Upgrading HP Imprint 15-BS545TU

Following changes are done:

  • 2.5" SATA HDD to 256GB SSD with SATA III interface
  • DDR3L 4G 16000MHz RAM to DDR3L 8G
  • Fresh install Windows 10, Libre Office, Sumatra PDF & 7-Zip
  • Windows 10 installer in USB made using Ventoy in Linux
  • Update Windows & install HP Support Assistant
  • Windows update was long & stuck in between. I restarted. Should have downloaded new Win10 ISO
  • Old HDD into an external case with USB 3.0 interface
  • Gave away old 4G RAM
  • Added admin account for me & local user account for wife.
  • First I tried to remove laptop back cover myself & failed. Then went to a technician
  • Replacements are brought from Amazon. Cost around 3k INR & 1 day full effort

Few more problems are there:

  • Audio is not clear. Not sure if driver/settings/hardware problem
  • In device manager, some drivers are missing. HP Support Assistant does not do anything
