AC adapter, HP Pavilion DV7 4040ss

Hi, I have a HP Pavilion dv7 4040ss i7.
I have an adapter 90W (Smart adapter, not the original one), but it seems that the computer cannot operate at full performance. Do I need an adapter 120W?

Thanks in advance.

Hello

This model needs adapter 120W.

  • Power adapter - HP PAVILION DV7-3150EQ

    Hello

    I bought the HP PAVILION DV7-3150EQ, and it stops itself almost instantly after the initialization of the operating system (just at the moment where the HP Setup programs starts). I have two suggestions for this topic:

    1. the CPU heats too quickly and the protection of the motherboard turns on and off the computer.

    2 in the specification of the product, I noticed the power adapter must have 120 W power (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01997646), but I received with adapter 90 W (adapter fault current may have been replaced by the Distributor, I don't know), and what I think, is that it does not provide the computer with enough power so it shuts down. What I mean, is there a strict rule on food and their use adapters (specified model should be used with the adapter specified etc..)

    Can you guide me I just think, or there might be another problem.

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply erico.

    I was looking for an explanation on the closure and the motherboard overheating protection seemed reasonable to me. I was wondering is this a common problem or I am luck one of perhaps hundreds of thousands made notebooks with Core i-5?

    I removed the battery and left it on the power adapter, but it's the same thing.

    I did not understand you completely clear. You mean that even with less powerful adapter(>120 Watts) the laptop should work well, and the battery should be charged, but for once more. Or should I contact my supplier and only get the right adapter (120 Watts).

    Best regards

    Contact your provider and ask so he could be replaced by the model in the specifications of the laptop. The 90 Watt power adapter will work, but this isn't what has been specified to be included in the purchase.

    I suggest that you try a hard reset

    Remove the battery and the AC adapter.

    Press and hold the power adapter for > 15 seconds.

    Plug the power adapter (with the battery always off)

    Press the laptop power button.

    Your laptop is now boot into Windows?

    If it is not then

    Press the power button and press the F8 key to enter the BIOS.

    If you are able to enter the BIOS and make the memory test.

    Please post your results here in your thread.

    Hey @dct1954 ,

  • HP Pavilion dv7 Bluetooth adapter no longer works

    HP Pavilion dv7.  #ABC product number WQ641UA.  My built-in bluetooth stopped working a few weeks ago. It caused an error from Outlook that seems turned off the bluetooth adapter.  Yesterday, the HP support assistant recommends an upgrade of the Bluetooth software for the wireless Broadcom 43224AG card.  Software will not load because it cannot detect the Bluetooth adapter.  I don't know how to re-enable the bluetooth feature.  It does not appear in either the BIOS or Windows Mobility Center.

    Yes... seems to be a problem with the hardware only. As a result of the manual, you can also try reinstalling the Bluetooth card once.

    You can get the Bluetooth card replaced either by calling technique supports directly or if not under warranty you can order it online at HP parts store. You can buy the piece by calling technical support also.

    HP parts store

    Enter the serial number and the number of the product in the link above and it will show you all the spare parts available for your laptop. The contact number for Bank of parts is also listed in the link. If the part is not available it also will show you all dealers allowed to the Canada.

  • Pavilion DV7-3165DX, Atheros AR9285 WiFi adapter, communication and incompatibility issues

    After much research, I decided to buy a Pavilion DV7-3065DX. Then, I walked to my local Best Buy to say the 3065DX had been abandoned and was no longer available for purchase. However, the 3165DX, his successor had arrived and was very similar to the previous generation. After a brief discussion to justify the increase of prices with myself, I gave and was sold.

    Within hours, I was in College, trying to connect to the WiFi network without success. After several hours becoming more and more frustrated, I decided to call it closes unexpectedly. Rushing home after class, I plugged the new Linksys WRT160N, I had also bought wireless router and configured on my desk. Once completed, I tried to connect using the new Pavilion. To my surprise, it worked! (And no problem whatsoever no less). So, apparently, the wireless adapter works, but does so only on some networks.

    A week later, I tried to connect to a number of public and private WiFi networks of different types with limited success. Most importantly, I am able to connect to my home network, but not to the public networks in my college or city libraries. At one point, the Office for my college indicated that my WiFi adapter is one of a handful of cards on the list of incompatible devices to their network. As it was to buy the laptop in the first place, I am extremely frustrated.

