    Hello

    The AMD 5450 in PC graphics card will support multiple monitors (VGA, HDMI and DVI).  The 5450 also supports AMD EyeFinity which allows bear monitors of odd size (different resolutions).

    You will get best results by using digital connections to the monitors.  It would be DVI HDMI for w2207 HP and Viewsonic.

    If you have specific questions about AMD EyeFinity, please consult the ATI/AMD forums.

    Good luck and thanks for posting on the HP Forum.

  • Modified files HP Health Check and WARNING event ID 11 Wininit Event Viewer

    Desktop HP Pavilion p6 - 2220t - Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit Service Pack 1 - Microsoft Security Essentials - Windows Firewall

    I got this computer in December 2012.

    I started getting the following warning in the event viewer on the 16/09/2014:

    Log name: System

    Source: Microsoft-Windows-Wininit

    Date: 16/09/2014 14:37:12

    Event ID: 11

    Task category: no

    Level: WARNING

    Keywords:

    User: SYSTEM

    Computer: PC - 1

    Description:

    Custom dynamic link libraries are loaded for each application. The system administrator should review the list of libraries to ensure that they are linked to trusted applications.

    The event XML:

    *****

    Just to be sure, I ran a full scan with Malwarebytes, SuperAntiSpyware (free version) and Microsoft Security Essentials. All had own scans with no problems found.

    *****

    Some sites on the internet suggest to get rid of this warning by setting these two keys, the default value 0, but they already are.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\AppInit_DLLs HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\AppInit_DLL

    There is nothing in the 'Data' column for these two registry keys. And there is no list of DLLS.  The string in the warning count is 0, so I don't really know what is the cause.

    *****

    I searched my drive C: for what any change to the date and time that this warning for the first time. All have been linked to HP Health Check.

    There are two components in C:\Program Files (86) \Hewlet-Packard\HP Health Check\Active Check\objects that have been modified on 16/09/2014 05:31. One was named issuelist.xml and the other XML file Config.INI.

    There are 494 items modified on 16/09/2014 14:19, all the in C:\Program Files (86) \Hewlet-Packard\HP Health Check\Guid

    The first Wininit WARNING event ID 11 logged at 16/09/2014 14:37:12. And it records now whenever I start my computer.

    *****

    These changes do not come with HP Support Assistant. Was not asked to download and install updates.  These files have been changed without my knowledge.  I did know about this until I picked up everything that has changed which could hold account of the warning I get now.

    *****

    Anyone know how to stop this warning event ID 11 registered Wininit whenever I start my computer? Someone else had changes in the HP health check recently?  Has anyone else noticed this warning of Wininit event ID 11 their recent event viewer?

    Thanks for any help and information,

    Department of public works

    Old_geekster,

    I know that this is your best advice but I really don't want to go there. Up is simple, get the programs and files on the computer; not so much.  And then there of all the bloatware to get rid again.

    Several sites indicate that this is not a problem, even if there is a list of libraries, as it has to do with the code and can be ignored as long as are listed in the DLL acknowledged regarding confidence of applications.

    At the end of my Wininit he says the warning message string is 0 and it lists all the libraries. One source suggests that it is a false alarm since no DLL is actually loaded.

    I looked for someone who had a warning Wininit where string = 0 and no list. I found this conversation: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/custom-dynamic-link-libraries-are-being-loaded-for/80497a24-1b98-4705-93cc-32d67b5947d1

    On the second page, there is this suggestion of No.Compromise on May 24, 2010:

    "In the registry, change the value from HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\LoadAppInit_DLLs from 1 to 0, restart and check if the event in question is still connected."

    (Also would check if HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\LoadAppInit_DLLs has been set to 1 and if so, change it to 0).

    Note the value to check is LoadAppInit_DLLs of type REG_DWORD, rather than LoadAppInit_DLLs of type REG_SZ. »

    May 25, 2010, he adds:

    "For the moment, it won't affect anything else, if AppInit_Dlls is empty.  LoadAppInit_Dlls is an indicator that tells Windows to "respect" (load the dll in the AppInint_DLLs) the AppInit_DLLs value.

    Older, pre-Vista apps will not know to LoadAppInit_DLLs a value of 1, so the dll they would add to this place could not be loaded.  It can be considered a good thing, because it is a quick way to get the (good and bad) code loaded into the address space of each loaded process user32.dll (practically everything), which deals with the AppInit_DLLs.

    New apps are common sense for LoadAppInit_DLLs setting so they put 1 and also add components to AppInit_DLLs.

    In your case, it seems that some program added DLLS to AppInit_DLLs, LoadAppInit_DLLs set to 1, and then the dll have been removed (manually? program cleaning? uninstall program?) AppInit_DLLs, but LoadAppInit_DLLs was restored to the default of 0 (or not being is not present at all).

    "So, our exploration indicates that Windows based the decision to record the event on"Custom Dynamic Link Libraries loading for all applications"for the LoadAppInit_DLLs parameter, regardless of the content of the AppInit_DLLs value" (it was marked as a solution but the instructions are in the post on May 24, 2010).

    I did this and the warning of Wininit disappeared.

