• Could not open the Bluetooth settings HP DV8T-1000

  I am running Windows 7 64 bit.

  I have the HP DV8T-1000 with built-in bluetooth.

  Software for bluetooth in installed (actually I uninstalled and reinstalled).  Everything said "the device is working properly" However if I right click on the bluetooth icon, and then click "open bluetooth settings" nothing happens.

  When I click on see bluetooth devices we just search forever and can't find anything.

  When I click on add a device, he never finds my Motorola S305 headset detectable.

  I checked on the HP site and I have the latest drivers installed.

  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.  I think if I could get in the bluetooth settings, maybe I could solve the problem. Who knows.

• HP Pavilion DV8T-1200: HP Quick Launch buttons going haywire... Anyway... in 2016

  There is just a follow-up of all posts of 2010 and 2011, I have still a dv8t-1200 and I scoured the internet for a way to disable completely the keys to quick launch on my dv8t as static or whatever it is driving me crazy, and I will just buy a wireless adapter external if I need to.

  I heard someone post briefly how you can disable everything somewhere, but you will lose your connection Wireless too... Do you know how to do this, because with a wifi usb device, I might be able to solve everything.

  Thank you

  OK, update:

  I've unlocked the envelope of keyboard with led bar/quick launch keys and I unplugged the Ribbon on the buttons of the LED cable, and that definitely solved the problem...

  New question.  What should I do with the disconnected Ribbon?  Should I type down or anything before the keyboard together?   (edit: for the ribbon cable packing tape works fine)

  Thanks for possible solutions, but that was easy to do and the problem will be solved, and I don't like about LED bar features.

• WiFi on/off button and indicator acute/severe problems in HP Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO

  I bought a HP Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO in December.  Within a month, a hard drive has failed and another was provided under the guarantee.

  But now there are new problems. First of all, the Treble/Bass indicator keeps popping up without reason and the bar keeps increase or decrease. Then there is the problem of Wifi. It seems that my Wifi continues to go without reason. I thought that the two issues were linked. But I'm beginning to see that my Wifi turned off only when the laptop is moved. Just the slightest movement will come out, BUT it happens every time the laptop is moved.

  I also noticed that when these problems are occurring, the 'secret' or the Wifi icon on the media smart bar (above the keyboard) will not match the icons on the screen. Twice the mute icon was red in the smart media bar, but the volume was on. Sometimes the Wifi went nuts and off, because of traffic and then the Wifi light turned back to blue on the media smart bar, but wifi is always off.

  Once both the 'secret' and wifi in the smart bar icons does not match what it says on the screen. WiFi is turned off, but the icon was blue. The speakers were on, but the silent icon was red. I activated the wifi back and the mute icon on the awesome bar, went from red to white.

  I am Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit slot.

  Any thoughts? Ideas? I really need to fix this problem because the Wifi problem that happens at least 20 times a day.

  FOUND THE FIX! For 'problem with cursor high Pavilion dv8 (treble/ba ss control) of the bar '.

• Is it possible to run a 3rd monitor in my Pavilion dv8t

  Is it possible to run a 3rd monitor in my Pavilion dv8t

  Hey gogydog,

  You can have a maximum of 3 displays with this unit (depending on your configuration): a connected to HDMI, a connected VGA and LCD integrated Notepad. So, 2 external and 1 integrated display. It is not possible to connect 3 external displays, unless you use a third party (such as Matrox DualHead) material, however the quality/compatibility is not guaranteed.

• Is there a replacement for Digital Persona software? I have 1000 DV8T Win 7 Pro 64-bit thank you!

  I have the latest digital version of Persona on the HP website, but it is no longer supported on Firefox or Chrome.  The latest version of Firefox it worked with is no longer in charge and crashing.  Most of my site connections are made by fingerprint, so it's important to me.

  I have a quad core DV8T 1000 running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit edition.

  Any suggestion would be appreciated!

  Thank you.

  Hey, Crowe,.

  Yes, there is a replacement.  Finally.

  I tested on a HDX18t under Windows 7 Ultimate - 64-bit.

  I'm about to order some more of them to test on a desktop computer and a dv9000...

  Edits January 29, 2014 - AuthenTec is swallowed by Apple, Mini-Fingerprinter is now available at Softex, the people who brought us HP SimplePass Version 8.x

  You must buy a fingerprinter $ 10 (cost US) and use the AuthenTec TrueSuite software.  Looks like and acts like the software of HP SimplePass 5.1.x (first version - primitive and meh, but it works!)

  ==========================================================================

  Procedure of Installation TrueSuite SimplePass Eikon mini - update of Firefox

   

  AuthenTec Fingerprinter Mini Eikon

  The Eikon Mini Fingerprinter is about 10 US $ + shipping costs (about 6 dollars).  It comes in the mail.  Once you have the only piece of hardware, the software is downloaded.  Hold off or just download the software and try it - access code is on the card provided with the fingerprinter.

  The software defines right up.  Assuming you are running Windows 7 or Windows 8 +, it should be virtually "load" and "go".  I have entered a few fingers, tried connecting windows, restarted several times...

