Director of HP G56 laptop problem

Hi, I have a laptop HP G56 that my father-in-law told me because he found that he was not keen on computers after all.

I changed its name to mine user account and did my administrator account.

However, I am trying to download a trial version of Adobe Illustrator CS6 from Adobe and I am forced to use the Adobe Download Manager.

It will not install as it keeps giving me the error message that administrator privileges are required. I don't understand how this happens as my user account is permanently set as an administrator.

Any ideas please? I really need this trial version to get up to speed on the software I'm starting a new job using a little more than a week. I had it installed on my Dell laptop, but the hard drive dead ideally lose my downloadable test after a day.

Welcome to Lee.

You want to just download or run the program?

Try to save on your desktop.

Then right-click on the program and run it as admin.

  • My g56 laptop is compatible with the ssd upgrade

    I want to spend my hard drive on my G56 laptop to an SSD. Is this possible?

    Altogether. Any laptop computer or any other that uses a SATA hard drive can work with and benefit from a SATA SSD.

    Ideally, I need the number of entire model, but here is what I think is your Service Manual:

    Manual

    For installation instructions, see page 37. The best and easiest way to do is to use cloning software and a usb Kit of SATA external drive to copy all the contents of the existing on the SSD drive. This is why you must get an SSD at least as large as the amount of data on the drive already more than 20% for comfort. For most people that means getting at least an SSD 240 or 256 and preference a SSD of 500 or 512.

    A 512 GB SSD will put will cost you at least $315 and a 256 will be around $165. Here's a good 256 on newegg.com:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16820147248

    This is the type of SSD, I have my own laptop. You can pair it with a laptop computer upgrade kit which includes the adapter cable.

  • Slow performance HP Pavilion laptop problems

    Very recently, I bought a laptop HP Pavilion. It has Windows 8 and arrived in the mail, no more than a week ago. The first thing I did after that the mandatory installation process was to restore the files from my old laptop (which broke) via ClickFree (currently I have 625 677 GB free) and once that was completed, I installed several programs (office, Vipre, Photoshop, etc.). Apart from that, I did very little about the real hard disk of the computer, since I save everything externally on my ClickFree.

    My problems started occurring rather suddenly, Wednesday morning. In Firefox, I opened a tab for go on Facebook, and scroll the RSS seemed pretty gloomy. I closed the tab, but the slow pace continued in the other tabs, I had opened and then spread to the programs not involving is not the Internet. These problems have worsened gradually.

    On the Internet, the performance is particularly slow. I gave up video players like Netflix, because they freeze the browser to the point of crashing. Page loading is very delayed, even typing this message experiences freeze, despite the fact that I have nothing else running in the browser. There is warning of frequent messages in scripts and plugins does not (although, ironically, these messages are often unresponsive until I finish the script or the offending plugin). It is difficult to do anything on the Internet, such as the loading of pages and tabs of switching may take several minutes. Just clicking can cause the browser to freeze for minutes at a time.

    Off the Internet, programs load extremely slowly, often freezing. Opening files sometimes, with an increase in frequency, translates into a green loading bar at the top of the screen. Sometimes this bar gets stuck and cannot finish, and I can't access the contents of the file; This happened when I tried to open the Panel, to get more specific information about the computer to include in this message. Sometimes programs, such as video players, open without actually playing the video file, or they open at all. Often these programs freeze and sometimes hang; the desktop and the Explorer bar at the bottom of the screen (with the start menu, etc.) are not likely to freeze or disappear, for varying degrees of time. When I came to the computer, CPU utilization averaged about 4-6%, but now he's averaging 40 to 60%.

    Start the computer became too long and hard. The last time that I restarted, I entered my password only to get a completely black screen for at least half an hour; My office and the icons have appeared when I pressed Ctrl-alt-delete. After that, I stopped to turn off the computer (it was not a long time ago). This morning, I opened the laptop to connect, but received only a "Please wait" while the computer has tried to load the login page. It took 10-15 minutes, and then I was finally able to enter my password.