    I turned to the support pages of HP for a solution. I considered a update driver despite the use of the HP Wizard to keep abreast on all software downloads and updates. To my dismay, product for the Pavilion DV7-3165DX page lists of Broadcom WiFi adapter, which does not correspond to my hardware (Atheros AR9285). What's worse, is that the manufacturer's website offers no driver downloads to customers that its site is adapted directly to product manufacturers.

    At this point, I'm increased and not sure what to do. I am already attached to this laptop. Apart from the war with his fingerprints on its black and shiny chrome surfaces shiny, the problem with the Atheros WiFi card is the only problem that I had. I hate having to go through the ordeal to return, and I do not think that this problem requires the sending of the product to HP for repair. Furthermore, I believe that if it came down to one of those, I simply return the product and find my way to another product by other manufacturers in total.

    This certainly isn't the experience I had hoped with my first purchase of HP.

    Any suggestions?

    I have the same question... However with me the solution wasn't in the pilot. I spent 3 hours on the phone with technical support, try to understand.

    What it comes down to say that Atheros AR 9285 is a shi * ty wireless card. It supports 802.11n Protocol, but only 2.4 GHz (the same as the b/g frequencies). My Cysco wireless router was broadcasting 5 GHz Wireless-N and AR 9285 was not able to detect it. Once I changed the router settings to allow 2.4 GHz Wireless-N Networking, the Atheros card was able to connect under the Protocol N. However, the maximum speeds of 2.4 GHz card are slower than 5 GHz card.

    I wish they would give an option to choose what wireless card to install in my laptop. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. I'm always done what they me screwed on.

  • Pavilion dv7 WC159EA #ABU: replacement of the network adapter on HP Pavilion dv7-3111ea

    Can you tell me what is the best card available and compatible network for my laptop? I'm looking to upgrade, for better performance and speed overall, which is currently averaging around 35Mbps on speedtest on a ~ 100 Mbps Broadband fiber optic (Virgin UK).

    Here's what he said:

    Wireless options integrated wireless LAN (WLAN) using the wireless module:
    Module of Half-Mini Card WLAN 802.11a/b/g ■ Intel 5100
    Module ■ 4322 Broadcom 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN
    Module ■ Broadcom 802.11a/b/g WLAN

    If you can find a half-height intel 5300 for HP I would try that but also look at the 4322 broadcome which would indicate that one is dual band of its identifier. But my money first of all find a low-profile 5300 indicating he works for hp then if it does not move from Broadcom. But that is you can risk losing money if the 5300 does not work. That's what I'd do, but does not mean that you should go this route.

  • Add internal bluetooth adapter for HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx?

    Hello, I have a HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx and I was wondering if it would be possible to make my laptop bluetooth capable and if yes, what cards are compatible? I was able to add maps to other laptops (mainly Dell) and during the surching for a repair guide and my one dismantle, so maybe one of these it may be, I found some empty connectors. The guides I found was not clear about a module for my model. I was also trying to find the model of increased mine which would map already in it, but no luck. Any one out there able to help out me? I want to continue to use my mouse bluetooth and headset.

    It is one of the guides that I thought would help but on 87, he talks about model dv7-40XX using the 537921-001. I'm looking on the wrong page? When I tried to talk to HP they kept giving me the run around and wouldn't even tell me if it was possible to add bluetooth to it.

    Don't worry about this. Take a look at page 1 and the "Product Description". Dv7-4000 is said by Dv7-4299. This is why it says on page 87 Dv7-40XX because it was intended for all the notebook Dv7-4XXX mentioned in the Product Description. I guess that all laptops Intel in the series use the same motherboard, so the required location for the bluetooth module should be there...

  • HP Pavilion dv7: unable to connect to the Internet

    I can't access the Internet via ethernet or wireless. It seemed to happen after an update of Windows 10.

    Other computer and android phone can access the wireless. When I click on the wireless icon, I see different networks, including mine. However, it is said, "No Internet, secure." I ran a diagnosis, saying that the wireless network adapter and the wired network adapter does not work. I tried to update the drivers, but to no avail.

    I remove this update. I have HP Pavilion dv7, produces none. QJ799AV #ABA. It seems that there are no drivers for Windows 10.