  USB Mini (by Softex) fingerprint reader

  This software has been tested with Firefox and is supposed to work with Chrome.  There is no reason why it will not work with Chrome.  The installation is probably the same - SimplePass follows the same rules regardless of the browser with which it is associated.

  • Install the Mini Fingerprinter port in any USB 2.0 (or 3.0) that should be
  • Download AuthenTec software
  • He Set up, if you like - test connection to Windows...
  • You can update Firefox - at least off V26.  Lock it down for updates (just in case), if you wish.  It's completely Softex software, so Firefox can simply continue to work, but I don't trust Firefox - they update frequently for my taste and things just stop working too often for my taste.
  • NOTE: No Addon FingerFox is used with this version.
  • You can specify that you want to update all your Addons, with the exception of Digital Persona.  You don't have to actually remove, just do not select to 'activate' the addon during the update of Firefox.  It will not work and just delays the update in a few seconds.

  After Firefox update...

  • If you have already installed the TrueSuite software: you'll probably have to "Reinstall" the software TrueSuite still after you update to Firefox.  The driver is OK.  Reinstall the software again over what is on the system.  When the TrueSuite reinstall menu box opens, tell him to 'Fix' the installation.  Regardless of the options you have done previously, that's to say, the windows login, will stick.

  Now you should be able to create a Webcard for, say, your e-mail address or another site... maybe your user name for this forum.  Test and repeat...

  Limitations:   The only problem with this version of TrueSuite software I have found so far is the primitive character of the software compared to the "HP" style more solid software SimplePass 5.3.x - 5.4. + relative.  5.2 TrueSuite is reminiscent of HP SimplePass 5.1.x.

  Assuming that you can get this Mini Eikon where you are, it can work well and let you into the 21st century with real SimplePass connections.

  The Mini also works with HP SimplePass Versions 6.x and the new Softex wrote HP SimplePass Versions 8.x

  ==========================================================================================

  Let me know what you think...

  I hope this helps!

  Good luck!

  Click on the star of congratulations !

  It's a nice way of saying 'Thank you' for help.

  Although I strive to reflect best practices of HP, I do not work for HP.

• HP Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO: treble/bass indicator keeps popping up on

  Just moved HP Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO and the treble/bass indicator keeps popping up with no set position - required bar increase or decrease. Very annoying. Any ideas?

  Thank you

  Jeff

  Hi all

  I sent the compuer back and detailed the litany of problems. He was returned about three weeks ago and worked fine. I didn't report again just in case something turned up. Also, I hope I have this jinx not to realize that everything is ok.

  The form returns with the laptop has enabled (reconfigured) hard drive, an extra box indicating the update of the BIOS and verified where keyboard technology has added 'Restraint' in the keyboard area. I suspect that it has something to do with the bass/trebl command.

  • No more noisy fan (when it turns cool it is very quiet).
  • No more wild and crazy popup Treble/Bass
  • Wireless begins to backup on the awakening from the sleep (one of the techs told me that the wireless was not supposed to return during the restart of sleep.)

  Later,.

• dv8t "plugged in, not charging".

  I have a HP Pavilion dv8t. In recent weeks, I noticed that the battery in the taskbar indicator shows is no longer a full charge. While it is plugged in, it will display the icon of little next to the battery, but if I mouse over the message is "plugged in, not charging." The sound level seem to fall slowly, when I first noticed the problem is 39% and now it's 27%. No doubt it is still supported to some extent since I used it for weeks, more than enough to drain the battery completely. I have 2 power supplies and the problem occurs at the same time. If I had to guess, I would say that the battery is going bad. It would be nice if I could confirm that it is really the question before you spend money on a battery. To put it otherwise, I definitely want to spend money on a battery if it does not solve the problem. So my questions are:

  1. How can I determine what is the cause of the problem without Exchange of parts?

  2. assuming that the problem is the battery, is there documentation for the replacement of the battery (HP provides a service manual for its customers, for example)?

  3. even if the problem is the battery, how can I determine which battery to buy?

  EDIT: I have a dv8t-1200. The sticker also shows product WF681AV.

  Thus, these last 2 tests produced some interesting results:

  1. the laptop works very well under the power with no battery pack.

  2. replace the battery seems to have solved the problem. The battery is now charging and the battery indicator is solid.

  So I guess that's a wrap.

• The modernization Pavilion dv8t 16 GB memory will cause problems?

  I have a HP Pavilion dv8t Quad Edition Series Notebook PC, product number: VF836AV. The maximum amount of memory that can be installed in it is 8 GB, according to the operating instructions. I recently replaced the original 8 GB with 16 GB of memory, and the 16 GB is recognized automatically. The Windows system information report now shows that the installed physical memory is 16.0 GB and total physical memory is 16.0 GB. In addition, the original memory installed in the PC has been Crucial DDR3 PC3-10600 of type, and I replaced it with a Crucial DDR3 PC3-12800 memory of type. However, the newly installed 12800 DDR3 memory does not work at its full rated speed, it runs at the same speed as the original memory. There seems to be no problem with the configuration of the improved memory, but I can't help but wonder why the manual (and even Crucial memory Advisory tool) says that the maximum installed memory should be 8 GB. Memory of 16 GB currently installed will cause damage or some other problem in the long term?

