BIOS of HP Pavilion dv6-6175 sf AHCi

Hi, I want to install an SSD in my HP Pavilion laptop dv6-6175 sf.

I read that I have to set my bios in Ahci mode before installing a new copy of windows again

on my new ssd but I don't seem to find that option in my bios. Is the mode Ahci is defined by deafult?

Thank you.

Hello

HP bios are fairly locked and you will not see the option, but AHCI is the default setting.

Kind regards

    Hi @Dawson8879 ,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. It's a great site for information and questions. I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion Notebook dv6-3032sa and issues with the BIOS. I recommend to restore the default settings of the BIOS withthis documentby selecting the reload the default BIOS settings. This will have the BIOS check the connected equipment. Flashing the BIOS is something I do not recommend it could brick your system and stop all functions.

    Here is a link to options for recovery.

    I hope this helps.

  • Pavilion dv6-2170eo: UEFI does not work on the Pavilion dv6-2170eo

    I updated the BIOS on my Pavilion dv6-2170eo of the e.17 release (I think) for F.1CA, the last of them. I have installed Windows 8.1.

    As there was no partition HP_TOOLS, I could not use the BIOS Setup. I created a HP_TOOLS partition and installed the HP System Diagnostics UEFI, sp52093.exe, but I can't always run the tools of diagnosis or the configuration of the BIOS. When I press ESC, F2 or F10 when booting the computer locks.

    If there is no other solution, I would like to go back to an older version of BIOS, without EFI, because it worked well before. Where can I find such a version?

    Forget it. I misunderstood the problem.

  • Activate the AHCI on HP Pavilion Dv6-2119tx (WF606PA)

    To install an SSD for my HP Pavilion Dv6-2119tx (WF606PA), I had a quick glance in the bios but no option to turn on AHCI as going to reinstall Windows 7 as do not know if my laptop can handle Windows 8.

    If you want to upgrade to an SSD do yourself the favor of buying in upgrade kit with a sata to usb cable and software for cloning.  That he will do a pretty painless upgrade.

    Since there is no option to change to AHCI in the BIOS, you will need to do after installing Windows 7 in the registry.

    See this document from HP for more information on installing a SSD.

  • HP Pavilion DV6 3122TX: updated the BIOS F.29 don't switch HP Pavilion DV6 3122TX Ati graphics card

    Hello

    I have HP Pavilion DV6 3122TX and recently I was updating my drivers and software from the HP Web site for my laptop. Everything was done smoothly. As I updated my BIOS, I noticed that I was not able to switch between ATI Radeon 5650 and Intel HD Graphics, then I was also shocked that he wasn't showing a charger plugged into icon too. Although the battery was charging but didn't show any icon for it. I am running Windows 7. After a few days, my battery was went wrong and was not in charge. I bought the new battery from HP Store for my laptop, and then after a few days now he is dying too. My computer laptop suddenly stops on about 30% of battery remaining and battery does not charge. I arranged another charger and plugged, but once more. I gave the laptop to the service center local and got NO from them as well. They couldn't find the problem. After a lot of research and reading messages HP, I finally understood that it was the problem with the BIOS Update and Windows 7. So, out of curiosity, I installed Linux RedHat 6 on windows 7 and everything was OK. But I am a graphic designer for Linux is not a good choice for me. I want to just restore my BIOS in its original version of the default BIOS. Please kindly help me to get my original BIOS. I tried everything on my hand. I also ask HP to the original versions of the drivers like BIOS on its Internet site. My laptop is dying. Please, Experts, I need your kind assisstence. Thanks in advance

    @AbdulRaheem25

    Create the key USB HP Diagnostics of material 3-in-1 PC and boot to it.

    If you updated the BIOS from the old version will still be in a folder of your operating system. Use the method I proposed to get it back.

    If you are unable to read the instructions on the web page of Diagnostics of material for the HP PC, then I suggest that you pay someone to do it and create the flash drive for you.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-7029wm: BIOS display on an external monitor

    Hello

    The screen of my laptop has been broken for quite awhile now and I tried to find a way to be able to view the BIOS on an external monitor.

    I tried pressing f2 and f8, f10 or esc on startup and try using f4 to toggle the display without result.

    As a side note, when I press f10 if I try to press keys f later my computer makes a high-pitched beep, I don't know if this means anything but I feel like it is worth noting. I use an external keyboard, so I don't have a fn key, if all that matters.

    Finally, I tried to disconnect the front lcd screen but my attempts to disassemble my laptop in the past have not exactly well and I do not trust myself without ruining things more far.

    What I can do about it, or am I out of luck?

    I'm afraid you're out of luck when it comes to BIOS on external monitor display. The switch of the F4 does that once the computer is started. Same goes for making a recovery system - several have posted asking how to see recovery on external monitor... screens cannot be done.

    Your Service and Maintenance Guide should help with reeplacing lcd.
