if it keeps crashing every five minutes. We
strongly advise customers against buying used laptops with a
DOA warranty as some faults are not immediately apparent.
BIOS
update HP G5050ea G5051tu G6062ea G5010em G6097eg
Many motherboards are destroyed by incomplete or corrupted BIOS
updates. A BIOS update should only be performed if it is critically
important. Don't do a BIOS update just for the sake of having the latest
version on your computer. Ensure that your computer is stable before
performing a BIOS update. Run diagnostics to check memory, hard
drive, keyboard and video graphics. In
99% of cases a failed bios update will make the computer totally unusable
so take a backup of your software and data too. Make sure that you
have a good connection to your mains adapter and that the battery is
fully charged. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER interrupt a BIOS update. Let it
finish, even if it seems stuck and takes a long time.