    These issues are getting worse, and I'm sure I'm forgetting several, but I think that what I've included enough to illustrate my problem. This is a new laptop, but it works almost as bad as my old laptop, which became unusable recently and had to be replaced with this one. I can't imagine what is the cause, but I really wish she was fixed. I installed a program called Fix - It Utilities (the installation disk supplied with the notebook) to try to improve the performance of the laptop, but to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello ValentineKills. I understand that the computer is slow. I will do my best to help you!

    This can be caused by a hardware failure or a software/driver/virus conflict. However, we won't know until the diagnosis is made.

    I'll provide a few official documents that provide information on how to speed up the computer. I want that you follow all the steps in all documents. In this way, if the problem exists, it will restrict the root cause. Here are the documents that I want you to try:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2746761

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03460887

    Since you're under Windows 8, I have a further suggestion: complete all updates to Windows, and then upgrade the computer to Windows 8.1. While the operating system is upgraded, try to use the computer and see if the speed is any different.

    Please reply when you have finished troubleshooting. I'm only here to help!

  • Driver for HP 2170p laptop problems

    Hello

    First post on this forum

    I'm decided to sell the 2170p my gf and proceeded to do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit last night and then used other software to attempt to clean the SSD drive.

    Unfortunately, once this process is finished, I noticed that there are a lot of drivers who are no longer present. (Serial Bus Controller, controller of network among others).  I have downloaded the pack of HP driver that would not install correctly and when in Device Manager, the drivers section would not allow me to update or provide details that the drivers are really needed. (They all had an exclamation point). I also noticed that all the HP software standard that appears usually with the laptop disappeared.

    Is there a documented process to get back it, so it is in a similar State to the way it was originally purchased?

    Thanks in advance.

    Update: I found a way to solve all my problems

    By pressing the escape of the splash screen to enter the start menu, and then using F11 to recover HP. Once that windows has been installed again, it's back to the factory settings.

    Many thanks to those who offered help

  • My mother G56 laptop is not booting - HELP - get a cursor blinking in the top middle of the screen!

    Laptop of my mother with all his important files on it is not start.  As soon as it turns on, it basically goes to a black screen with a cursor flashing at the top.  I tried the instructions here to use the windows recovery image to join the reactive BACK and run the commands provided in fixboot back... but they do not work.  The computer is a laptop Nr G56-125 only about a year, the operating system is Windows 7 Premium 64-bit.  I tried also to restore system but get the same when put on

    Hello:

    You tried to access the recovery from the repair CD image you did and it did not work?

    If you can not get anything to work, then I of workaround that you can use to get W7 back there.

    If you let just install without delete and format the drive when Windows installs, it will create a windows.old folder and you can get the files from your mother from the windows.old folder.  Also in the windows.old folder, there should be a SWSetup folder. That the folder contains the major part of the program and the installation files of the driver that came with the PC.  Copy this folder off the coast for more security and use it to reinstall all the programs supplied with the PC that you want to get back out there.

    Here is the workaround...

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • HP 15 laptop: problem with the touchpad and the key "stuck."

    Hello!
     
    Last weekend, I have an irritating problem with my HP 15 laptop. Bought two years ago and upgrades to Windows 10 a year ago.
     
    First of all, my touchpad started to not work properly. It "freezes" and I can't use it until I click the ESC key, but it doesn't last and "freezes" again a few seconds later. Then, everytime I open a window where there is a text box (Start menu, edge browser, Control Panel, etc.), the number 5 is entered automatically and permanently, as if the button 5 has been blocked. I did a quick check and button 5 do not seem physically stuck.
     
    Yesterday, I restored the system to the factory settings, so I'm back to 8.1 for Windows and then upgraded to Windows 10. Everything seems to work fine, but this morning, the problem was back. Is there something I can do? What is the problem caused by Windows 10 or the computer? Should I restore it to Windows 8.1? Everything worked great til last weekend, I don't know what that was.
     
    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Welcome to the HP support community @gouch3.

    I understand that you have a problem with the keyboard and the touchpad on your laptop from HP 15.

    Have you tried to use a keyboard external and mouse at all?

    Have you tried to go to Safe Mode to see if the problems persist in there?

    Have you tried to perform a material or forced reset Reset?

    Did you do a test of material?

    Have you updated your drivers?

    It could be a driver problem to be able to look at that for you, I need your model number. I wish I could give you an answer or not, but at this point without the troubleshooting results and the model number, it is difficult for me to say.

