Hp pavilion g6 battery dead and not charging, battery light flashes silver and amber

$

Hi,

my notebook was all fine. I left it on whilst I slept by accident and when I tried to use it that morning it was dead.

 

I can not turn it on and there is not light on the turn on button. When charging it with the battery pack in it flashes silver then amber and repeats. If I take it out and charge on own it shows a constant silver light but still will not turn on.

 

I have held the on button for 45 seconds at times and once the in button flashed nothing happened. I’ve tired holding the on button for different times. It nothing will work. 

 

Ive left it to charge with the battery pack in over night but still will not turn on. 

 

The laptop was bought second hand and I’ve had it for 9 months.

 

Im a student and I can’t afford to buy a new one so please can anyone help me!!

 

Thanks

HP Spectre - BSoD issue

I have a HP Spectre, and I have recieved two blue screens of death this past week.
I'm worried as I've only had this laptop for less than a year, and this is happening.

 

The screen showed the following during the second screen:

Stop code: SYSTEM THREAD EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED

What Failed: SPUVCbv64.sys

 

 

Im not sure what it said first time around, but maybe it's likely to be the same problem?

Any help would be appreciated!

Re: Need drivers for Windows 7

Edit: Drivers for HP laptop model 15-BW011DX for Windows 7

 

Hello and thank you for all of your help on this matter.

 

I am going through the same process as the original poster- I will not use Windows 10 until I'm forced to, so I'm struggling with getting the Windows 7 drivers for this laptop. In your first useful post, the two links for graphics and chipset drivers no longer functions. Instead, AMD is redirecting to their software downloads page. I am not sure what products is appropriate to get the right drivers. I ended up typing A6-9220 and downloading the Windows 7 Auto Detect and Install .EXE. Would you say this is appropriate? Will this handle graphics and chipset?

 

Also, sorry to do this to you, but all of your realtek links are broken as well.

 

Thanks again!

Noisy 4-day old HP Pavilion

Hello, I've recently bought an HP laptop and its been so noisy, like I did not notice how loud it was until I was in class and all I could hear was my laptop and the professor. I've been reading all this post how it might because all the programs its dowloading and because it is new but I've literally only downloaded office the firsts day I got it and have not anything more. Should I just return it, is there anyway to stop it from being so loud? 

 

P.S: I've check the CPU percentage running it is about 6% right now and the noise its making is pretty loud!

Hello, I'm the owner of an HP Omen 15-CE018NP (Product ID: 2QE26EA#AB9) and i had a problem: the laptop doesn't start.

 

It shows a black screen saying:

"Boot Device Not Found

 Please install an operating system on your hard disk.

Hard Disk - (3F0)"

 

It gives me an option to run a system diagnostics pressing the "F2".

When i do and check for the hard disk it shows:

"Smart check: Failed

Failure ID: OLMXX3-91G9AC-MFPURA-608703

Product ID: 2QE26EA#AB9

Hard Drive 1

Current Version: 1.21.0.0 - BIOS"

 

What can i do to solve this?

 

Thank you in advance.

Hello to all, 

I have a problem, or better, my girlfriend has a problem, her notebook HP seems dead.

I've tryed a diagnostic entering in F2 and by the complete system test we know to have a problem with the rapid DST in HDD, we've an ID error:

UBQG7W-8GK9AC-XD7X6K-60R103

 

Now, the question is, have we to change the laptop? is it repairable?

If I don't wrong, it's an HDD problem, hardware, not software, corrupted or broken, have to change the HDD? 

Of course the laptop is out of warranty.

 

Thank you

Recovery Media Fails

Trying to install a new HDD in this laptop.  Old 1TB drive is a mess and has no recovery partition.  Ordered Win 10 recovery media, recieved 32GB thumb drive.  Laptop boots to thumbdrive, goes through the entire process (takes about 3 hours) and then fails.  There is a log file full of PCI Device errors.

 

I have tried 3 different HDD's, same result.  Do I have the wrong recovery media?

Really hope someone can help me.

The last time I used my HP laptop it updated. It is now asking for a password when I switch it on. The problem is I never had a password, I had a four digit passcode but this is not working and is clearly not what it is asking for.

Anyone have any ideas?. I'd be really grateful.

Installed RHEL 7.4 from USB including FIPS mode, STIG profile, and SELinux.

I am missing drivers for the following:

Network, Audio, BlueTooth, WiFi, Video, USB-C Thunderbolt Dock

 

The HP Driver/Download page only has an RPM for the NVidia driver available.  Though without the network card(s) working, I cannot install the dependencies required.

Where can I locate and download hardware drivers for this laptop?
