'Battery Alert' appears before the 'press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.', however, ' Cooling Fan Alert' appears after 'press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.'

Hi,

First of all: I know that I have been having a problem with my HP Laptop Battery, and with its cooling Fan.

However, I am now wondering what detected this error below as long as it was shown even before  the notification saying 'the press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.' Thus, if the BIOS detected that there was a problem with the HP Battery storage', then this error should have been listed after 'press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.' was passed.

'HP Battery Alert:    The system has detected the storage capacity of the battery stated below to be very low. For optimal performance, this battery may need to be replaced.'

That alert lasted about 15 seconds, and then the 'press 'press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.' is shown.

Next: This is error below showed me::

'The system didn't detect that a cooling fan is operating correctly'

I know that BIOS detected that a problem with 'Cooling Fan' since the Alert of error was shown after passing 'press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.'

Any comments would be highly appreciated

    Yes, it has. However, the first screen shot of the heatsink which is sold for $18.

    However, other heatsinks having the same replace part number and sold for more than $26, such as the second screen shot, don't have the pad in clear view.

    I don't think that the heatsink sold for $18 is better than others sold more than $26.

    I have done

    Zoom in on the photos from both suppliers

    (Copy and paste both to a folder) and open / view each photo using Microsoft's Paint.exe and you can see it's a rubber pad.

    However, pad is still not clear.

    I see what appears to be a black rubber pad that you outlined in your 1st screen shot.

    Does your laptop have this black pad?

    Thanks a lot,

    1- when restart my notebook via Windows 7, then there is no error appears, however, the error only appears whenever I start my computer by pressing the 'turn on' button.

    Try the following:

    a) Turn on your computer using the "turn on" button. Do you see the error message Yes / No ?

    b) Wait about 5 minutes and turn off (not a restart) the computer.

    c) Immediately after the computer has been turned off in step b turn it back on using the "turn on" button. Now do you see the error messge

    Thanks a lot,

    a) Yes.

    c) Yes.

    2- But there are a lot of the same fan/heatsink with the same Spare part number:

    Then since it is your money, pick the seller you feel is the most reliable in case there is a problem with the part they sent you and it needs to be returned.

    3- this one below was suggested by an expert HP community member

    ~~HP Pavilion DV6-6000 DV7-6000 Fan Heatsink 650797-001 641477-001 665309-001 with US **$26.99**~~

    In my heatsink, there is a silver pad located in the part I circled in the images below:  

     

    However, there are no clear sliver pads located in the images below. Do you see any?

    So, however, since the first one is cheaper than the second one, I am confused  which one is better?