  Hello:

  A few other people have installed 16 GB of memory in their notebooks with 1st generation i7 quad cores and reported no problems at all.

  I would be not the least bit concerned the performance of 16 GB in your mobile life.

  The reason why that memory does not run at 1600 MHz is...

  Memory can only run as fast as the processor FSB speed which, in the case of yours is 1333 MHz (10600).

  If the 12800 memory simply downlclocked to match the speed of the processor.

  Not until you get to the Intel 3rd generation I series with an Intel 7 series chipset processors memory runs at 1600 MHz.

  So there is nothing wrong at all to your situation.

• HP DV8t: Problems of migration origin to new SSD HD Win7 OS.

  Hi all!

  I have a laptop HP DV8t. The laptop computer was purchased with Windows 7 64-bit and 2 x 500 GB hard drives. I would like to replace the hard drive with a 80 GB Intel SSD.

  Immediate problem, it's that I can just install Windows 7 on SSD because the recovery disks will not accept a smaller than 500 GB HARD drive.

  What I've done so far:

  Fact reset factory + formatted hard drives.

  Replaced with SSD 80 GB secondary hard drive, then the Acronis Migrate tool used to clone the content of the main drive to SSD.

  Put SSD drive as primary drive, replace (empty) 500 GB secondary drive.

  Problem: when connecting, I get a blue screen that says "this version of windows is not original" and can't do anything.

  I try again. Repeat the process until the SSD as drive, but now as secondary drive, put the drive of 500 GB (with BONES) where I cloned the operating system.

  No blue screen during the connection. Things seem to be ok, I see the windows logo on the SSD drive in my computer so assume that windows runs on the SSD. Problem: Now the windows installer will not work. Most of the programs are not installed, which gives an error to windows installer. I can't update the installer online because it is now suspended indefinitely. Also I can't update things such as .net framework (more error installation). This essentailly means that the laptop does not work because I can't run anything on this subject.

  All the tips are greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance

  It works and notice I said 'will' and not 'must '. It should work though, as I've done it before.

  Download the ISO of Windows 7 Home Premium files and create the W7 installation disc (burn) a detail of W7.

  http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

  Version what ever you use it must match what the computer came with, so your W7 product key will work on the underside of the laptop.

  If you need help with burning ISO files or make the drive, post again _ don't forget to verify the disc after burning or it won't work.

  Follow this tutorial to install W7.

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/OperatingSystems/SS/Windows-7-clean-install-part-1.htm

  The tutorial has you erase the drive to install W7 on, it is important to remove the entire disk, not just format it. After you remove the drive to let the W7 disk format automatically, don't do it yourself.

  In your case, you have made such a mess trying to install W7, you must use the W7 installation disc to remove all information damaged on the drive. If there are any partitions on the disk, delete those too. You'll end up creating "Unallocated" space on the entire disk, and that's what you want.

  Continue Setup and install it as a trial, when it's done, right click on "Computer" and select "Properties".

  At the bottom of this page to find 'change product key '. A click on it and follow the directions to enter the product key for the laptop.

  The instructions above are very important so follow them exactly or it won't work. It will take about 20 minutes to install W7 and 2 hours to download the ISO from Digital River files.

  First, install your chipset driver.

  Start the automatic driver finder to install the most recent.

  http://www.Intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect?IID=dc_iduu

  He'll also find one for your Intel WiFi card as appropriate.

  Then install your video driver, here a direct from NVIDIA.

  http://www.nvidia.com/object/notebook-Win7-WinVista-64bit-296.10-WHQL-driver.html

  Install the rest of your drivers here.

  http://Forum.NotebookReview.com/HP-drivers-software-Forum/404164-drivers-HP-DV6-2xxx-dv7-3XXX-DV8-HDX16-HDX18-Intel.html

  Also, install technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver from the link above.

  Install the drivers in the order that I posted to them. If you need help with the rest of the drivers or get the hot key bezel to work (bass and treble _ volume _ eject) and then validate again.

  Do not use the command utility of tone on your support page, it is corrupted and it will not solve HP.

  In all cases, save the installation on the desktop files and install them from there, not in a temporary folder.

  You don't have secondary hard disk, none of this has nothing to do with it, it is only used as a storage drive. When you follow the tutorial it will show up there (you'll see what I mean, when you get there), just ignore it and only deal with your new SSD.

  I have a dv8 so I know exactly what to do.

• DV8T HP Quick Launch Button problems

  On my HP Pavilion DV8T, my quick launch buttons keep it up. My wireless light turns off by itself, and in same time, my treble and bass will fluctuate. When this happens, if I type something in that she left the window, I'm and a treble/bass window appears. Also sometimes, like now, my mute button and my wireless button will not even appear or work. I have tried everything I can think, I have reformatted the hard drive, downloaded the drivers, and I've even sent in HP and they doesn't fix it. Any ideas would be appreciated.