    It worked after I changed HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\LoadAppInit_DLLs, but I went ahead and changed HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\LoadAppInit_DLLs .

    I never changed anything in the registry before; big no no. But this person instructions and reasoning were clear enough even I could understand and it worked.

    Thank you

    @Roygeorges ,

    Hello again and thanks for posting back.

    First of all, here is a link to your systems support page.

    Computers portable multimedia HP Pavilion dv7-1103ef - Software & Drivers

    Now that you are running a Vista machine.  In other words, it has been chugging along for awhile now.

    First thing you want to do is make a backup of all your data.  Music, Photos, Documents and so on.

    Then do a full restore of the system.  The reason is that your computer is that the data on it are displaced, written and erased many times leave stains on your hard drive that are sales (magnetic shadows of old data).  Thus, your operating system becomes a mess.

    Perform a recovery of the system (Windows Vista) HP

    You should actually do this once a year to keep your system clean and happy.  The computer is no different from any other machine.  As you want to change the oil and clean the car from time to time.  Your laptop must be maintained.

    There is software out there on the market, you can buy that will help you to clean your operating system and maintain your system registry database.  All of this helps.  Especially if you don't know what to look for and what places on your OS with these unnecessary files and the dust bunnies tend to hang out and start causing problems within the system.

    If you do not have the recovery partition or if you are not able to access for some reason this link will be of great help.

    Get a HP USB recovery or HP recovery disc drive

    Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

They said that they had requested by Microsoft/Windows of people in an area to perform a health check on domestic Remote Desktop connection as there had been major virus problems in the area of the canvas. They asked check application warning and errors: my computer, manage, application section. They then talked by a procedure of execution for www.support.me to create the link.

    I run my own COMPUTER business I get out to clients in their own homes.

    I came across this a lot with elderly people taken to the huge amount of money.

    This is a scam and nothing to do with any founded microsoft in the measure of the im aware.

    They take your pc remote access and updates actually spyware / malware on rather than remove it.

    I recommend telling them you have a pc and see how long takes the call.

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6500z CTO NB notebook. My hard drive has failed recently ("SMART detected failure press F1 to continue"). So I called HP customer service to find out if I can get a replacement of their own hard drive. According to them, it takes $533,33. But I find offers at low prices in internet for laptop hard disks. How can I check if these drives are compatible with my system. I have listed below a few readers. Let me know if anyof them are compatible with my laptop. Also, I guess size does matter, or did each hard drive for laptops are standard sizes? Mine is a 15.4 Notebook ". My information from hard drive: 160 GB SATA 5400 RPM hard drive.

    My HP Health Check never actually executed and completed.  It will travel for 3 to 8 seconds and then stops.  The last scan date is empty - as he has NEVER successfully run.  I started it as an administrator and as a standard user and receive the same results.  I tried to download and reinstall the application but had no different result.  I checked the properties of the application, some versions do exist.

    Can anyone offer an overview of this?

  • HP Health Check - topic not found

    I have a Pavilion dv7-1105tx. The HP Health Check asked me to run himself, as he usually does, this morning but at the end he identified a problem of maintenance of high priority that should be addressed (balance of health provision).  Unfortunately, this only did me not the possibility of repairing, it gave me the option re-scan where to seek help.  By selecting the help button it took me to Windows Help and Support where I was advised "topic not found".  My question here is where?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    PS I am running windows vista 32-bit if it helps.

    Hello

    Health check asks to update but does not click on repair?

    Looks like you need to update these two files - try these manually and then run again the health scan and see if the problem goes away. Note, you can see a few new items listed with the new library - what is normal.

    Thank you!

  • HP update cannot replace HP Health Check?

    The reason why I ask because the health check tells me to install 3 the same updates, he set up last month.  So I won't use it.

    I want to make sure that HP Update will analyse all updates of specific HP for my laptop.

    Thank you >

    Question side: with the HP update, do I need to use Windows Update?

    hp health check is unfortunately far from being perfect. It often detects drivers that need to put up-to-date and then installed old drivers, sometimes even older than those identified as being 'too old '.

    Windows Update gives you rarely drivers, but all the critical updates are really critical, when they set security questions and performance inside windows, and there is no one else able to set these except microsoft, via windows/microsoft update (update of microsoft being the cotyledon also providing updates for office and other microsoft - recommended products).

    There are 2 steps to follow in order to stay up to date with drivers when having a hp laptop.

    1 download page check youre laptop (www.hp.com > support & drivers > download drivers and software (and firmware) > type in your model > go > choose your operating system). Here the important updates are bios, quick launch buttons, hp protect tools (for professional laptops), firmwares, audio drivers (unfortunately changed by hp - using the latest almost always requires you to mod those generic for yourself, which is quite complicated) etc.

    2. recognize that hp is too late by offering updates for drivers and get these other places, mainly manufacturers their web sites as intel (chipset, wifi, ethernet, graphics etc drivers). Some drivers offered by HP are best to be avoided completely, as pilots mobile gpu (graphics card). Get the latest from intel, ati or nvidia (get that your gpu is of) and mod them accordingly (http://www.driverheaven.net/modtool.php for ati, http://www.driverheaven.net/nvmodtool.php for nvidia)
