Hard drive died. Ordered a new one (it's in the mail). Need to get the OS and drivers for a HP Pavilion dv6-6110us. HP seems not to have them. When I entered the Serial Code from the battery compartment, HP comes up with a completely different model. (Trust me, I checked it three times!)

Got my G7 previously stated in another question to the windows seven installer on the startup but it gets halfway through the install and restarts all over from the beginning. Upon further inspection it says that the correct drivers are not installed . I tried downloading the drivers from hp recovery but they will not work for some reason help

 

Omen Laptop will not recognize my external hard drives and 2 USB Flash drives

I have 5 external hard drives one of which is an HP, no problem with this one. A Seagate, and Western Digitals.  Two San DIsk flash drives.  Up until a few days ago all of the above were functioning and displaying on the WIndows FIle Mgr and Disk Mgt in the Device Mgr.  Now only the HP is being recognized and shows up on the File Mgr.  When I plug these directly into the lapt USB port I get beep, the little lite on the drives flashes and that is it, I go to WIndows FIle Mgr of the Device Mgr and there is no recognition of these drives.  This afternoon I tried my extra flash drives that I don't use much and all were recognized before.  This same problem arouse sometime ago and I was able to fix it, problem is I can't remember how I did it. I happened to all the hard drives listed above and the HP plus the 2 flash drives.  Where and how I ended up fixing it was in some properties box that said the current drive was not enabled, I clicked enable for all of them and the hard drives were good to go.  I thought I would give this forum a look before contacting HP support, the machine is still under warrantee for Hardware issues.

 

Thanks and any information would be appreciated

HP pavilion notebook 17 g121wm

I recently got a laptop for my birthday from a friend, however he stated he forgot the bios password I contacted HP and they told me that I would need to send it into a hp repair facility and get a motherboard replacement for $360 I believe they said, I asked to talk to a supervisor to see if there was another way. There is many forums on this product stating that I could be sent a bin file to reset the password to get into bios that says solved however hp had no such fix they stated. This is rediculious this is a bios password that prevents me from acessing the laptop, I tried removing the cmos battery I tried removing the hard drive and waiting hours and reinstalled everything and nothing works. I understand that the bios password is security but passwords can be forgettin and in older model notebooks there are master keys to unlock but in this model is not I will probably never buy a hp product again after the frustration I have been having with the horrible support who just want me to get the motherboard replaced when it works fine, as friend used it a little over a week ago and literally lost the written password is there any other solution I can do? Please can anyone help? 

HP ENVY DOES NOT BOOT/POWER ON

Hello,

My HP envy is just over two years old. Nothing has ever happened to it (so no damage). About a a month and a half ago i started getting this weird screen glitch if I moved my computer suddenly or even typed too hard . Everything would get super pixelated and my computer would shutdown and restart. After about a week of that my computer shutoff one day because of it and would not reboot. My power button would light up and i could hear the fan running but nothing on the screen. Soon after I took it in to the best buy geek squad, they could not service it since it was out of warranty but they advised me to remove the cover and reseat both of my RAMs. Upon doing this, my computer powered on and worked perfectly for about another week or two. Then the same black screen came back where my power button would light up but no screen display. I tried reseating the RAMs and the SSD but no luck. I also followed the HP BIOS recovery and still nothing. Any suggestions to what this could be and how to fix it? Or at least someway top recover my files? Thanks

Upgrading HP ENVY from HDD to SSD (with an OEM factory RAID)

$
0
0

Context – My father has a struggling 2012ish HP ENVY Ultrabook 4-1130us that he uses for personal computing and taxes (he has to keep this tax software intact)

 

The Goal - is to upgrade my father’s HP ENVY Ultrabook 4-1130us (2012ish) that has a 32gb SSD and a 500gb HDD to a Samsung EVO 860 500gb SSD.

 

My Initial Solution – Simply clone the main HDD with Samsung’s migration software, power down and swap the drives.

 

Result – After the swap, the system booted into windows the first time. I powered down and fully reassembled the laptop. On the second boot I got a recovery screen, it did not make it windows log in screen. From the recovery screen I got option to go to an Intel Rapid Storage Tech menu in the bios and the option to reset disks to non-RAID.

 

The Issue – Turns out that the 32 SSD is partitioned and in RAID 0. One partition is a striped and the other is a cache.  After reinstalling the 500 HDD and booting into Windows the Intel Rapid Storage Tech application showed the cache as an accelerator for the main HDD. In file explorer --> drive C --> properties --> hardware it lists both the 500gb HDD and the 32gb SSD…which makes me think the striped partition on the 32SSD is part of the drive C and may be critical to the OS.

 

My Question Is – If I reinstall the cloned new SSD and reset the disks to non-RAID in the bios menu will I lose critical OS related files/data on that striped partition of the 32gb SSD and brick the system? or Can I recover/rebuild the OS from a Win 10 installation media USB and not lose anything?

 

My Second Question – Is there another way to achieve my goal? e.g. Fresh install of Win 10 on new SSD then restore from an ISO image of the original C drive?

 

Additional info – I have found some information for HP’s with this small SSD accelerator configuration and they are all related to disabling the RAID and doing a fresh OS install…This does not apply because I need to keep the original OS and Software.

Windows Update to Multi-Boot with our Boot Rec problems

Hi

 

I have a multi-Boot Envy, Product No.  F1J39AV, with Intel(R) Core(TM) processor  i7-4702MQ CPU @ 2.20GHz, RAM is 12GB,  and dual  hard disks (each 1TB-5400 Hybrid- ST1000LM014-1EJ164)

 

  • My current Windows OS release is 1703, and I would like to update my Windows OS to 1803  KB4467702 (OS Build 17134.407), but I can 't find my Notebook listed in the approved test list :

https://support.hp.com/bg-en/document/c05195282 should  I update or not?

 

 

  • If yes, where is the ISO version to download? I prefer to install fresh windows for better PC performance.
  • What is the best installing sequence (order/steps) to avoid Boot Repair commands (I have 2 OS Windows 10, and Ubuntu)?
  • One more thing how could I get copy or image from Boot sectors, and save it in the HD or stick memory, then how to restore it in the command prompt.

 

Regards.

USB does not recognize devices

$

I have Elitebook 850 G5, the laptop has total of 2 regular usb ports both 3.1 gen 1 (not counting the USB-C).

Port on the left side is marked as charging port (it should be able to provide more power and even when the system is sleeping).

When i plug any device into the port (mouse, communication device, presenter) it gets power, but it is completely ignored by windows. In device manager there is absolutely no change, no sign anywhere that anything was connected. 

The other USB works just fine.

 

I have tried updating chipset drivers, following HP USB troubleshooting guides, re-installing the USB hubs in device manager, checking EUFI settings. Nothing helped so far. 

Any ideas ?
