• What cable do need me to a second hard drive on the DV7 - 4104ca. The caddy kit is the wrong cable

  I bought the hard drive enclosure kit (605415-001) to install a second hard drive on my DV7 - 4104ca. The cable supplied with the kit is the same on the main hard drive, but the motherboard has only 1 conntector to cable companies. There is another free connector on the card that uses the same cable that the internal hard drive, but assistance phone HP has no idea what I'm talking about.

  Does anyone know which cable (part number) I need?

  Or even what it is that the type of connector called and then I can source my own cable.

  Thank you!

  You are the very welcome.

• HP Pavilion dv7-6b86us and the printer HP 7520 by a 12 volt inverter current?

  Can I use a sinus prue or modified inverter 12V sine to run the laptop and printer in my truck?

  Hello

  I think you may have meant a pure sine wave instead of "prue Sine.

  The average automotive inverter will provide enough clean power to run the device, but it is not as effectively. You can run your laptop from the inverter, but it won't charge almost dead to full battery while using it. If you can afford to buy a UPS of the top end that feeds a sinewave pure AC your device will work effectively. Take note of the ability of Watts from the inverter, you buy. Best units are manufactured by Whistler and Tripp among others. You might consider tarticle from Consumer Reports in order to understand a little more on the motor inverters and their reading skills. He explained in simple terms.

• HP Pavilion 23-q110na: HP Pavilion 23-q110na and the user manual wifi signal

  Hi, just bought the above and can only get 4 out of 5 bars on my wifi signal strength even though I'm barely 2-3 m away from my Virginmedia Superhub. I have run the Diagnostics network HP, updated drivers Intel Wireless AC-3160 (for a newer version that offers the HP site) and changed all the power plan for maximum performance for the wifi, nothing helps. Is a signal strength less than optimal usual for this PC? Anything else I can try?

  Also, can someone point me in the direction of a user manual? I have a wireless card Intel 7260 in the laptop that replaces this new PC and thought of it exchange for the 3160 in the Pavilion, but I would like a manual that showed how to go for the opening of the Pavilion to upgrades like this one - or the memory or disk, if I chose to down later on the line.

  Thank you

• Pavilion dv7 WC159EA #ABU: the fan RPM increases a lot whenever I plug my battery

  I recently bought a new battery for my laptop and when I plug it, while my charger is plugged, the fan THAT RPM increases as if I use 100% CPU at 100% of RAM. Could it be caused by the new battery?

  I have a hp dv7-3111ea and bought this battery http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/140961851908 .

  Hi @CreaTivEuk,

  Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome.  I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion dv7-3111ea Notebook and questions with the new battery. Here is a link to test and calibrate the battery.

  Plug the power supply directly to a wall outlet works. Do not connect it a power strip, surge arrester, or secondary power source as this could cause and issue.

  The link you sent shows me the correct battery for your HP laptop.

  I recommend to restore the default settings of the BIOS with this document by selecting the reload the default BIOS settings

  Thank you.

• Pavilion DV7-3162nr: HP Pavilion DV7-3162nr does not turn on and the battery light flashes during charging

  I was upgrading my HP DV7-3162nr for windows 10 when all of a sudden the laptop stopped working and would not turn.

  The power adapter is plugged in and battery led was flashing. Now battery led does not at all depend on. When I press the Start button the laptop would try to start then turn off after about one second. However most of the time when when I press the button nothing happens.

  I took out the battery and tried to immediately start the alternating current, but the laptop is like there is no power. The led near the power connector is on the AC adapter is plugged in. I checked the tension between the adapter and it is correct to about 19 volts, I even loaded to 1.5 Amps and voltage remained close to 19 volts. I tried now on the button for more than one minute with applied power (no battery or AC) and no change when I tried to start with just AC.  The battery is old, but shouldn't the laptop run on just the AC adapter with the battery installed? I do not think that windows 10 has done this, but it's a weird coincidense that he died during the upgrade.

  I read about simular problems with flags of HP but nothing exactly like it.  The fact that I can not turn on the laptop with just the adapter seems to be a problem really bad.

  Anyone has any ideas I can try to let me know

  I was able to fix my laptop.

  I thought that it must be a hardware problem, because the laptop would not run just the adapter. And the adapter was good, as I said, he had the right voltage and can support the load.  So after looking at a lot of U tube videos on how to disassemble laptops and looking for schematics on the laptop which I couldn't find. I disassembled the laptop and a beep on the load circuit and it showing. What I found, it was a bad MosFet at the beginning of the charging circuit. The MosFet P/N P0603BDG has shorted door to the Source.  I was able to get the part of China via Ebay for less than $5.00 total and it took a week to arrive.

  Now, the laptop charging the new battery and works very well. I could have found the bad MosFet faster if I had diagrams. Does anyone know if it is possible to get the schematics for this HP laptop? I found a manual and it helped a bit to disassemble the laptop, but he had nothing on the main map.

  This problem is now solved hope it helps someone out there.

• HP Pavilion p7 - 1227c: GDDR5 graphics compatibility question card XFX Radeon R9 380 4GB with HP Pavilion p7 - 127c?

  I bought this Radeon R9 380 4 GB from Ebay and installed it in my computer, but it won't work. Turn fans of the graphics card but the PC screen remains black. I contacted the seller who said that the video card has been tested prior to shipment and that it may be a compatibility issue with my PC. I know that this graphics card has a PCI Express 3.0 interface 16 x so that my PC has a PCI Express 2.0, but I don't think that this could be a problem.

  Do you know if there is a problem of compatibility between the graphics card XFX Radeon R9 380 4 GB of GDDR5 memory and the HP Pavilion p7 - 127C?

  Note: I move the power supply to 650W.

  @Astyx, welcome to the forum.

  You are right that the PCIe 3.0 is backward compatible with PCIe 2.0.  However, your problem is the motherboard.  The Radeon card requires UEFI in the motherboard instead of a Legacy BIOS. The BIOS may not be walking in the UEFI.  PCIe 3.0 cards requiring UEFI will not work in any other location.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  The latest maps to exploit without UEFI are the GTX 660/670.

• PC Pavilion laptop: no sound on Pavilion g6 after installing the new battery CMOS

  I have a Pavilion g6z - 1 d 00 CTO Notebook PC, model A2F43AV number.  It came with Windows 7 Home Premium, and I upgraded the operating system to Windows 7 Pro (64 bit).

  The problem is that I did not sound, either through headphones or the speakers even if the Volume is set at 55. I first noticed the audio problem after replacing the CMOS battery, as the laptop is 4 years old and he gave me intermittent wireless connectivity problems.  After installing the new battery CMOS, I noticed the wireless driver was missing and downloaded/installed.  Everything was fine except the audio.  Then I reset the BIOS but nothing there as the BIOS version is v.49, and it is the most recent.

  I have also downloaded/installed the driver audio and rebooted the PC.  Still, there is no noise.

  Finally, I have checked the audio drivers and the reporting system they work without any problem.

  What should I do next?

  Thanks, Terry

  However, I have provided details below:

  To perform a hard reset on a computer equipped with a removable battery, follow these steps:

  4. Disconnect the power adapter from the computer.

  5. Remove the battery from the compartment to batteries.

  6. Press and hold button power for about 15 seconds, remove any residual electric charge capacitors that protect memory.

  7. Insert the battery and plug the power adapter into the laptop, but do not connect peripheral devices.

  8. Press the power button to turn on the computer.

  9. If a boot menu appears, use the arrow keys to select start Windows normally and then press the Enter key.

  10. After you have reconnected each peripheral device, run Windows Update and HP Support Assistant to update all device drivers.
