Computer laptop 15-ay013nr: 15-ay013nr FN keys not working not
Hey guys and girls! I just got my new laptop today, but the fn + F1-12 keys do not work. The FN key works, chrome it registers itself as opening it's own help page when you press fn + f1, but the volume does nothing, done nothing, flight etc. I looked on the site to download HP drivers and cannot find anything. Can't find any missing software help software. Does anyone know where to download the software or activate the button fn?
Hello
You are welcome
What happens if you set the keys fn in the bios to disabled people?
Normally this setting would mean that just pressing f1 - f12 to run the secondary function (i.e. f1 for help, browser f11 full screen etc.), while the primary functions would require that the fn key is held down (IE fn + f4 to view display output options, fn + f6 to mute the volume, etc.).
Should now behave this way or the bios setting has no effect?
Kind regards

I have a laptop that has Windows 7 OEM Home. The laptop had a hardware failure and is not repairable. Can I transfer the operating system of a new generation of computer laptop?
Sorry, but a Windows 7 OEM is not transferable to another PC because it is related to the 1st computer on which it is installed.

Your motherboard breaks down, unless the replacement card is the same your OEM version will no longer turn on and can not be moved or transferred to another computer.OEM of Windows 7 versions have the following limitations of 'important ':
(1) OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft
(2) OEM licenses are tied to the computer 1 you install and activate it on.
(3) you cannot reuse/reinstall an OEM version on another computer or another/replacement motherboard.
(4) the OEM versions cannot be used to upgrade an earlier version of Windows, you must perform a

Computer laptop keyboard acts as the CTRL key is stuck
No particular reason, that I can isolate, the keyboard on my brand new HP laptop will act sometimes as sank the CTRL key. For example, if I type 'problem' when the problem occurs, most applications will be to print this page. It is especially annoying and I can't reproduce the problem... it is seemingly random.
I disabled all the keyboard shortcuts as I can find a way to make keys sticky. I installed all available updates. I removed the keyboard driver and let the system to reinstall. And many other things I could think
The only thing that seems to make the problem disappear (outside reboot) is to bring up the keyboard on the screen. All loading screen keyboard fixes the problem. This leads me to think that the problem may ultimately reside with the on-screen keyboard.
I have not installed software on this computer that came with it at HP except Google Chrome.
Return "no questions asked" warranty will expire soon, so I would like to get this resolved as soon as POSSIBLE
Hello
Try clicking both the left side and right side keys CTRL at the same time. I hope that works for you!Good luckSean -
How can I reinstall vista on a coming under xp?
Hello
Here are the different ways to reinstall vista
Contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought
you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer
Ask them of the exact key sequence
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

Version of LR 5 WINDOWS and MAC computer laptop at the same time, the key question?
Hello! I have the Lr 5 WINDOWS version that works very well. I could use the same key on my MAC? For now downloaded trial version (creative cloud) for my MAC, but all attempts to use my KEY on the second laptop fail. Any ideas? Thanks in advance! Henri
You can't enter your serial number for the 'creative cloud' version, which is managed by the Application Adobe CC Manager. You can use the trial if you want to test the features of Lightroom Mobile and decide if you want to purchase a subscription later.
If you can uninstall the cc version and download the version of perpetual license and enter your license key.

Computer laptop Pavilion dv6-7135nr - router wireless no longer works
I get a red X on the internet icon and my router is no longer will recognize all the networks. I called my ISP and my Belkin router manufacturer. So I went out and rough a new Net Gear router. It still does not. I called Net Gear, and they think it is my wireless card?
Is it possible to determine with certainty if it's a hardware problem?
Maybe I need to download a driver?
Is there a WiFi switch on my laptop?
I have to configure my new router? I'm hoping to use my Belkin router, if it's just a driver problem, so I can pick up the new router and get my money back.
What are some first steps to take? If you need more information, please let me know. Thank you!
HP Envy m7 running Windows 10.Thank you for your response, however, I've done some more research on my own and my keyboard like on/off switch. It is the f12 key, which has this symbol ((i)). I guess I accidentally typed on it not wireless. I typed it and the light turned blue and all is well again. Such a small simple thing that solved my problem. I'll try to find the button solved after this announcement.
Thank you.

Computer laptop Sony VAIO on Windows 8 may not change the brightness
I have a Sony VAIO VPCS11X9E and my screen brightness is at the lowest setting for some reason any. In addition, my FN keys for brightness setting do not work. All the means to change the brightness do not work, this does not include the brightness bar when you go into the settings.
I tried both installation driver, checked for any drivers missing or out-of-date drivers, but the only one who seems to be obsolete is my Intel HD graphics that I'VE updated, but the Intel driver update checker says otherwise.I deactivated AND activated (just in case) the Adaptive brightness, but it doesn't work.I got Windows 7 Ultimate running before but decided to upgrade to Windows 8. Windows 7 has never had any problems with the brightness. Also when I load upward, even thought I have replaced Windows 7 with Windows 8, it still load the dual boot screen, asking me what OS I want to start with. Starting with Windows 7 goes down several times, then it will take me to repair VAIO system. Windows 8 of course takes me to Windows 8.When the laptop starts up, the large letters or "VAIO" is bright and normal and sometimes, but not always, when it comes to dual boot screen, the brightness is normal. However, when this happens, as soon as I move the mouse or click on a button, the brightness goes immediately back down to very dim.When loading upward in another system or startup program, the brightness is fine. For example when I go to Sony VAIO Recovery Center, the brightness is ok. Also, if I boot in something like miniXP or a separate operating system on a bootable floppy or USB, the brightness is fine as well.I tried many patches of driver, but NONE of them work! I tried to boot in safe mode and try to install some drivers manually because that apparently works, but it makes no difference at all.If you could help me, even if this does not work, I would be very happy!Thank you very much.I found how to adjust the brightness on my Vaio that uses Windows 8, I went to
VAIO Control CenterImage qualityOff the brightness of the displayI hope this helps everyone with this problem. -

Overheated computer, laptop CQ61, now "the hard disk does not exist '.
I have reset the BIOS, I held down the power for 30 seconds while the battery is out. I don't know how to put back the hard drive. Is this my only option left? If yes I can't find a video on how, just remove videos. Anyway, can I get the hard drive to scrap and buy a new one, or are a kind of trendy connectors, fried or in ruins and I need to get a new laptop?
Reinstalling the hard drive is made exactly as you did. The only option now is to try to replace the hard drive with a hard drive retail. It is the only way to determine if it is only the hard drive that has been damaged.
If you need help to choose a replacement, post back with the complete model number or product as indicated on the Service tag on the bottom of the laptop. If you know what your hard drive capacity is just be sure to get one at least as large a capacity in order to use your recovery disks to reinstall Windows. It can be larger but not more small capacity, such as whether you have a 320 GB hard drive, now, you could use a 500 GB but not a 250 GB hard drive.
