If you are having issues with your CP-X440 and need additional help, here is the troubleshooting page. 

The HP Stream 14-CB174WM is a compact and affordable laptop designed for everyday use, featuring a 14” display, an Intel Celeron N4000 processor, 4GB RAM, and 64GB of eMMC storage. Released in 2018, the HP Stream 14 –CB174WM laptop targeted budget-conscious consumers seeking a lightweight and portable computing solution for web browsing, productivity tasks, and multimedia consumption.

On initial release, the HP Stream 14-CB174WM garnered attention for its competitive pricing and simple design, making it a good option for students and casual users on a budget. To accomplish the affordable price for this laptop, HP emphasized cloud-based computing and integration of Microsoft Office 365 rather than relying on more expensive hardware options.

On the other hand, the cost cutting measures HP took to make such a competitive price point also faced criticism in some cases, with its relatively small amount of storage space and modest processing power. Furthermore, while the emphasis on cloud-based computing and Microsoft Office 365 integration offered flexibility and accessibility, some users found the reliance on internet connectivity limiting, particularly in areas with unreliable or slow internet access.

Despite these limitations, the HP Stream 14-CB174WM found its niche among users who prioritized affordability and portability over raw performance. Its lightweight design and compact form factor made it an ideal companion for students attending classes or professionals on the go.

The HP Stream 14-CB174WM is a small laptop with a silver HP logo on the top, and two long rubber feet on the bottom. Because there are many similar-looking laptops in HP’s Stream 14 lineup, it may be difficult to identify this model based on looks alone. On the bottom of this laptop, there is a model number in small, grey font that reads “Model14-CB174WM”. The laptop can also be identified by its serial number listed right next to the model number, indicated by “SN#” followed by a 10-digit code consisting of numbers and capital letters. This code can be entered into HP’s product identifier to determine the device's model number.