  • Pavilion DV7-6195us: reliable wireless connection

    It is of a Pavilion DV7-6195us. It connects wireless to a provided Comcast router/gateway. My connection drops randomly, and my solution was to click on the bottom wireless icon to the right of the taskbar, disconnect my network, wait 5 seconds and reconnect. It is successful in 90% of cases.

    I looked in Device Manager > network adapters and see: Intel Centrino Wireless n 1000 #2, Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter #2, Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport adapt #3 and Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller.

    This laptop was bought second-hand from a guy who did the free update for Windows 10 without doing all the preparation work. I restarted it in Win 7, 64 bit. The laptop is starting in 2012 and I did the best I could to update the latest drivers, but trying to install the latest WiFi driver gave me the message that says that the driver installed is newer than the one I tried to install. The current version of the driver is 15.11.0.7 as of 1/26/2014(Intel Centrino). I don't know why it is a #2, and I do not know whence the Microsoft Virtual Miniport #2 and #3. Their versions of the drivers are identical and are dated from 2006.

    I wonder if they interfere with the Intel N 1000? Should I uninstall them? Is there a driver later for the Centrino N 1000 found somewhere other than to HP support site?

    My goal here is to stabilize my connection to my wireless router.

    My wife's cell phone is a Dell Inspiron which is located not far from where my laptop is, about the same distance from the router, and she has no problem connecting.

    Thank you.

    @skaler,

    Sorry, I sent the graphic driver not the network driver.

    Again, I am sorry that I did.

  • Pavilion dv7: no internet after resetting the computer

    I don't know if I am posting this in the right advice.  I had to do a reset on my Pavilion dv7 laptop, kept my personal files, but now I can't access the Internet.  It shows that I am connected to my wireless network, but I can't go to all the websites that I go into my browser.  I went to Device Manager and went to network adapters.  I can say that the driver works fine and I don't see the warnings or errors on other drivers in Device Manager.  I am at a loss of what to so any help would be appreciated.

    Hey @Esoxdiver,

    I understand that you are experiencing you encounter some difficulties to connect your laptop in WiFi and I want to help.

    Here is a list of steps that solve common problems with wireless connectivity.

    First of all, we have a step by step guide to guide you through the process of diagnosis here:
    Troubleshooting your wireless network and Internet access

    A second option is to try the following steps:
    Network power cycle:
    1. turn off your laptop.
    2. unplug the power to your router.
    3. disconnect the power to your modem.
    4. wait at least 45 seconds.
    5 reconnect the modem and wait for it to come back online.
    6 plug in the router and wait for it to come back online.
    7. turn on your laptop and test your connection.

    Turn off the power to the adapter:
    1. open Device Manager. (Win Key + R > type devmgmt.msc > OK)
    2. expand the network adapters.
    3. right click on the Ethernet adapter / wireless, and then click Properties.
    4. click on the power management tab.
    5 remove the check mark next to allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
    6. click on OK.
    7 test cycle.

    Reset the TCP/IP settings on your PC:
    1. go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
    2. right-click on the command prompt icon and select run as administrator.
    3. in the window that opens type "netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt" without the quotes and press ENTER.
    4 restart your PC and test.

    It can also help to reset the winsock catalog:
    1. go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
    2. right-click on the command prompt icon and select run as administrator.
    3. in the window that opens type "netsh winsock reset" without the quotes, and then press ENTER.
    4 restart your PC and test.

    Reinstall the NIC drivers:
    1. download the drivers from here , but do not run them again.
    2. go to your Start menu/screen and type Device Manager.
    3. expand network adapters.
    4. right click on the wireless adapter and choose uninstall.
    5 install the drivers downloaded in step 1.
    6. restart your PC and test.

    Test an Ethernet connection:
    Explicit. Test if the problem persists on a wired connection to the adapter hardware troubleshooting wireless can be directed to the appropriate areas.

    Test another connection:
    Many people excluded their home network as a problem if another device working on the same network. Networking is not as simple as that. Each device interacts differently with your router or modem and it is impossible to exclude the settings for this device until the laptop has been tested on another network.

    If these steps do not resolve the problem, try this document published by Microsoft for network management issues: wired and wireless network problems. You can change the operating system with the drop-down menu in the upper right corner of the document.

    The above steps are presented by @Great-Christine-Tree

    I hope this helps. If so, please hit the Thumbs Up and accept as a Solution.

    See you soon,.

