HP Recommended
Product: Pavillion 2160us
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hi I have a pavillion dv4 2160us that I took apart some months ago to clean the fan, only to discover I needed to replace the fan.  I set the dissasembled system off to the side while I waited for a new fan from China.  It finally arrived.  Now I would like to put it back together but I can't remember exactly what silver heat dispersal products were used and where.  I have  silver paste that I know goes over the processor.  But I cant remember if there was also a silver pad(and what type or thickness if so) or not and where it goes along with if there's another spot to use the paste or not.  The manual covers several models and it is impossible to tell what is used where in this case for a 2160us.   Please help I just want to finally put it back together.   Thx!
