• HP Pavilion X 2 11-h003sa keyboard and the start button

  I have a Pavilion X 2 11 - h003sa running Wwindows 8.1. It's less than a week and without any changes to the system (no software update or driver installs) after a restart, the Start button stopped working and when I try to dock with the keyboard, the start on the tablet button remains lit (but unfounded) and the keyboard does not work. By that, I mean the key and the trackpad do not react, are not all usb devices, and even the charger shows not only plugged into Windows. The orange charging light lights well.

  Weirdest part is the only thing that works - he always knows when the laptop is closed with the connected keyboard.

  Any suggestion or help here would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello, James.

  Your X 2 is perhaps responsible got stuck on something, he is unable to perform; This problem can be self-correcting after a full stop and normal reboot of your tablet. Since it is not always easy to determine the power state of a Tablet, I suggest you make sure that is turned off by pressing the power button for 10 seconds, then release. wait another 10 seconds then press the Windows Start button. You should not feel any momentary vibration when you press the Windows key. When you are certain that the X 2 is turned off, try to start normally. I hope that your tablet will resume its normal operation, but if not, I suggest you contact your region (UK?) HP support because several interactive steps may be needed to determine the cause & fix for your problem; which can lead to a very lengthy process if attempted by the rear "n" following exchanges of the forum.

  Find your HP contact information & support options by scrolling to the bottom of this page, to this you see "On HP" on the left. Click on "Contact us" just below this to see the choices to your selected region or country...

   

  I hope you come back soon with news that your tablet is running normally. However, we will also try to answer questions if necessary.

   

  Good luck!

• The appearance has changed, and even the Start button is no longer a circle but the former rectangle that says start after the installation of an update.

  I recently installed an update of Windows for Vista.  The appearance has changed and even the Start button is no longer a circle but the former rectangle that says start.  How can I get the old look back with on the uninstallation of the update?  Thank you

  Original title: updates

  Hello

  It seems that the update was for graphics, as it changed the appearance

  If the update is the problem, you will need to remove it or download and reinstall the graphics driver from your computer or the manufacturer of the graphical Web site map.

  _________________________________________

  Read this information about updates:

  Microsoft gives sometimes you updates for the 3rd party hardware: graphics, network cards, etc.

  You should only get the latest drivers for them to real hardware manufacturer's website, as Microsoft normally does nor those have the most recent drivers available as Microsoft relies of the 3rd party hardware Manufactuer to provide.

  But unfortunately, the only way to know which is the update of the problem is to install them one by one, until you find the 'wrong' for your installation.

  You can do a system restore to get back until it has been installed (which is NOT the best way to remove an update) or follow this method:

  'Remove an update'

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/remove-an-update

  When you have found the issue of update of the list of updates which is presented > then right click on the update problem > select Hide update > and it will not be available to you once again

  Or the other of these two update settings will give you the chance to see what you want to install through Windows updates;

  Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Windows will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

  Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

  But remember you normally only have problems with hardware 3rd party drivers. Other updates are to improve the Performance and security of your system

  See you soon.

  Hello!

  I had a somewhat similar to this problem and that's what I tried.

  He temporarily stabilized my problem but I have a serious type of divorce

  problems with my beloved once Windows 7. However, in your case, it may be

  the solution.

  This is the procedure:

  (1) power on your PC or laptop

  (2) when he started, start pressing and releasing the F8 key till you get the windows

  Fix the Page (I don't remember the exact name, but it's a screen with many options).

  (3) among the options is "Last known good Configuration", click it. See if that fixes the problem.

  (4) If this does not work, then you need to try other options, namely:

  (A) the Startup Repair

  (B) the system restore

  (C) verification of memory

  (D) command prompt:

  (The last option would have been a godsend, but it does not work in the console command prompt.)

  I'll tell you about it...)

  If all the above methods fail, try this method (it worked for me temporarily). This method is an option only when you

  are able to access the above page and when you have administrator privileges. Then, when you're on the screen above, you will see these options:

  Safe mode

  Safe mode with network

  Choose the second option. If all goes well, you will be at the level of the office. On the desktop, right click the command prompt icon. If you don't have a shortcut cmd, no problem. Press start and type cmd or command. Right click on cmd and then click "Run as Administrator".

  * Now in the command console, type chkdsk/f/r (the space after the chkdsk command is optional). You may get a message that you can schedule chkdsk at the next restart, treatment is (Yes).

  *  Then, in the same type of console sfc/scannow. If all goes well, it will rectify errors of all the files on your system.

  Note: If you please ensure that your battery is 100 pc loaded before you try it. or better yet, let him charge while you do this.

  Keep me posted.

  All the best!

  cause.

  No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
  to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
  its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one

  It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run

• ElliteBook 8460p will not be running when you press the Start button

  Hi Ant classmates.
  
  I am facing a problem with my 8460p ElliteBook. When I press the Start button it won't start and I need to apply some mechanical vibrarions so he reacts to the button. I guess that there is a problem with a connection inside. The thing is that he does not always fail, but it happens more often. I'm afraid to send it to HP support and resume with a message like "the problem didn't see the - up." I'm close to the date limit of warranty, but I need my laptop for 3 more weeks for professional issues. What should I do?