  • HP Pavilion dv7 button walk / stop does not

    Hi, I recently had my Hp Pavilion dv7-1245dx Entertainment Notebook (to the best of my knowledge bc, I can't look it up in my product number) fixed some viruses and malware that caused random stops and freezes. My laptop worked fine after that the fix so I installed the latest updates to better protect my laptop but when I left and my laptop came into fashion 'sleep' it would not respond and the screen was black. I stopped using the power button and it turned back. The computer does not start and the flash caps lock button three times which means a problem of memory, according to HP support, that happened before I got my laptop fixed. Later, I unplugged the AC adapter and moved my laptop but when I tried to put it on the power button does not respond and I can't do anything with my laptop. Both recommended options for the issue of cap locks and the power button is to go inside my laptop and tinkering with the battery and the memory module. I'm very hesitant to do so for fear of further harm to my laptop. I am on Windows 7 and advice on what I should do would be greatly appreciated. (will give you more information if necessary)

    With respect,

    ACertainGuy

    Your notebokdoes have removable covers for the module of memory in the bottom of the laptop. It's just as shown in the document I linked.

    You will need to buy a Jewelers screwdriver set.  A jewellers Phillips scredriver is necessary.

    Here is a link to a documentthat explains the flashing LED error codes and what they mean.

    The only other option, if you do not have enough confidence to do it yourself, is to take your laptop in a shop that will do it for you.

    Best regards

  • Pavilion DV7-1451nr: Wireless button stays amber

    My pavilion dv7-1451nr turns wireless keyboard blue when I have to reset the motherboard by removing the battery and press the power button / stop seconds, after which I plug in charger to him while leaving the battery and press the power button / stop. After that, I would like to press f10 to enter the bios setup, then I would like to load the defaults, save and exit.

    After doing all that I have explained above, the wireless button becomes blue and wireless assistant would be activated and indicates that the wireless is turned on. If I check in the Device Manager, I see the hardware details and driver wireless populated it and everything should work fine, but once I restart the computer, the wireless button would refuse to start. There is orange. If I try to check the State of the material status and driver WLAN on Device Manager, they would be is more filled it more and wireless assistant will refuse to start. If by chance he started, this would indicate that the wireless is turned off by the Device Manager.

    I had tried uninstalling the wireless LAN driver and reinstalled just in case the problem came from the software side but not solution. Just this afternoon, I have decoupled from the computer and removed the card WLAN, dusted it and replace it back, but the problem persists.

    The type of wireless network card is Atheros AR5007 802.11 b/g WiFi adapter. I noticed something this afternoon, however, after having checked the service manual for the computer, I realized that there is specific types of the wireless card compatible for specific regions. For example, the number of appropriate wlan spare parts which must be on my computer is 582564-002 and have this with references with the number of spare part of wlan on the wireless card available on my computer that begins with sps 452..., I realized something was wrong. I'll leave that to stop you guys from HP, but I really need a solution to this problem very fast because it's really annoying me. Thank you.

    Hello @LL_Cool_J,

    Thanks for the information!

    I don't know what you mean, when he asked if the model is 50xx or 40xx. Confirming the WLAN Module is a little difficult, because there are several manuals maintenance for this model.  I was able to refine the selection a bit, by comparing the numbers of spare part for hard drives.  Based on this REPAIR, the WLAN Modules you have listed, 582564-002, 593836-001, must be compatible.  However, I don't see the Atheros as option in this manual.  To be on the safe side, you can contact our telephone support HP.  Please use the following http://www.hp.com/contacthp and create a folder for your question and contact HP.

  • Pavilion dv7 docking station

    I want to know if the Pavilion dv7-6b32us will have a docking station.  I'm fairly certain that the answer is, but I would get confirmed.  Thank you.

    Not the kind of glance down. Laptop manufacturers have abandoned well enough compared to consumption patterns and offer only on purely business models. You can always use a docking usb 3.0 and usb 3.0 for such high bandwidth you can have things like video and other ports gateways that work very well. The downside is that a usb 3.0 docking station invoice not the laptop isn't really a docking station for my way of thinking, just a 'port replicator. You can still encore mis put in place on your desktop with the keyboard, mouse, monitor, printer, etc. and have an extra power adapter here in all the time so you just put the phone down and connect two things and you have your office configuration, connectable to warm even.