    I can say that if everything works in point 8.1 of Windows without problem, the driver TROUBLESHOOTING is a great place to start. Please try to follow these steps for the keyboard and the touchpad of troubleshooting:

    • Beginning
    • Search for Device Manager
    • Search results, open Device Manager.
    • Click on display
    • Show hidden devices.
    • Click the arrow next to keyboards.
    • Right click on the name of the keyboard device.
    • Select uninstall.
    • Continue deleting the names of devices in the category keyboards until the feature of all the names have been uninstalled.
    • Restart the laptop twice.

    Touchpad:

    • Type of research, "Device Manager."
    • Click on Device Manager,
    • Expand mice and other pointing devices.
    • Right click on the TouchPad,
    • Click on uninstall.
    • Restart the computer laptop twice,
    • Reinstall the TouchPad card.

    I found a document of troubleshooting for you to try also called Portable keyboard troubleshooting. Please be sure to follow the steps described in this document.

    The best document I have for TouchPad problems is the use and troubleshooting of the TouchPad and ClickPad document. 

    Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant, if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers that need to put up-to-date.

    This is a great question other clients may also be questioned. When we came to a resolution, please share what has worked for you with others by marking this post as an acceptable Solution.

    If you need assistance, I would be more than happy to continue to help you. Please re-post with the results of the resolution of the problems. Could you please also provide your model number (How can I find my model number or product number?)

    I guess it's a problem with the keyboard...

    the only thing you can try is to open your laptop and connected to search if the keyboard cable is always good, otherwise, you can install a new keyboard...

    Next time you see one of your devices in the Device Manager with the exclamation right click on it and go to properties and there should be a State of the device that will tell us the problem. Also install your software from MediaTek Bluetooth driver and then try to connect. Also check using Bluetooth devices for more information.

  • HP 15-D103TX computer laptop problem: Windows does not detect the dedicated graphics card

    Hi all

    I recently bought a laptop HP 15 - D103TX , which is held responsible for Free on BACK. I have updated my Windows 8 operating system and have installed all the drivers from the HP website. The laptop has dedicated 2 GB Nvidia Geforce 820 M graphics card.

    But when I checked, I found that Windows displays the graphic memory dedicated only 0 MB.

    As you can see in the screenshot, it shows as 0MB dedicated graphics memory.

    Anyone can clear me, upward on this subject? Is it a driver problem, or what is Windows 8 going crazy.

    Thank you very much in advance!

    Kind regards

    Brahmnoor

    Okay, I found the solution. In fact, the Haswell Intel i5 processor that my 15 HP D103TX has also comes with an Intel 4600 GPU intregated. So when I do normal tasks, the GPU intregated works, so Windows does not display the NVIDIA GPU 820M, but when I play a game or doing intense graphics work, he switches to the NVIDIA one.

    In fact, it makes sense, because it preserves the battery of the laptop.

    Credit: found this solution on the NVIDIA support forums.

  • HP Envy 17 Laptop: problem with DVD/CD player

    I recently bought a laptop HP Envy 17 refurbished to replace my laptop screen Acer of 18 ".

    He had Win 8.1 on it I then upgraded to win 10.

    Everything worked as it should, including the CD when he arrived, and after the upgrade.

    As I was used to having 2 hard drives on my Acer and did not find a drive for the HP cable I used one of them to replace the DVD unit

    http://www.Amazon.com/SANOXY-Caddy-12-7mm-universal-DVD-ROM/DP/B0056EW4A4

    It worked perfectly.

    I then found a drive cable of HP on eBay second hand and when it arrived I installed the second disc in the DVD player OK and re-installed hard drive Bay - although I expected to replace it later with the Hard Drive caddy so I might have 3 internal drives.

    This is where the problem started.

    Although the second disc showed now and available to use, the DVD player is no longer appears in the Explorer or in Device Manager, even if I remov the second car of the Bay.

    Can someone suggest any way how to fix this problem?

    TIA

    UPDATE:

    4th restart the laptop cured the problem and the DVD is now appear.

    Yet once replaced caddy of DVD with a hard drive Caddy in his place and I have now 3 internal hard drives on my laptop.

    Well happy!
